The factor XI/XIa antibody abelacimab combined with enoxaparin inhibits filter clotting in hemodialysis circuits ex vivo.

Drugs targeting factor XI may offer an alternative to heparin for preventing blood clotting in extracorporeal circulation. We investigated the effects of abelacimab, a novel monoclonal antibody targeting factor XI. We collected whole blood samples into two bags (each 240 ml, control group: enoxaparin 1.

Prospective Trial on the Pharmacokinetics of Clopidogrel in Hemodialysis Patients.

Introduction: Hemodialysis patients (HDPs) exhibit extensive cardiovascular risk. The widely prescribed anti-platelet agent clopidogrel is metabolically activated by cytochrome enzymes, which may be impaired by uremia and chronic low-grade inflammation, typically present in HDPs. We conducted a prospective multicenter study to investigate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of clopidogrel in HDPs and healthy volunteers (HVs).

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of low doses of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator to establish a model for biosimilarity comparisons.

Background: Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is a thrombolytic agent and essential in emergency medical care. Given recent supply shortages, the availability of biosimilar products is an urgent medical need. However, biosimilarity trials are difficult to perform in critically ill patients.
