Risankizumab (Skyrizi®), a humanised IgG monoclonal antibody that targets the p19 subunit of IL-23, was developed by AbbVie in collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim for the treatment of immunological and inflammatory disorders. In March 2019, risankizumab received its first global approval in Japan for the treatment of adults with psoriasis vulgaris, psoriatic arthritis, generalized pustular psoriasis and erythrodermic psoriasis. Risankizumab has also received approval in the USA, Canada and the EU for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, and is in phase 3 development for this indication as well as psoriatic arthritis in several countries worldwide. Phase 2 and 3 clinical evaluation of risankizumab is ongoing in several countries in the treatment of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Risankizumab is also in phase 2 development for the treatment of atopic dermatitis globally. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of risankizumab leading to this first approval for psoriasis vulgaris, psoriatic arthritis, generalized pustular psoriasis and erythrodermic psoriasis.

FDA Approved Drugs: Changes to Approved Drugs

Post-approval, manufacturers may modify an approved new or generic drug product. Such modifications can encompass alterations in the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API), manufacturing process, formulation, batch size, manufacturing site, and container closure system (FDA Guidance for Industry, April 2004). Often, a drug product may undergo multiple changes.These modifications require careful evaluation to determine their potential impact on the drug product's identity, strength, quality,...

Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Introduction to Global Positioning System

The Global Positioning System (GPS) revolutionized positioning on Earth, providing precise location data through satellite ranging. The GPS system was developed in 1978 by the U.S. Department of Defense  for military use, and it became available for civilian applications in 1983, transforming fields including navigation, fleet management, and time synchronization for telecommunications systems.GPS consists of satellites in medium Earth orbit, about 20,200 kilometers above the surface,...

Global Regulatory Systems

Global regulatory systems in bacteria enable rapid and coordinated responses to environmental changes by integrating sensory inputs with gene expression, ensuring efficient adaptation to fluctuating conditions. Key global regulatory mechanisms include regulons, two-component systems, sigma factors, and secondary messengers.Regulons and Global RegulatorsA regulon is a collection of genes and operons controlled by a common global regulator. These regulators enable bacteria to prioritize resource...

Errors in Global Positioning System

Global Positioning System (GPS) technology has revolutionized navigation and positioning, but its accuracy is often compromised by various errors. These errors, stemming from environmental, satellite, and receiver-related factors, require careful mitigation to ensure reliable performance across applications.Atmospheric ErrorsGPS signals travel through the Earth’s ionosphere and troposphere, introducing delays which affect accuracy. The ionosphere is strongly influenced by charged particles,...
