Description
Fremanezumab (TEV-48125) is a humanized lgG2 monoclonal antibody that selectively and potently binds to calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRp) (IC50 values = 7.943 nM). Fremanezumab binds to mouse CGRP with an IC50 value of 19.6 nM. Fremanezumab counteracts anti-inflammatory effects of CGRP in vitro, including CGRP-mediated inhibition of LPS (HY-D1056)-induced microglial activation. Fremanezumab selectively inhibits the activation of Aδ meningeal nociceptors by cortical spreading depression (CSD) in rats. Fremanezumab can be used for the study of inflammation and chronic migraine
