Pharmacology
Nemolizumab-ilto is a humanized IgG2 monoclonal antibody that inhibits IL-31 signaling by binding selectively to IL-31 receptor alpha (IL-31 RA); IL-31 is a cytokine involved in pruritus, inflammation, epidermal dysregulation, and fibrosis.
Upadacitinib is a JAK inhibitor that modulates intracellular signaling by preventing JAK-mediated phosphorylation and activation of STATs, thereby influencing immune cell function and hematopoiesis.
