Faricimab is a 150kDa-sized bispecific antibody whose molecular structure allows a high affinity bond to both vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) and Angiopoietin (Ang-2). [9] By blocking the action of these two growth factors, faricimab decreases migration and replication of endothelial cells allowing for stabilization of vascular ...
Additional bispecific antibody drugs have since been approved by the US FDA: emicizumab, amivantamab, tebentafusp, faricimab, teclistamab, mosunetuzumab, epcoritamab, glofitamab. [31] Among the bsAb programs currently under development, the combination of CD3 and tumor surface targets are the most popular targets pairs.
Brolucizumab is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in ophthalmology. [7] [8]Brolucizumab successfully completed phase III development in wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) meeting the primary efficacy endpoint of non-inferiority to aflibercept in mean change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from baseline to week 48.
Anti–vascular endothelial growth factor therapy, also known as anti-VEGF (/ v ɛ dʒ ˈ ɛ f /) therapy or medication, is the use of medications that block vascular endothelial growth factor.

Solanezumab binds the amyloid-β peptides that aggregate and form plaques in the brain that are an early pathological feature of Alzheimer's disease. [11] Solanezumab binds the central epitope of monomeric amyloid-β, KLVFFAED, (PDB ID 4XXD [12]) with picomolar affinity. [13]
Vanucizumab (INN; development code RG7221) is an experimental humanized monoclonal antibody designed for the treatment of cancer. [1] [2]Vanucizumab is a bi-specific monoclonal antibody composed of two different heavy chains and two different light chains.
Emicizumab, sold under the brand name Hemlibra, is a humanized bispecific monoclonal antibody for the treatment of haemophilia A, developed by Genentech and Chugai (both organizations are subsidiaries of Hoffmann-La Roche). [4]
