NCIt definition : A human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody against the pro-inflammatory
cytokine interleukin-18 (IL-18), with potential anti-inflammatory and antineoplastic
activities. Upon administration, camoteskimab selectively targets and binds to IL-18,
thereby inhibiting IL-18-mediated signaling and inflammation mediated by this pathway.
In addition, this may inhibit IL-18-mediated immunosuppression in the multiple myeloma
microenvironment. IL-18 is a member of the interleukin-1 (IL-1) cytokine superfamily.
Elevated IL-18 level is associated with disease progression and poor prognosis in
multiple myeloma.;
