Tocilizumab antibody | AbD21338_hIgG1
A microtiter plate was coated over night with various antigens at a concentration of 5 μg/ml. After washing and blocking with PBST+5% BSA, detection was performed using HRP-conjugated Human anti tocilizumab (clone AbD21338_hIgG1) at a concentration of 2 μg/ml in HISPEC diluent (BUF049A) and QuantaBlu™ fluorogenic peroxidase substrate
A microtiter plate was coated over night with human IgG1/kappa, human IgG1/lambda or tocilizumab at a concentration of 5 μg/ml. After washing and blocking with PBST+5% BSA, detection was performed using HRP-conjugated Human anti tocilizumab (clone AbD21338_hIgG1) titrated to the given concentrations in PBST, followed by QuantaBlu™ fluorogenic peroxidase substrate. Data presented is the mean of three measurements
A microtiter plate was coated over night with Human anti tocilizumab (clone AbD21362, HCA252) at a concentration of 1 μg/ml. After washing and blocking with PBST+5% BSA, 10% human serum was added spiked with increasing concentrations of tocilizumab. Detection was performed using HRP-conjugated Human anti tocilizumab (clone AbD21338_hIgG1) at a concentration of 2 μg/ml in HISPEC assay diluent (BUF049A) and QuantaBlu™ fluorogenic peroxidase substrate. Data presented is the mean of three measurements
A microtitre plate was coated over night with tocilizumab at a concentration of 1 μg/ml. After washing and blocking with PBST+5% BSA, 10% human serum was added spiked with increasing concentrations of different Human anti tocilizumab clones, AbD21338_hIgG1 (HCA253), AbD21364_hIgG1 (HCA254), AbD21346_hIgG1 (HCA255) and AbD21345_hIgG1 (HCA256). Detection was performed using HRP-conjugated tocilizumab. Data presented is the mean of two measurements. HRP-conjugation of tocilizumab used in this assay was performed using a LYNX Rapid HRP Antibody Conjugation Kit®
A microtiter plate was coated over night with human interleukin 6 receptor at a concentration of 1 μg/ml. After washing and blocking with PBST+5% BSA, a pre-incubated mixture of tocilizumab (0.3 μg/ml) plus increasing concentrations of the monovalent Fab fragment of the inhibitory Human anti tocilizumab clone AbD21338_hIgG (HCA253) or the non-inhibitory clone AbD22155_hIgG1 (HCA257) was added. Free tocilizumab, still capable of binding to the human interleukin 6 receptor-coated plate, was detected using Mouse anti Human IgG (Fc) CH2 Domain:HRP (MCA647P) and QuantaBlu™ fluorogenic peroxidase substrate. Data is presented as the mean of three measurements
Human anti Tocilizumab:HRP
Anti-tocilizumab antibody is a recombinant, neutralizing anti-idiotypic antibody in fully human IgG1 format, suitable for bioanalytical assays for tocilizumab and biosimilars. It is recommended as detection antibody in a PK bridging ELISA and as a reference standard in an ADA bridging ELISA.

Human anti tocilizumab, clone AbD21338_hIgG1 is a paratope specific, anti-idiotypic antibody that binds to free tocilizumab but not to human Interleukin-6 Receptor (IL-6R) or the drug/IL-6R complex. The antibody can be used to measure the levels of tocilizumab and biosimilar products in bioanalytical assays.
Clone AbD21338_hIgG1 can be used to develop a pharmacokinetic (PK) bridging assay to measure free drug. This antibody, HRP conjugated and in full immunoglobulin (Ig) format, is recommended as the detection antibody, paired with capture antibody clone AbD21362 (HCA252) in monovalent Fab format. The antibody in Ig format can also be used to develop and calibrate immune response assays to measure the anti-drug antibody (ADA) response in patient sera.
Tocilizumab, marketed under the brand name RoActemra® in Europe and Actemra® in North America, is a humanized IgG1/kappa monoclonal antibody approved for the treatment of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis and for the treatment of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. The therapeutic antibody is directed against IL-6R and acts by blocking the binding of IL-6R (both the soluble form, sIL-6R, and the membrane bound form, mIL-6R) to IL-6, thus impeding the pro-inflammatory properties of this cytokine.
