Overview

Tividenofusp alfa-eknm is a hydrolytic lysosomal glycosaminoglycan (GAG)-specific enzyme.

USES: Tividenofusp alfa is used to treat a rare inherited condition called mucopolysaccharidosis type II (Hunter syndrome), which causes certain complex sugars (glycosaminoglycans-GAGs) to build up in the body and brain. Tividenofusp alfa is a human-made version of a natural enzyme your body needs to break down these sugars. This may help improve or slow worsening of some problems caused by Hunter syndrome, such as problems with learning, behavior, and everyday skills.
