The present invention relates unit dose formulations of antidotes to anticoagulants targeting factor Xa. Disclosed herein are methods of stopping or preventing bleeding in a patient that is currently undergoing anticoagulant therapy with a factor Xa inhibitor.

The present disclosure relates to solutions and methods of preparing lyophilized formulations of factor Xa (fXa) antidotes. A suitable aqueous formulation suitable for lyophilization can include a fXa antidote, a solubilizing agent, and a stabilizer, wherein the formulation does not collapse during lyophilization.

The present invention relates to mutated factor (FX) polypeptides and uses thereof for the treatment of haemophilia. In particular, the present invention relates to a mutated factor X (FX) polypeptide wherein the heavy chain comprises at least one mutation selected from the group consisting of: —the mutation which consists of the substitution of the glutamic acid residue (E) at position 255 of Seq. ID No. 1 by a glutamine residue (Q), an asparagine residue (N), a serine residue (S), an alanine residue (A), or a tyrosine residue (Y); —the mutation which consists of the substitution of the glutamic acid residue (E) at position 256 of Seq. ID No. 1 by a glutamine residue (Q); and —the mutation which consists of the substitution of the glutamic acid residue (E) at position 258 of Seq. ID No. 1 by a glutamine residue (Q);

The invention relates to a method for purifying biologically active GLA-domain coagulation proteins, comprising the following steps: a) bringing a sample that contains one or more GLA-domain coagulation proteins and may contain biologically inactive molecules of GLA-domain protein(s), into contact with an affinity support on which nucleic aptamers that bind specifically to at least one biologically active GLA-domain coagulation protein are immobilized, in order to form complexes between (i) said nucleic aptamers and (ii) said GLA-domain coagulation protein(s), b) releasing the GLA-domain coagulation protein(s) from the complexes formed in step a), and c) recovering said biologically active GLA-domain coagulation protein(s) in a purified form.

The present invention relates to improved clotting compositions for producing high quality blood serum samples for analyte testing, such as for pathology testing and other biological assays. In particular, the present invention relates to the use of prothrombin activators in combination with stabilizing agents such as colloids for producing high quality blood serum samples. The present invention also relates to associated methods for preparing clotting compositions, tubes, kits and methods of diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring for responsiveness to therapy.

Provided herein is a single component sealant formulation (e.g. in a liquid form), methods for its preparation, and use. The formulation includes fibrinogen; vitamin K-dependent clotting zymogens comprising at least Factor II (FII) and Factor X (FX).

In the invention, the minimum inhibitory concentrations of human coagulation factor light-chain proteins against different Gram-negative bacteria are detected with the in vitro antibacterial activity and the inhibiting effect of the human coagulation factor light-chain proteins against different Gram-negative bacteria is detected with the in vivo antibacterial activity. It has been shown that human coagulation factor light-chain proteins have an obvious inhibitory effect on the Gram-negative bacteria, so as to develop a novel class of medicaments for treating Gram-negative bacteria infection. It has been demonstrated by mass spectrometry and silver staining that human coagulation factor light-chain proteins have the effect on hydrolyzing and eliminating the endotoxin, which facilitates the development of a novel class of medicaments for treating endotoxemia. The human coagulation factor light-chain proteins are light chain proteins of human coagulation factors VII, IX, and X, as well as a protein having homology of more than 50% thereof.

Factor X/Xa variants and methods of use thereof are disclosed.

Disclosed are methods and isolated cells useful for the improved production of function fXa derivative protein that acts as a fXa inhibitor antidote. One aspect relates to an isolated cell comprising the r-Antidote polynucleotide and Furin polynucleotide. Another aspect relates to a method for preparing the cleaved two-chain r-Antidote by expressing, in a cell, the pre-processed r-Antidote polypeptide and a Furin polypeptide.

The present subject matter is directed to a method of manufacturing and purifying an intravenous injection of prothrombin complex concentration (PCC) from plasma Fraction III and a method of manufacturing and purifying an intravenous injection of non-PCC from plasma Fraction IV. The intravenous injection of PCC and non-PCC obtained from the method can be administered to a patient in need thereof for stopping replication, killing and preventing HIV-1 and HIV-2 in a patient.
