Preferred Label : Hyper-Sialylated IgG M254;
NCIt synonyms : Hyper-Sialylated Immunoglobulin G M254; hsIgG M254;
NCIt definition : A preparation of hyper-sialylated immunoglobulin G (hsIgG) of which IgG is derived
from commercially available intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg), a therapeutic blood
product prepared from pooled plasma of healthy donors, with anti-inflammatory and
immunomodulating activities that can potentially be used for immune thrombocytopenic
purpura (ITP) and other autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Upon intravenous administration,
hsIgG M254 enhances the function of IgG and may, compared to conventional IVIg, have
increased anti-inflammatory and immunomodulating activities.;
