Ustekinumab in treatment of Crohn’s disease: design, development, and potential place in therapy

Abstract: Crohn’s disease is characterized by a dysregulation of both innate and adaptive immunity responses. Interleukin-12/23 (IL-12/23) pathway has been found to be a major driver of inflammation in adaptive immune responses. Ustekinumab is a fully human immunoglobulin G1 kappa monoclonal antibody that blocks the p40 subunit of IL-12 and IL-23 and prevents their interaction with their cell surface receptor and further cytokine activation. It is currently approved in the management of plaque psoriasis and psoriatic ar… Show more

“…The pathogenesis and inflammation of CD are thought to be induced by interleukin‐12/23 receptor‐mediated stimulation of Th‐1 and Th‐17 cytokine pathways . UST is known to inhibit activation of Th‐1 cells and further activation of Th‐17 by preventing binding of IL‐12 and IL‐23 with IL‐12 receptor β1 . In clinical settings, UST is expected to induce sustained clinical remission in patients with moderate to severe active CD .…”

“…Mixed results have also been reported in other inflammatory diseases. Ustekinumab, risankizumab and MEDI2070 (anti‐p19 monoclonal antibody) have demonstrated effectiveness for the treatment of Crohn's disease . Ustekinumab was not effective in treating symptoms of multiple sclerosis, although it was well tolerated …”
