Application Number:15/873,416
Patent Claims:1. A method for reversing the anticoagulant effect of a direct Factor Xa inhibitor in a subject, comprising administering to said subject a Factor Xa variant that contains at least one modification selected from the group consisting of: a) the amino acid at the position corresponding to 235 in SEQ ID NO:1 is substituted with Thr, Leu, Phe, Asp or Gly; and b) the amino acid at the position corresponding to 236 in SEQ ID NO:1 is substituted with Leu, Ala, or Gly, wherein said subject has acute major bleeding and acquired coagulopathy due to FXa inhibition therapy using a direct FXa inhibitor, wherein reversal of the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor effects the urgent reversal of the acquired coagulopathy due to FXa inhibition therapy in said subject with acute major bleeding; and wherein said Factor Xa variant is effective to reverse the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor at a plasma concentration at least 250-fold lower than the plasma concentration of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein reversal of the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor results in a reduction in bleeding of at least about 5%-10%, 10%-15%, 15%-20%, 20%-25%, 25%-30%, 30%-35%, 35%-40%, 40%-45%, 45%-50%, 50%-55%, 55%-60%, 60%-65%, 65%-70%, 70%-75%, 75%-80%, 80%-85%, 85%-90%, 90%-95%, or 95%400%.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein reversal of the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor results in the amount of thrombin being produced to increase by at least about 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 100%, 1.5-fold, 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 10-fold, 15-fold, 20-fold, 25-fold, 30-fold, or 50-fold.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein reversal of the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor results in reduction in clotting time of at least about 5%-10%, 10%-15%, 15%-20%, 20%-25%, 25%-30%, 30%-35%, 35%-40%, 40%-45%, 45%-50%, 50%-55%, 55%-60%, 60%-65%, 65%-70%, 70%-75%, 75%-80%, 80%-85%, 85%-90%, 90%-95%, or 95%-100%.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein the reduction in clotting time is measured using prothrombin time (PT).

6. The method of claim 5, wherein said PT in said subject is about 25 seconds, 24 seconds, 23 seconds, 22 seconds, 21 seconds, 20 seconds, 19 seconds, 18 seconds, 17 seconds, 16 seconds, 15 seconds, 14 seconds, 13 seconds, 12 seconds, 11 seconds, or 10 seconds.

7. The method of claim 5, wherein the International Normalized Ratio (INR) in said subject is about 4.0, 3.9, 3.8, 3.7, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1, 3.0, 2.9, 2.8, 2.7, 2.6, 2.5, 2.4, 2.3, 2.2, 2.1, 2.0, 1.9, 1.8, 1.7, 1.6, 1.5, 1.4, 1.3, 1.2, 1.1, 1.0, 0.9, 0.8, or 0.7.

8. The method of claim 5, wherein PT is determined 15 mins, 20 mins, 30 mins, 40 mins, 45 mins, 50 mins, 60 mins, 75 min, or 90 min after administration of the FXa variant.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the Factor Xa variant is administered before a planned surgery, after an injury or after a direct Factor Xa inhibitor overdose.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein Factor Xa variant is administered more than one time.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein at least one additional procoagulant is administered.

12. The method, composition or use of claim 11, wherein the procoagulant is selected from the group consisting of: a different Factor Xa variant, Factor IX, Factor XIa, Factor XIIa, Factor VIII, Factor VIIa, FEIBA and prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC).

13. The method of claim 1, wherein the plasma concentration of the direct FXa inhibitor is a supratherapeutic amount.

14. The method of claim 1, wherein the direct FXa inhibitor is rivaroxaban, apixaban, betrixaban, darexaban, edoxaban, or otamixaban.

15. The method of claim 1, wherein the plasma concentration of the direct FXa inhibitor is at least about 50 nM, 100 nM, 150 nM, 200 nM, 250 nM, 300 nM, 350 nM, 400 nM, 500 nM, 600 nM, 700 nM, or 800 nM.

16. The method of claim 1, wherein the Factor Xa variant is administered in a dose range of 0.0001 to 50 mg/kg, 0.001 to 50 mg/kg, 0.001 to 5 mg/kg, 0.001 to 0.5 mg/kg, 0.001 to 0.05 mg/kg, 0.01 to 5 mg/kg, or 0.01 to 0.5 mg/kg.

17. The method of claim 1, wherein the Factor Xa variant is administered to achieve a plasma concentration in a range of 0.0003 to 300 nM, 0.003 to 300 nM, 0.03 to 300 nM, 0.003 to 30 nM, 0.03 to 30 nM, or 0.3 to 3 nM.

18. A method for reversing the anticoagulant effect of a direct Factor Xa inhibitor in a subject, comprising administering to said subject a Factor Xa variant comprising Leu at the position corresponding to 235 in SEQ ID NO:1, wherein said subject has acute major bleeding and acquired coagulopathy due to FXa inhibition therapy using a direct FXa inhibitor, wherein reversal of the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor effects the urgent reversal of the acquired coagulopathy due to FXa inhibition therapy in said subject with acute major bleeding; and wherein said Factor Xa variant is effective to reverse the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor at a plasma concentration at least 250-fold lower than the plasma concentration of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor.

19. The method of claim 18, wherein said Factor Xa variant is effective to reverse the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor at a plasma concentration at least 500-fold lower than the plasma concentration of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor.

20. The method of claim 18, wherein said Factor Xa variant is effective to reverse the anticoagulant effect of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor at a plasma concentration at least 1000-fold lower than the plasma concentration of the direct Factor Xa inhibitor.
