Description
PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY This assay employs the quantitative indirect enzyme immunoassay technique. Recombinant Human IL6 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards or samples are pipetted into the wells and any Olokizumab present is bound by the immobilized protein. After washing away any unbound substances, a biotin-labeled Mouse Anti-Human IgG antibody is added to the wells. After washing away any unbound substances, Streptavidin-HRP is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Olokizumab bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
Applications
Used for the quantitative determination of Olokizumab concentration in serum and plasma.

Precision
Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay): <10%
Three samples of known concentration were tested sixteen times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays): <15%
Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty four separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.

Background
Olokizumab (CDP6038), a humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific for the interleukin-6 (IL-6) cytokine, is currently in development for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It targets the IL-6 cytokine rather than the receptor, and selectively blocks the final assembly of the signalling complex. In Phase I (healthy volunteers) and IIa (patients with RA on MTX) clinical trials, olokizumab was well tolerated after intravenous and subcutaneous delivery with a median plasma half-life of approximately 31 days, 76% bioavailability and no apparent antidrug antibody-mediated clearance. Olokizumab also markedly reduced free IL-6 levels and suppressed C-reactive protein (CRP) up to 12 weeks after single-dose subcutaneous administration in patients with RA.
