Garadacimab is a fully human IgG4/lambda recombinant monoclonal antibody which binds to the catalytic domain of activated Factor XII (FXIIa and βFXIIa) and inhibits its catalytic activity. The inhibition of FXIIa, the first factor activated in the contact system, prevents HAE attacks by blocking the activation of prekallikrein to kallikrein and the generation of bradykinin, which is associated with inflammation and swelling in HAE attacks. |
