NIKTIMVO
NIKTIMVO (axatilimab-csfr) is a colony stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R) blocker indicated for the treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). It is specifically approved for use in adult and pediatric patients weighing at least 40 kg who have failed at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. This medication provides a therapeutic option for patients whose condition has not responded to previous systemic treatments.
How NIKTIMVO Works
Axatilimab-csfr is a monoclonal antibody that binds to colony stimulating factor-1 receptors (CSF-1R) found on monocytes and macrophages. By blocking these receptors, the drug reduces the levels of circulating proinflammatory and profibrotic monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages. This action inhibits the activity of pathogenic macrophages in tissues, addressing the biological drivers of the disease.
