Type of Target
Clinical trial
Action against Disease Model AMG 108 Drug Info IL-1 receptor (IL-1R) blockage was highly efficacious in reducing inflammation, both in acute and advanced stages. In antigen-induced arthritis, cartilage damage, erosion progression, and propagation of inflammation are dependent on IL-1. In a recent study of immune complex arthritis, IL-1-deficient mice were strongly protected. In a novel transgenic mouse model of adjuvant arthritis, a pure T-cell model, mice deficient in the IL-1R antagonist displayed uncontrolled IL-1 activity and developed spontaneous T-cell-dependent autoimmune arthritis [1]
