Bimekizumab is under clinical development by UCB and currently in Pre-Registration for Ankylosing Spondylitis (Bekhterev’s Disease). According to GlobalData, Pre-Registration drugs for Ankylosing Spondylitis (Bekhterev’s Disease) have a 100% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Marketed. GlobalData’s report assesses how Bimekizumab’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.
GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.
Bimekizumab overview
Bimekizumab (Bimzelx) is a humanised IgG1monoclonal antibody produced in a genetically engineered Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line by recombinant DNA technology. It is formulated as solution for injection in pre-filled syringe and pre-filled pen for subcutaneous route of administration. Bimzelx is indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adults who are candidates for systemic therapy. Bimzelx is indicated for the treatment of plaque psoriasis, generalized pustular psoriasis and psoriatic erythroderma in patients who are not sufficiently responding to existing treatments
Bimekizumab (UCB-4940) is under development for the treatment of immunological diseases including non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, plaque psoriasis in adults and pediatrics, hidradenitis suppurativa and psoriatic arthritis. The drug candidate is a new biological entity (NBE). It is administered intravenously and as subcutaneous solution. The therapeutic candidate is a humanized monoclonal antibody against IL17A and IL17F. It was also under development for the treatment of non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis and moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis (intravenous).
