Vabysmo (faricimab)

Information on this site is not intended as medical advice and should not be used as a substitute for consulting with a qualified doctor.

Vabysmo (faricimab) is the first bispecific antibody designed for the eye. It targets and inhibits two signalling pathways linked to a number of vision-threatening retinal conditions by neutralising angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A). Ang-2 and VEGF-A contribute to vision loss by destabilising blood vessels, causing new leaky blood vessels to form and increasing inflammation. By blocking both pathways involving Ang-2 and VEGF-A, Vabysmo is designed to stabilise blood vessels.1

In Bangladesh Vabysmo is approved for the following indications.2
