Pegsunercept is a drug for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. As of January 2010[update], Phase II clinical trials have been completed.[1][2][3] It is being developed by Amgen.

Similarly to etanercept, pegsunercept is a soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor. Pegsunercept is a PEGylated protein.[3]
