Elsilimomab (also known as B-E8) is a mouse monoclonal antibody.[1] B-E8 was developed by Diaclone,[2] a French company which produces many mouse monoclonal antibodies.

It (OPR-003) targets (and blocks) Interleukin-6.[3]

It has undergone a number of early stage clinical trials, e.g. for lymphoma and myeloma.[4]

It was used as a template to develop a high-affinity, antagonist, fully human anti-IL-6 mAb 1339.[4]
