Definitions
- compositions and methods for improving hemostasis in the treatment of bleeding disorders and reversal of anticoagulant activity Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for improving hemostasis in the treatment of bleeding disorders and reversal of anticoagulant activity.
- the coagulation cascade by which the human body produces blood clots is the body's primary mechanism to stop bleeding. Blood clots are produced by platelets sticking together in a fibrin matrix to form a plug at an injured blood vessel site. The body's inability to form blood clots can lead to excessive bleeding which can be very dangerous. Blood which cannot clot properly in an individual is often the sign of a bleeding disorder.
- hemophilia A the most common type of hemophilia, is a largely inherited bleeding disorder in which there is a Factor VIII (FVIII) deficiency.
- FVIII Factor VIII
- the development of antibodies, also called inhibitors, against FVIII in response to FVIII replacement therapy is an additional challenge for treatment of hemophilia A.
- hemophilia B A less common type of hemophilia, hemophilia B, is also a largely inherited bleeding disorder that results in a Factor IX (FIX) deficiency and is also known as “Christmas disease.”
- FIX Factor IX
- Christmas disease The development of antibodies, also called inhibitors, against FIX in response to FIX replacement therapy is an additional challenge for treatment of hemophilia B.
- vWF von Willebrand factor
- Blood clotting factor which is either lacking or deficient.
- the factors can either be purified from donated human plasma (plasma-derived factors), or made recombinantly (recombinant factors).
- Antibodies also called inhibitors
- the immune system makes antibodies, also called inhibitors, which attack FVIII. This can be very dangerous as the inhibitors can prevent or inhibit FVIII from controlling bleeding. Therefore, in the case of development of inhibitors against the administered clotting factor, bypass therapies have to be applied.
- Treatment of hemophilia A is complicated by development of FVIII neutralizing antibodies, occurring in about 30% of patients with severe hemophilia A. Similar inhibitory or neutralizing antibody formation can occur in patients treated with FIX or vWF replacement therapy.

- compositions for treating a bleeding disorder comprising FII and FXa wherein the molar ratio of FXa to FII is less than 1:20,000.
- FII and FXa can either be plasma derived or recombinant.
- EP 1460131 describes a process for producing recombinant human blood clotting factors in human cell lines.
- WO 2005/038019 describes producing high yields of coagulation factors recombinantly.

- FEIBA® is a plasma-derived activated prothrombin complex concentrate used to treat bleeding episodes in hemophilic patients with inhibitors.
- FII and FXa have been identified as the most critical components that mediate the hemostatic effect of FEIBA®.
- the molar ratio of FXa and FII in FEIBA® ranges from 1:20,000-40,000, i.e. 1 U/mL of FEIBA® results in plasma concentrations of 0.035-0.07 nM FXa and 1400 nM FII.
- the molar ratio ranges of FXa to FII in FEIBA® results in a high prothrombin requirement which is challenging to produce recombinantly.
- FII and FX are complex proteins with multiple structural domains and post-translational modifications. Both can be produced recombinantly in mammalian cell lines, e.g. CHO. Factor X needs to be further activated to FXa for co-formulation with FII in the compositions of the present embodiments.
- Hemophiliac patients “with inhibitors” can mean hemophiliac patients with antibodies, with neutralizing antibodies, with inhibitory antibodies or the like. The inhibitors can develop when an individual with a bleeding disorder is treated with a replacement therapy and the body recognizes the therapy as a threat instead of treatment.

- Anticoagulants are used to treat and prevent blood clots. Individuals who are at risk at developing a blood clot, or to prevent an existing blood clot from growing, are given an anticoagulant. Those at risk for developing a blood clot include those with atrial fibrillation, a mechanical heart valve, endocarditis, mitral stenosis, certain blood disorders, and those who have had hip replacement surgery or knee replacement surgery. Sometimes reversal of anticoagulants is necessary for example, in situations where there is a high risk of bleeding.

