ILUMYA
ILUMYA is an interleukin-23 antagonist indicated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in adult patients. It is specifically intended for individuals who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy. As a monoclonal antibody, it provides a targeted therapeutic option for managing this chronic inflammatory skin condition.
How ILUMYA Works
Tildrakizumab-asmn functions as a humanized monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of interleukin-23 (IL-23). By binding to this subunit, the drug prevents IL-23 from interacting with its specific receptor. This inhibition blocks the release of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines that are involved in inflammatory and immune responses.

ILUMYA Target & Pathway
ProTarget
A cytokine that promotes Th17 cell development and maintenance. IL-23 is upstream of IL-17 in the inflammatory cascade driving psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease. Blocking IL-23 provides sustained control of these conditions.
