Golimumab (CNTO 148)[2] is a human monoclonal antibody which is used as an immunosuppressive drug and marketed under the brand name Simponi. Golimumab targets tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), a pro-inflammatory molecule[3] and hence is a TNF inhibitor.

Golimumab was developed by Centocor and is approved in Canada[4] and the United States[5] as a once monthly subcutaneous treatment for adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis.[6] Golimumab has been approved in 2013 for use in adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease or Ulcerative Colitis.

In the same year, Johnson & Johnson, the parent company of Centocor, also received an approval from European Medicines Agency (EMEA) for the use of golimumab as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.[7] Golimumab is marketed by Merck & Co, Inc. in Europe, pending final arbitration between J&J and Merck.[8][9] [10]

Efficacy

Large, randomized, double-blind trials in patients with rheumatoid arthritis have shown that golimumab in combination with methotrexate was more effective than methotrexate alone.[11]
