The Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor Antibody, PF-06741086, Increases Thrombin Generation in Rare Bleeding Disorder and Von Willebrand Factor Deficient Plasmas

In this study, the potential of PF-06741086 to restore thrombin generation in rare disease plasma was explored.Thrombin generation was measured in citrated platelet poor Factor XI (FXI), Factor V (FV), FVII, von Willebrand Factor (vWF) deficient (Type 1, 2A, 2B and 3) congenital donor plasma following the in vitro addition of PF-06741086 (0, 1, 10 or 100 nM) or a human IgG1 antibody; initiated with 1 pM TF and 4 µM phospholipid. FXI, FV, and FVII donors had less than 1% coagulation factor activity. Non-hemophilic plasma from healthy donors alone was also included in the analysis. In FXI deficient plasmas, a concentration-dependent increase in peak thrombin and a shortening of the lag time was observed with the addition of PF-06741086 normalizing and restoring levels to those observed in the non-hemophilic plasma. A similar response was also observed in all of the vWF deficient plasmas. In one FVII deficient plasma, an increase in peak thrombin was observed at dose of 100 nM PF-06741086, however, the lag time (20 minutes) was significantly extended, relative to healthy volunteer non-hemophilic plasma. As expected, the addition of PF-06741086 to FV deficient plasma did not increase thrombin generation at any concentration.The in vitro addition of the TFPI antibody, PF-06741086, improved thrombin generation in selected coagulation factor deficient plasmas, including vWF deficiency, to the levels observed in normal plasma. This data suggestion that the inhibition of TFPI ma...
