Tissue factor pathway inhibitor primes monocytes for antiphospholipid antibody-induced thrombosis.

ABSTRACT: Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) with complex lipid and/or protein reactivities cause complement-dependent thrombosis and pregnancy complications. Although cross-reactivities with coagulation regulatory proteins contribute to the risk for developing thrombosis in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome, the majority of pathogenic aPLs retain reactivity with membrane lipid components and rapidly induce reactive oxygen species-dependent proinflammatory signaling and tissue factor (TF) procoagulant activation. Here, we show that lipid-reactive aPLs activate a common species-conserved TF signaling pathway. aPLs dissociate an inhibited TF coagulation initiation complex on the cell surface of monocytes, thereby liberating factor Xa for thrombin generation and protease activated receptor 1/2 heterodimer signaling. In addition to proteolytic signaling, aPLs promote complement- and protein disulfide isomerase-dependent TF-integrin ?1 trafficking that translocates aPLs and NADPH oxidase to the endosome. Cell surface TF pathway inhibitor (TFPI) synthesized by monocytes is required for TF inhibition, and disabling TFPI prevents aPL signaling, indicating a paradoxical prothrombotic role for TFPI. Myeloid cell-specific TFPI inactivation has no effect on models of arterial or venous thrombus development, but remarkably prevents experimental aPL-induced thrombosis in mice. Thus, the physiological control of TF primes monocytes for rapid aPL pathogenic signaling and thrombosis amplification in an unexpected crosstalk between complement activation and coagulation signaling.

Project description:IntroductionBefovacimab (formerly BAY 1093884) is a fully human monoclonal antibody able to bind to tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) and developed as a non-replacement therapy for individuals with haemophilia A/B, with or without inhibitors.AimTo assess the safety of multiple escalating doses of befovacimab in individuals with severe haemophilia A/B with or without inhibitors.MethodsIn this non-randomised, open-label Phase 2 study (NCT03597022), adult males with <1% factor VIII or <2% factor IX and ≥4 bleeds in the previous six months were enrolled in three dose cohorts (100/225/400 mg). Participants received befovacimab subcutaneously once weekly. The primary endpoint was safety; secondary endpoints included annualised bleeding rate (ABR) and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of befovacimab.ResultsA total of 24 participants (n = 8 in each dose cohort) were treated for 2-47 weeks. Patients treated with 100 mg and 225 mg doses of befovacimab demonstrated improved bleeding control compared with pre-study bleeding rates, with a dose-dependent effect. Dosing was suspended and the study prematurely terminated following three drug-related thrombotic serious adverse events (SAEs): two at the 225 mg dose and one at the 400 mg dose. These occurred in the absence of bleeding episodes or concomitant use of replacement/bypass therapies. No laboratory abnormalities were observed, and PK/PD data did not show correlation between SAE occurrence and levels of circulating befovacimab or free TFPI.ConclusionDespite favourable initial results from preclinical and clinical studies, a positive safety profile of befovacimab was not confirmed. The lack of SAE-related laboratory abnormalities or differentiating PK/PD characteristics in participants experiencing SAEs raises concerns about the predictability of thrombosis following befovacimab treatment and emphasises the need for further investigation into the therapeutic window of anti-TFPI treatment.
