FVIII half-life extension by coadministration of a D'D3 albumin fusion protein in mice, rabbits, rats, and monkeys.

ABSTRACT: A novel mechanism for extending the circulatory half-life of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) has been established and evaluated preclinically. The FVIII binding domain of von Willebrand factor (D'D3) fused to human albumin (rD'D3-FP) dose dependently improved pharmacokinetics parameters of coadministered FVIII in all animal species tested, from mouse to cynomolgus monkey, after IV injection. At higher doses, the half-life of recombinant FVIII (rVIII-SingleChain) was calculated to be increased 2.6-fold to fivefold compared with rVIII-SingleChain administered alone in rats, rabbits, and cynomolgus monkeys, and it was increased 3.1-fold to 9.1-fold in mice. Sustained pharmacodynamics effects were observed (ie, activated partial thromboplastin time and thrombin generation measured ex vivo). No
