Omalizumab (trade name Xolair, Genentech / Novartis) is a humanized antibody approved for patients 12 years or older with moderate to severe allergic asthma in the U.S.A. and with severe, persistent allergic asthma in many other countries. It has also been approved for pediatric patients 6 to 11 years old with severe, persistent allergic asthma in the European Union. Omalizumab's cost is high, ranging from $6000-$24000 a year and hence omalizumab is mainly prescribed for patients with severe, persistent asthma, which cannot be controlled even with high doses of corticosteroids. Like other protein and antibody drugs, omalizumab causes anaphylaxis (a life-threatening systemic allergic reaction) in 1 to 2 patients per 1,000. Omalizumab is a recombinant DNA-derived humanized IgG1k monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to free human immunoglobulin E (IgE)in the blood and interstitial fluid and to membrane-bound form of IgE (mIgE) on the surface of mIgE-expressing B lymphocytes. Omalizumab does not bind to IgE that is already bound by the high-affinity IgE receptors on the surface of mast cells, basophils, and antigen-presenting dendritic cells. IgE is commonly involved in type-I hypersensitivity reactions, which manifests the most common type of allergies. It has been estimated that as high as 20 to 40% of the populations who live a western lifestyle in economically advanced countries are affected by allergy and seek medical help. While allergy occurs more frequently in individuals with higher serum IgE levels, such a correlation is only statistical and not absolute. Some allergic individuals have very low serum IgE, and some people with very high IgE have no allergic problems.
