DrugBank MoA: TB-402 is a human antibody binding to Factor VIII, which plays a crucial role in the coagulation of the blood. The antibody has shown a beneficial partial inhibition of Factor VIII, even when applied in excess dosage. Extensive testing in several animal models has shown that TB-402 strongly reduces the risk of thrombosis without increasing the risk of bleeding.
Targets: Coagulation factor VIII
Inclusion Criteria: Indication associated
