What is Takhzyro?

Takhzyro is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Shire Pharmaceuticals Ireland Limited.

Takhzyro is a plasma kallikrein inhibitor (monoclonal antibody) used for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in patients 12 years of age. HAE is a rare genetic disorder estimated to affect about 1 in 50,000 people worldwide.

What doses of Takhzyro are available?

Takhzyro is available as an injection, in the following doses: 300 mg/2 mL (150 mg/mL) solution in a single-dose vial.

Takhzyro is for subcutaneous injection use only, given in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. The recommended starting dose is Takhzyro 300 mg every 2 weeks. A 4-week dosing interval may be considered if the patient is attack-free for more than 6 months. A healthcare professional may teach you how to use the medication yourself.

Prepare your injection only when you are ready to use it within the next 2 hours. Store in the refrigerator. Take the medicine out of the refrigerator and allow it to reach room temperature for 15 minutes before injecting your dose.

Use Takhzyro treatment exactly as it was prescribed for you. Read and carefully follow any prescribing information and instructions for use provided with your medicine. Do not use Takhzyro if you do not understand all the instructions for proper use. Always speak with your caregiver about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

Takhzyro active ingredients

Takhzyro contains the active ingredient lanadelumab-flyo, a fully human monoclonal antibody (IgG1/κ-light chain) that binds plasma kallikrein and inhibits its proteolytic activity.

Plasma kallikrein is a protease that cuts high-molecular-weight-kininogen to form cleaved HMWK and bradykinin, a potent vasodilator that increases vascular permeability resulting in swelling and pain associated with HAE attacks. In patients with HAE due to a lack of C1-inhibitor or dysfunction, normal control of plasma kallikrein activity is not present. This leads to uncontrolled increases in plasma kallikrein activity and causes angioedema attacks. Lanadelumab-flyo decreases plasma kallikrein activity to control excess bradykinin production and reduce the number of HAE attacks.
