DRUG
bimekizumab
Plaque psoriasis (FDA 2023)
26 hypotheses across 6 therapeutic domains
CROSS-DOMAIN PATTERN
Same drug, multiple disease domains
bimekizumab appears in hypotheses across 6 disease domains: ALS, Depression, Epilepsy, Inflammatory bowel disease, Multiple sclerosis, Pancreatic cancer. Shared mediators that recur across at least two of those domains: IL-17A, IL-17F.
Aggregated from the catalog. Biological interpretation of any multi-indication mechanism would require independent validation — this is a structural observation only.
