Factor XII inhibition reduces thrombus formation in a primate thrombosis model

Abstract: • Factor XII can contribute to thrombus formation in human and nonhuman primate blood.• An antibody that blocks factor XII activation (15H8) produces an antithrombotic effect in a primate thrombosis model.The plasma zymogens factor XII (fXII) and factor XI (fXI) contribute to thrombosis in a variety of mouse models. These proteins serve a limited role in hemostasis, suggesting that antithrombotic therapies targeting them may be associated with low bleeding risks.Although there is substantial epidemiologic evid… Show more

“…Monoclonal 15H8 not only protected mice from arterial thrombosis, but also reduced platelet accumulation and fibrin formation in a primate vascular graft occlusion model. 37 Antibody 15H8 inhibited factor XIIa generation, which reduces thrombus formation by decreasing thrombin generation. Interestingly, factor XIa inhibition had a more pronounced effect in these models, which suggests that factor XI might be a superior target for anticoagulation than factor XII.…”

“…7 The antibody 15H8 blocked thrombosis in mice and baboon. 14 The development of small molecule FXIIa inhibitors has been challenging. The high structural similarity of FXII to numerous homologous trypsin-like serine proteases makes it difficult to generate selective inhibitors.…”

“…In recent years, however, it has been shown that FXII −/− mice are resistant to experimentally induced thrombosis34, 35 and ischemic brain injury 19. As deficiency of FXII is not associated with abnormal hemorrhaging from injury sites (hemostasis) either in patients or in animals,19, 34 inhibition of activated FXII prevented arterial thrombosis and ischemic brain injury20, 36 without affecting hemostasis 20, 37. Our current study shows that FXII is a promising antithrombotic target for the acute treatment of TBI, without increasing the risk of intracranial hemorrhage.…”
