Abstract Several studies have indicated a profound role for factor VII(a) [FVII(a)] in venous and arterial thrombogenesis. In the present study, we quantified the inhibitory efficacy of dansyl-glutamyl-glycyl-arginyl-recombinant FVIIa (DEGR- rFVIIa) on acute thrombus formation. Thrombus formation was elicited by immobilized tissue factor (TF) in a parallel-plate perfusion chamber device at blood flow conditions characterized by wall shear rates of 100 s−1 (veins) and 650 s−1 (medium-sized healthy arteries). Native human blood was drawn directly from an antecubital vein by a pump into a heparin-coated mixing device in which DEGR-rFVIIa (0.09 to 880 nmol/L final plasma concentration) or buffer was mixed homogeneously with flowing blood. Subsequently, the blood was passed over a plastic coverslip coated with TF and phospholipids in the parallel-plate perfusion chamber. Fibrin deposition, platelet-fibrin adhesion, and platelet thrombus volume triggered by this surface were measured by morphometry. DEGR-rFVIIa inhibited thrombus formation in a dose-dependent manner, but the efficacy was shear rate dependent. At a wall shear rate of 100 s−1 , the IC50 (50% inhibition) was 30 nmol/L, whereas at 650 s−1 , the IC50 was 0.6 nmol/L. Binding studies to immobilized TF under flow conditions using surface plasmon resonance revealed a significantly higher on-rate for DEGR-rFVIIa and FVIIa than for FVII, 2.8×10,5 2.6×105 , and 1.8×105 m −1 s−1 , respectively. This indicates that a contributing factor to the shear-dependent efficacy may be a differential importance of on-rates at arterial and venous blood flow conditions.
