    biologic drug that targets T-cells in autoimmune conditions

    Alefacept is a biologic medication that was used to treat moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, an autoimmune skin condition. It works by targeting and reducing the activity of specific immune cells (T-cells) that are involved in the inflammatory process of psoriasis. Although it was effective for some patients, it has been discontinued in many markets due to the availability of newer treatments.
