Soy phosphatidylinositol containing nanoparticle prolongs hemostatic activity of B-domain deleted factor VIII in hemophilia A mice.

ABSTRACT: Factor VIII (FVIII) replacement therapy in hemophilia A (HA) is complicated by a short half-life and high incidence of inhibitory antibody response against the protein. Phosphatidylinositol (PI) containing lipidic nanoparticles have previously been shown to reduce the immunogenicity and prolong the half-life of full length FVIII. It has not been established whether this prolongation in half-life improves hemostatic efficacy and whether this approach could be extended to the B-domain deleted form of FVIII (BDD FVIII). In the current study, we evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PK), hemostatic efficacy, and immunogenicity of BDD FVIII associated with PI nanoparticles (PI-BDD FVIII) in HA mice. Comparative human PK was predicted using an "informed scaling" approach. PI-BDD FVIII showed an approximate 1.5-fold increase in terminal half-life compared with free BDD FVIII following i.v. bolus doses of 40 IU/kg. PI-BDD FVIII-treated animals retained hemostatic efficacy longer than the free FVIII-treated group in a tail vein transection model of hemostasis. PI association reduced the development of inhibitory and binding antibodies against BDD FVIII after a series of i.v. injections. The combined improvements in circulating half-life and hemostatic efficacy could significantly prolong the time above clinically established therapeutic thresholds of prophylactic FVIII replacement therapy in humans.

Project description:Essentials Inhibitor formation remains a challenging complication of hemophilia A care. The Bethesda assay is the primary method used for determining bleeding risk and management. Antibodies that block factor VIII binding to von Willebrand factor can increase FVIII clearance. Antibodies that increase clearance contribute to antibody pathogenicity. SUMMARY:Background The development of neutralizing anti-factor VIII (FVIII) antibodies remains a challenging complication of modern hemophilia A care. In vitro assays are the primary method used for quantifying inhibitor titers, predicting bleeding risk, and determining bleeding management. However, other mechanisms of inhibition are not accounted for in these assays, which may result in discrepancies between the inhibitor titer and clinical bleeding symptoms. Objectives To evaluate FVIII clearance in vivo as a potential mechanism for antibody pathogenicity and to determine whether increased FVIII dosing regimens correct the associated bleeding phenotype. Methods FVIII-/- or FVIII-/- /von Willebrand factor (VWF)-/- mice were infused with anti-FVIII mAbs directed against the FVIII C1, C2 or A2 domains, followed by infusion of FVIII. Blood loss via the tail snip bleeding model, FVIII activity and FVIII antigen levels were subsequently measured. Results Pathogenic anti-C1 mAbs that compete with VWF for FVIII binding increased the clearance of FVIII-mAb complexes in FVIII-/- mice but not in FVIII-/- /VWF-/- mice. Additionally, pathogenic anti-C2 mAbs that inhibit FVIII binding to VWF increased FVIII clearance in FVIII-/- mice. Anti-C1, anti-C2 and anti-A2 mAbs that do not inhibit VWF binding did not accelerate FVIII clearance. Infusion of increased doses of FVIII in the presence of anti-C1 mAbs partially corrected blood loss in FVIII-/- mice. Conclusions A subset of antibodies that inhibit VWF binding to FVIII increase the clearance of FVIII-mAb complexes, which contributes to antibody pathogenicity. This may explain differences in the bleeding phenotype observed despite factor replacement in some patients with hemophilia A and low-titer inhibitors.
