Comment: Ziltivekimab (MEDI5117) is a humanized monoclonal antibody directed against the IL-6 ligand. It was developed to inhibit pro-inflammatory IL-6 signalling in conditions that are associated with systemic inflammation, including atherosclerosis, chronic kidney disease, and rheumatoid arthritis [2], and it has also been explored for anti-tumour activity [4]. The Fc domain of ziltivekimab has been engineered to extend its half-life (by increasing affinity for FcRn), to support once-monthly administration [1].
