Ustekinumab is a human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the bioactivity of human IL-12 and IL-23 by preventing shared p40 from binding to the IL-12R?1 receptor protein expressed on the surface of immune cells. IL-12 and IL-23 have been implicated as important contributors to the chronic inflammation that is a hallmark of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, among many other autoimmune diseases. ?BAT2206 is Bio-Thera's fourth biosimilar to enter a global phase III clinical study,? commented Dr. Shengfeng Li, Founder and CEO of Bio-Thera Solutions. ?The advancement of BAT2206 into a global Phase III study demonstrates Bio-Thera?s continued commitment to developing biosimilars of important innovative drugs to expand patient access at lower costs.? Bio-Thera Solutions is developing several additional proposed biosimilars, including a bevacizumab biosimilar and a tocilizumab biosimilar that have both successfully completed global Phase III clinical trials. Bio-Thera Solutions is also pursuing biosimilar versions of golimumab, mepolizumab and dupilumab.
