The present invention relates to a method for treating gastrointestinal bleeding in a subject with severe von Willebrand Disease comprising administering to the subject at least one dose of recombinant von Willebrand Factor (rVWF) ranging from about 40 IU/kg to about 100 IU/kg, wherein the first dose further comprises recombinant Factor VIII (rFVIII).

Described herein are novel methods for fractionating and isolating platelets, platelet- and extracellular vesicle-derived growth factors, exosomes, globulins, fibrinogen and albumin, and methods of using the isolated platelets, platelet and extracellular vesicle-derived growth factors, exosomes, globulins, fibrinogen and albumin for regenerating tissue in a subject, treating fibrinogenemia or a clotting deficiency in a subject, treating ischemia and hypoxia, treating dry-eye syndrome, an orthopedic disorder, or a dental disorder in a subject. Also described herein are growth media for culturing mammalian (e g , human) cells.

The present invention relates to a method for prophylactic treatment of spontaneous bleeding in a subject with severe von Willebrand Disease comprising administering a therapeutic amount of recombinant von Willebrand Factor (rVWF) to the subject.

Products, compositions, and their uses are provided. In particular, nucleic acid products that modulate, in particular interfere with or inhibit, Factor XI (FXI) gene expression are provided. The products can be oligomeric compounds that comprise at least a first region of linked nucleosides having at least a first nucleobase sequence that is at least partially complementary to at least a portion of RNA transcribed from an FXI gene, wherein said first nucleobase sequence is selected from the following sequences, or a portion thereof: SEQ ID NOs 1 to 250.

Disclosed herein is an anti-adhesion kit comprised of: (i) a fibrinogen solution component comprising: fibrinogen at a concentration of about 5 to 25 mg/ml; and free calcium ions at a concentration ranging from 0.1 μM to 1 mM; and (ii) a thrombin component containing thrombin. Further disclosed is an anti-adhesion kit comprised of: (i) a fibrinogen solution component containing fibrinogen at a concentration of 8% to 25% of total protein by weight, and optionally free calcium ions at a concentration ranging from 0.1 μM to 1 mM; wherein a total protein concentration ranges from about 80 to 120 mg/ml; and (ii) a thrombin component containing thrombin. Methods of using the kits e.g., to provide anti-adhesion curable compositions are also disclosed.

An object of the present invention is to provide an effective and safe medicament having effects for mitigating conditions and/or suppressing onset of a peripheral neuropathy induced by administration of an anti-malignant tumor agent, oxaliplatin, in a human cancer patient receiving an anti-malignant tumor treatment with oxaliplatin. There is provided a medicament for mitigating conditions and/or suppressing onset of a peripheral neuropathy induced by oxaliplatin in an anti-malignant tumor treatment consisting of repetition of a single cycle comprising intravenous administration of oxaliplatin to a human cancer patient and following drug withdrawal, which contains thrombomodulin for intravenously administering 0.06 mg/kg of thrombomodulin once per said single cycle of the treatment on the first day of each said cycle as an active ingredient.

The present invention provides therapeutic products with decreased fibrinolytic activity of t-PA-deficient and/or plasminogen-deficient blood products, as well as compositions, kits and methods using the same in treating bleeding associated with hereditary or acquired bleeding disorders. The invention further provides extracorporeal apparatus for blood or blood products Plasmapheresis aimed to prevent or treat bleeding disorders.
