Evaluating prodrug characteristics of a novel anticoagulant fusion protein neorudin, a prodrug targeting release of hirudin variant 2-Lys47 at the thrombosis site, by means of in vitro pharmacokinetics

Recombinant neorudin (EPR-hirudin, EH), a low-bleeding anticoagulant fusion protein, is an inactive prodrug designed to be converted to the active metabolite, hirudin variant 2-Lys47 (HV2), locally at the thrombus site by FXa and/or FXIa, following activation of the coagulation system. Our aim was t...
