id="Basiliximab.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Basiliximab is a chimeric mouse-human monoclonal antibody to CD25, the alpha subunit of the IL-2 receptor, which is found on the surface of T cells. Basiliximab has potent immunosuppressive activity and is used for prevention of organ transplant rejection. Basiliximab has not been linked to serum enzyme elevations during therapy or implicated in cases of clinically apparent liver injury.</p></div><div id="Basiliximab.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Basiliximab (ba” si lix’ i mab) is a recombinant humanized monoclonal IgG1 kappa antibody to the alpha subunit of the IL2 receptor (CD25). The IL2 receptor is found on T cells and its engagement results in activation of T cells and generation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Inhibition of the receptor with antibody results in prevention of activation and proliferation of T cells and inhibition of T cell responses. Basiliximab has been shown to decrease the rate of acute cellular rejection after solid organ transplantation and to improve long term graft and patient survival. Basiliximab was approved for use in the United States in 1998 for renal transplantation and continues to be used, typically in induction regimens starting at the time of or shortly before transplantation. It is also used off-label for liver, heart and lung transplantation. Basiliximab has been under evaluation in several autoimmune diseases. Basiliximab is available in powder form in single dose vials of 10 and 20 mg under the brand name Simulect. The recommended regimen of basiliximab is two doses of 20 mg each, each dose given intravenously, the first 2 hours before and the second 4 days after transplantation. The dose in children is 10 mg in the same schedule. Basiliximab should be prescribed only by physicians with experience in immunosuppressive therapy and management of organ transplant patients. Common side effects include infusion reactions, chills, fever, skin rash, fatigue, diarrhea, nausea, headache, anorexia, leukopenia and infections. Rare, but potentially severe side effects include acute hypersensitivity reactions, anaphylaxis, capillary leak syndrome, cytokine release syndrome and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy.</p></div><div id="Basiliximab.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Because basiliximab is typically given at the time of renal or liver transplantation, its role in causing serum aminotransferase or alkaline phosphatase elevations is usually difficult to define. In general, side effects including liver test abnormalities have been no more frequent after basiliximab therapy as with placebo or comparator treatments. There have been no reports of clinically apparent liver injury attributable to basiliximab infusions. Basiliximab is a monoclonal antibody and is metabolized in the liver, but is unlikely to have intrinsic toxicity.</p><p>Basiliximab has potent immunosuppressive activity and might be expected to cause reactivation of chronic hepatitis B. Neither problem has been reported with basiliximab, possibly because patients undergoing solid organ transplantation are usually screened for hepatitis B and routinely given prophylaxis against reactivation. Similarly for chronic hepatitis C, the immunosuppression that is given to prevent transplant rejection can worsen hepatitis C, but basiliximab infusions at the time of transplant do not appear to affect the course of subsequent hepatitis C. In prospective studies, basiliximab based, corticosteroid-free immunosuppressive regimens have not had a clear advantage over standard regimens in ameliorating chronic hepatitis C.</p><p>Likelihood score: E (unlikely cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Transplant_Drugs/?report=reader">Transplant Agents</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/MonoclonalAntibodies/?report=reader">Monoclonal Antibodies</a></p><p>Other Drugs in the Subclass, Monoclonal Antibodies: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Alemtuzumab/?report=reader">Alemtuzumab</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Daclizumab/?report=reader">Daclizumab</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Muromonab-CD3/?report=reader">Muromonab</a></p></div></div><div id="Basiliximab.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Basiliximab_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><div id="Basiliximab.BPI" class="box boxed-text-box whole_rhythm hide-overflow"><p>
