Identification
Name Omalizumab
Accession Number DB00043 (BIOD00081, BTD00081)
Type biotech
Description A recombinant DNA-derived humanized IgG1k monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to human immunoglobulin E (IgE). Xolair is produced by a Chinese hamster ovary cell suspension culture in a nutrient medium containing the antibiotic gentamicin.
Structure
Categories (*)
Molecular Weight 145058.2000
Groups approved
Monoisotopic Weight Not Available
Pharmacology
Indication For treatment of asthma caused by allergies
Mechanism of action Xolair binds to IgE (a class of antibodies normally secreted in allergic responses), which prevents their binding to mast cells and basophils.
Absorption Not Available
Protein binding Not Available
Biotransformation Most likely removed by opsonization via the reticuloendothelial system.
Route of elimination Liver elimination of IgG includes degradation in the liver reticuloendothelial system (RES) and endothelial cells. Intact IgG is also excreted in bile.
