Garadacimab, sold under the brand name Andembry, is a human monoclonal antibody used for the treatment of hereditary angioedema.[6][7] Garadacimab is a monoclonal antibody against the activated coagulation factor XIIa (FXIIa), with potential anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant activities.[9][10]
Garadacimab is a fully human, recombinant, IgG4 lambda monoclonal antibody that binds to the catalytic domain of activated factor XII (FXIIa).[7] FXIIa is the first factor activated in the contact system, which leads to the production of bradykinin.[7] The inhibition of FXIIa therefore prevents the activation of prekallikrein into kallikrein and the generation of bradykinin, which is associated with inflammation and swelling in attacks of hereditary angioedema.[7]
Garadacimab was authorized for medical use in the European Union in February 2025,[7][8] and approved in the United States in June 2025.[11][12]
Medical uses
[edit]Garadacimab is indicated for routine prevention of recurrent attacks of hereditary angioedema in people aged twelve years of age and older.[7][8]