- a composition for treating bleeding disorders comprises about 0.2 mg/kg to about 1 mg/kg of FII and about 560 ng/kg to about 1100 ng/kg of FXa. In other embodiments, a composition for treating bleeding disorders comprises about 1.2 mg/kg to about 5 mg/kg of FII and about 200 ng/kg to about 540 ng/kg of FXa.
- FII and FXa a combination of two coagulation factors was generated: human FII and FXa.
- a human plasma-based calibrated automated thrombography (CAT) assay was applied to identify FII/FXa combinations at specific ratios that had a similar in vitro procoagulant effect in FVIII-inhibited plasma as FEIBA®.
- Three FII/FXa ratios were selected, translated into preclinical doses and efficacy assessed in a rabbit bleeding model. Three compositions, the first with 100% FII and FXa (same as in FEIBA®), the second with 10% prothrombin and 300% FXa, and FEIBA® showed statistically significant efficacy.
- the latter dose contains ⁇ 20-fold less FII and 4-fold more FXa compared to previous studies.
- the dose with 25% FII and 200% FXa was not effective.
- the observed hemostatic effect appears to be mediated by neither FII nor FXa alone.
- the ratio of FII and FXa was adjusted so that activity and in vivo efficacy were unaltered and recombinant protein production for a recombinant version of FII/FXa remained feasible.
- the calibrated automated thrombography (CAT) assay has been used to monitor the pro- and anticoagulant effects of substances in human plasma.
- the thrombogram describes the concentration of thrombin in clotting plasma and the CAT is therefore a general physiologic function test of the hemostatic system.
- the assay is based on the measurement of fluorescence that is generated by the cleavage of the fluorogenic substrate Z-G-G-R-AMC by thrombin over time upon initiation of coagulation by Tissue Factor (TF).
- the assay is performed on a ThrombographTM, a 96-well plate fluorometer available from Thermo Scientific, and uses a thrombin calibrator that is needed to correct for inner filter effect, donor-to-donor variability in color of plasma, substrate depletion and instrumental differences.
- the procoagulant activity of various combinations of plasma-derived FII (140-1400 nM) and FXa (0.035-0.21 nM) was assessed by CAT in FVIII-inhibited plasma.
- a normal human plasma pool (George King Biomedical) was treated with 50 Bethesda units (BU)/mL goat anti-FVIII plasma (Baxter).
- Corn trypsin inhibitor (CTI, 40 ⁇ g/mL, Haematologic Technologies) was added to inhibit pre-activation by factor XIIa. Clotting was triggered with 1 pM TF+4 ⁇ M phospholipids (PL) (PPP LOW reagent, Thrombinoscope BV). Thrombin generation was monitored at 37° C. for 90 min in a Fluoroskan Ascent reader (Thermo Scientific; wavelength 390/460 nm) after recalcification. Duplicate measurements were performed for each sample.
- a CAT protocol optimized for rabbit plasma (40 ⁇ L/mL CTI, final plasma dilution of 1:3, 0.6 pM TF and 4 ⁇ M PL) was used to confirm in spike-in studies that human FII and FXa are also active in rabbit plasma.
- the same CAT protocol was used for the analysis of ex vivo rabbit plasma samples in the context of the nail clip bleeding study.
- FII 105 nM to 1400 nM
- FXa 0.035 to 0.21 nM
- a target range for the desired procoagulant activity of FII/FXa was established by testing the effect of 20 different FEIBA® lots at 1 U/mL.
- the ETP was used as comparative CAT parameter as it showed the most significant change in response to FII/FXa.
- FII/FXa combinations were identified to lie within the range of FEIBA® activity in correcting thrombin generation in FVIII-inhibited plasma, resulting in 100% to 7.5% prothrombin and 100 to 300% FXa as in FEIBA® (Table 1). A slight decrease in thrombin generation upon FII reduction can be compensated by a moderate increase in FXa. Three combinations were selected to be tested in an in vivo efficacy model in hemophilia A-induced rabbits.
- FII FXa (% of amount (% of amount FII (nM) FXa (nM) in FEIBA) in FEIBA) Ratio 1400* 0.07* 100 100 20,000* 700 0.07 50 100 10,000 350 0.07 50 100 5000 350 0.14 25 200 2500 140 0.14 10 200 1000 140 0.21 10 300 670 105 0.21 7.5 300 500 (*indicates the ratio as it is found in FEIBA ®. Combinations marked grey were selected for in vivo study.
