Active Ingredient | Description | |
---|---|---|
Crovalimab |
Crovalimab is a recombinant humanised immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1)-based monoclonal antibody that specifically binds with high affinity to component 5 (C5) of the complement system, inhibiting its cleavage into C5a and C5b and thus preventing the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC). Crovalimab causes terminal complement activity inhibition. In patients with PNH, crovalimab inhibits terminal complement-mediated intravascular haemolysis. |
