Emicizumab (also known as ACE910, trade name Hemlibra) is a bispecific humanized monoclonal antibody that restores the function of missing activated clotting factor VIII (FVIII) by bridging activated FIX and FX to facilitate effective hemostasis in patients with hemophilia A (HEMA) (Sampei Z et al. 2013; Kitazawa T et al. 2017, 2020). Emicizumab recognizes the epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domain 1 of FIX/FIXa with one arm and the EGF-like domain 2 of FX/FXa with the other arm (Kitazawa T et al. 2017). The FVIIIa-cofactor activity of emicizumab is thought to depend on phosphatidylserine-exposed phospholipid membrane (Kitazawa T et al. 2017).
