Compound class: Antibody
Comment: Abelacimab (MAA868) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to the catalytic domain of both coagulation factor XI (FXI, F11) and activated FXI (FXIa) [3], and which was designed for antithrombotic potential. It locks FXIa into a conformation that cannot be activated by FXIIa or thrombin [1-2]. Inhbiting FXI/FXIa produces anticoagulant effects without adversly affecting normal hemostasis. Anti-FXI mAbs offer an alternative FXI-targeting strategy to investigational small molecule FXI inhibitors like asundexian and milvexian. Osocimab is another clinical stage anti-FXI mAb.
