Clinical monograph: mono
Monoclonal antibodies are laboratory-engineered molecules designed to target specific antigens in the body. They are derived from immune cells and can mimic the immune system's ability to fight off harmful pathogens such as viruses. These agents are widely used in various therapeutic applications, including oncology, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases.
Indications
- Cancer (various types)
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Multiple sclerosis
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Psoriasis
- Hypercholesterolemia
- Infectious diseases (e.g., COVID-19)
Dosage
Children: Refer to the BNF for Children for paediatric dosing information, as it varies based on the specific monoclonal antibody and the condition being treated.
Adults: Refer to the specific monoclonal antibody product information for adult dosage, as it varies based on indication and specific agent used.
Mechanism of action
Monoclonal antibodies work by binding to specific proteins on the surface of cells. This binding can block the activity of certain proteins, mark cells for destruction by the immune system, or deliver cytotoxic agents directly to target cells. The mechanism of action varies depending on the specific monoclonal antibody but often involves modulation of immune response, inhibition of cell proliferation, and induction of apoptotic pathways.
Pharmacodynamics
The pharmacodynamics of monoclonal antibodies is primarily characterized by their specificity and affinity for targeted antigens. This leads to a variety of effects, including neutralization of pathogens, blockade of receptor-ligand interactions, and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. The clinical effects depend on the disease being treated and the specific antibody's action, such as inducing tumor regression in cancer or reducing inflammation in autoimmune diseases.
Pharmacokinetics
Monoclonal antibodies typically have a long half-life, allowing for less frequent dosing. They are generally administered intravenously or subcutaneously, with absorption and distribution influenced by the antibody's size and charge. The elimination occurs primarily through proteolytic degradation and intracellular recycling. Factors such as patient-specific variables, including immunogenicity and the presence of antibodies against the monoclonal antibody, can impact pharmacokinetics.

- anthracyclines+monoclonalantibodies: Severe (increases risk of cardiotoxicity)
- filgotinib+monoclonalantibodies: Severe (increases risk of immunosuppression)
- monoclonalantibodies+fingolimod: Severe (increases risk of generalised infection (possibly life-threatening))
- normal immunoglobulin+monoclonalantibodies: Severe (affects effects)
- monoclonalantibodies+ozanimod: Severe (increases risk of generalised infection (possibly life-threatening))
- monoclonalantibodies+siponimod: Severe (increases risk of generalised infection (possibly life-threatening))
- monoclonalantibodies+vemurafenib: Severe (increases risk of hepatotoxicity)
- monoclonalantibodies+aminophylline: Moderate (decreases exposure)

Clinical monograph: monophosphate
Monophosphate refers to a class of molecules that include nucleotides which consist of a phosphate group attached to a nucleoside. They are important in cellular energy metabolism and signaling. In biological systems, monophosphates such as AMP (adenosine monophosphate) play crucial roles in various biochemical pathways, including those involving energy transfer and signal transduction.
Indications
- Energy metabolism
- Signal transduction
- Nucleotide synthesis
- Regulation of cellular processes
Dosage
Children: Refer to specific clinical guidelines and literature for dosing in paediatric populations, as it varies based on the form and clinical application of the monophosphate.
Adults: Refer to specific clinical guidelines and literature for dosing as it varies based on the form and clinical application of the monophosphate.
Mechanism of action
Monophosphates act primarily by participating in the synthesis and breakdown of nucleic acids and nucleotides. They serve as substrates for various kinases, which catalyze the phosphorylation of molecules, thereby regulating numerous cellular processes including metabolism, cell signaling, and growth. For example, AMP is involved in the regulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which plays a critical role in cellular energy homeostasis.
Pharmacodynamics
Monophosphates influence cellular functions by acting as signaling molecules. They can activate or inhibit various enzymes and pathways, thereby modulating metabolic processes. In the case of AMP, it plays a key role in energy signaling, particularly in response to low energy states, promoting catabolic processes and inhibiting anabolic pathways to restore energy balance.
Pharmacokinetics
Monophosphates are generally water-soluble and are rapidly taken up by cells. They can be phosphorylated to form diphosphates and triphosphates, which are further utilized in various cellular processes. The metabolism of monophosphates is closely linked to cellular energy status and can be influenced by factors such as the availability of substrates and the activity of specific enzymes involved in nucleotide metabolism.
Pregnancy
Consult healthcare provider before use. The effects of monophosphate during pregnancy have not been thoroughly studied.
Breast-feeding
Consult healthcare provider before use. The safety of monophosphate during breastfeeding has not been established.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
