Bentracimab is a monoclonal antibody medication which has been shown in phase one and two clinical trials to function as a reversal agent for the anti–blood clotting drug ticagrelor (which acts as a P2Y12 inhibitor and is sold under the brand name Brilinta among others).[2] It is under investigation for use in major, life-threatening bleeding in patients being treated with ticagrelor.[3][4] It is not commercially available.