- the aim of this proof-of-concept study was to assess the efficacy of three FII/FXa doses administered together or alone in a nail-clip bleeding model in FVIII-inhibited rabbits ( FIG. 3A ).
- the dose with highest FII amount was 4.4 mg/kg FII+275 ng/kg FXa and is defined as “FEIBA® ratio” and 100% for both FII and FXa.
- the second dose 1.1 mg/kg FII+551 ng/kg FXa had FII reduced to 25% and FXa increased to 200%.
- the third dose 0.44 mg/kg FII+826 ng/kg FXa had FII reduced to 10% and FXa increased to 300%.
- Efficacy was determined for each treatment in terms of reduced blood loss after treatment in comparison to a buffer-only control group.
- FEIBA® 75 U/kg served as a positive control.
- Conscious New Zealand white (NZW) rabbits were intravenously administered with 2 mL/kg FVIII inhibitor (17,000 BU/kg) to deplete endogenous FVIII. After approximately 20 mins, the animals were anesthetized by subcutaneous injection with 5 mg/kg xylazine and 75 mg/kg ketamine. Rabbits were laid on a heating pad to prevent hypothermia, and the hair on digit II of the right hind limb shaved. The nail was cut 3 mm from the distal edge of the blood supply matrix 45 min after application of inhibitor plasma. Blood was then collected for 30 min in a tube with saline (room temperature) by immersing the bleeding nail.
- saline room temperature
- the saline tubes were exchanged to prevent drying of the inflicted wound.
- Six male NZW rabbits were used per group. The animals received intravenous treatment with test or control item. Ten min after application of test or control item, the bleeding nail was inserted in a third tube with saline, and blood collected again for 30 min. For each tube, the amount of blood was measured gravimetrically. The experimental procedure is depicted in FIG. 3A . The rabbits were killed at the end of the second observation period by injecting an overdose of pentobarbital.
- Blood loss within 30 min before and after application of treatment was summarized by treatment group using medians, inter-quartile ranges (IQRs), ranges (minimum to maximum), arithmetic means and coefficients of variation as depicted in FIG. 3B .
- the efficacious dose of about 826 ng/kg of FXa and about 0.44 mg/kg of FII has a 90% reduced FII amount compared to the FEIBA® ratio.
- the results demonstrate that lowering the FII amount and slightly increasing FXa is sufficient to correct bleeding in a hemophilia animal model.
- test and control item were assessed using a nail-clip bleeding model; thrombelastography and CAT assay were performed to gain additional information (see Example 3).
- Blood samples of FVIII-inhibited rabbits after administration of FEIBA®, FII or FXa alone or in combination, or buffer were analyzed ex vivo by thromboelastography (TEG). Measurements were performed using a TEG hemostasis analyzer 5000 (Haemonetics Corp, USA) at 37° C. Blood was sampled before and 45 min after administration of FVIII-inhibitor plasma, immediately after administration of test or control item, and at the end of the second bleeding observation period (approximately 40 min after test item administration).
- the TEG run was either stopped after all relevant measurements were obtained or cancelled after 2 h if no clot formed.
- the TEG parameters of clotting time (R-time), speed of clot formation (K-time) rapidity of clot strengthening (angle) and maximum clot firmness (MA) were recorded.
- FIG. 5 shows representative thrombin generation profiles for one animal of each dosing group at all four timepoints.
- the group dosed with FII alone is not represented, but had no effect on thrombin generation.
- Administration of the positive control 75 U/mL FEIBA®
- FEIBA® the positive control
- Combined treatment of FVIII-inhibited rabbits with plasma-derived human FII and FXa showed a beneficial effect on thrombin generation in rabbit plasma and reached ETP values that were closer to the normal baseline than the FEIBA® control.
- a moderate increase in thrombin generation is preferable over massive thrombin generation as this may be an indicator for thrombogenic activity.
