Short description
Pharmacodynamic properties
(Mechanism of action; Source EMA document)
Vedolizumab is a gut-selective immunosuppressive biologic. It is a humanised monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to the α4β7 integrin, which is preferentially expressed on gut homing T helper lymphocytes. By binding to α4β7 on certain lymphocytes, vedolizumab inhibits adhesion of these cells to mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1), but not to vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). MAdCAM-1 is mainly expressed on gut endothelial cells and plays a critical role in the homing of T lymphocytes to tissues within the gastrointestinal tract. Vedolizumab does not bind to, nor inhibit function of, the α4β1 and αEβ7 integrins.
Pharmacodynamic properties (Pharmacodynamic effects; Source EMA document)The single and multiple dose pharmacokinetics of vedolizumab have been studied in healthy subjects
and in patients with moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease
