Product overview
anti-Etanercept ELISA Kit (Enbrel®) (ab237661) is a highly specific and sensitive kit designed for the in vitro determination of the antibody against Etanercept in biological matrices such as human serum and plasma.
Etanercept (Enbrel®) is a therapeutic fusion protein specific for Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha (TNF-α) and is used to treat rheumatic arthritis, intestinal disorders, dermatological diseases and cancer. Etanercept specifically binds to TNF alpha and blocks its interaction with cell surface TNF receptors and reduces the inflammation and subsequently improves the patient’s health. However, some patients develop unwanted immunogenicity, which leads to production of anti-drug-antibodies (ADAs) inactivating the therapeutic effects of the treatment and, in rare cases, inducing adverse effects.

Etanercept (Enbrel®) is a therapeutic fusion protein specific for Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha (TNF-a) and is used to treat rheumatic arthritis, intestinal disorders, dermatological diseases and cancer. Etanercept specifically binds to TNF alpha and blocks its interaction with cell surface TNF receptors and reduces the inflammation and subsequently improves the patient’s health. Drug level quantification can be important to adapt patient prescription or to switch to an alternative TNF inhibitor drug.
