Recombinant Factor VIIa-Mediated Activation of Prothrombin Complex Concentrates.

Recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) is used in the management of bleeding in patients with hemophilia. A generic biosimilar version of NovoSeven is also developed (AryoSeven). To compare the activation profile of NovoSeven and AryoSeven, 2 commercially available protein complex concentrates (PCCs) were used.

Comparative Biochemical and Functional Studies on a Branded Human Recombinant Factor VIIa and a Biosimilar Equivalent Product.

Recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa; NovoSeven, Novo Nordisk, Copenhagen, Denmark) is used to control bleeding in patients with hemophilia. A generic version of FVIIa was developed by AryoGen (Tehran, Iran). This study compared the composition and functional activities of AryoSeven and NovoSeven.

Tissue factor-mediated activation of the prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) is differently inhibited by dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and apixaban: potential clinical implication.

Currently, several newer oral anticoagulants namely dabigatran (anti-IIa), rivaroxaban (anti-Xa), and apixaban are available for various clinical implications. Another oral anti-Xa edoxaban is under development. A parenteral anti-Xa drug namely otamixaban is also under development for cardiovascular interventions.
