Frequently asked questions about Humira

What is Humira used for in rheumatoid arthritis?

Humira is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, a chronic inflammatory joint condition. It is a monoclonal antibody developed by Pfizer, Inc. and studied in adult patients with a physician's diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. The clinical program enrolled adults 18 years and older, including both men and women, across multiple countries.

What does Humira target?

Humira targets TNF, or tumor necrosis factor, and acts as an inhibitor of this inflammatory signaling molecule. By binding TNF, the monoclonal antibody is designed to reduce the inflammatory activity associated with rheumatoid arthritis. This targeted approach is the basis for its study in immunology indications.

Who makes Humira?

Humira is developed by Pfizer, Inc., which trades under the ticker PFE. The company sponsored the clinical study of Humira in rheumatoid arthritis. Pfizer is the developer listed for this asset in the immunology therapeutic area.

What phase is Humira in?

Humira is in Phase 2 clinical development for rheumatoid arthritis. The completed Phase 2 study evaluated the drug in patients with a physician's diagnosis of the condition. It is an investigational monoclonal antibody in this program rather than an approved product for this specific study setting.

What clinical trials is Humira in?

Humira has been studied in the Phase 2 trial NCT00550446, titled A Phase 2 Study For Patients With A Physician's Diagnosis Of Rheumatoid Arthritis. The trial was completed, enrolled 386 participants, was randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, and ran across the United States, Brazil, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Czechia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Mexico, Romania, Slovakia, South Korea, and Ukraine.

Is Humira the same as adalimumab?

Yes, Humira is also known as adalimumab and adalimumab-EU. These names refer to the same monoclonal antibody asset. Readers searching for adalimumab or adalimumab-EU are looking at the same drug that Pfizer, Inc. is developing under the Humira name.
