Frequently asked questions about PF-06438179

What is PF-06438179 used for?

PF-06438179 is an investigational monoclonal antibody being studied for use in rheumatoid arthritis and in healthy volunteers. In clinical trials, it is being evaluated in combination with methotrexate for active rheumatoid arthritis, and as a pharmacokinetics study in healthy subjects.

What does PF-06438179 target?

PF-06438179 is a monoclonal antibody that targets tumor necrosis factor (TNF). It is being developed as a potential biosimilar to infliximab, and its mechanism involves binding to TNF to modulate inflammatory responses.

Who makes PF-06438179?

PF-06438179 is being developed by Pfizer, Inc., which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol PFE. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy.

What phase is PF-06438179 in?

PF-06438179 is in Phase 1 clinical development. While one Phase 3 trial has been completed, the overall development program is currently in Phase 1, and the drug remains investigational and not yet approved.

What clinical trials is PF-06438179 in?

PF-06438179 has been studied in two completed trials. NCT01844804 is a Phase 1 pharmacokinetics study in healthy volunteers, and NCT02222493 is a Phase 3 study in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Both trials are completed.

Is PF-06438179 the same as infliximab?

PF-06438179 is being studied as a potential biosimilar to infliximab, meaning it is designed to be highly similar to the reference product. However, it is a distinct investigational drug and has not been approved as interchangeable with infliximab.
