The report analyzes the markets for factor XIII concentrates, fibrinogen concentrates, albumins,
antithrombins and prothrombin complex concentrates in the US, the top five countries of Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain), and Japan.
Lower limits of detection were 1-2% for the intrinsic factors (VIII, IX, XI, and XII), 5-7% for the extrinsic factors (II, V, VII, and X), and 10% for proteins C and S and
antithrombin activity.
6) Furthermore, patients who have
antithrombin, protein C or protein S deficiencies, multiple inherited risk factors, or homozygosity for Factor V Leiden, were found to have increased risk of recurrence compared with patients without them.
The company's lead product, ATryn is the first and only plasma-free
antithrombin concentrate.
Antithrombin (Recombinant), is the first and only plasma-free
antithrombin concentrate.
To make the drug, scientists from GTC put modified DNA, that is recombinant DNA, or rDNA, for the human
antithrombin protein into single-cell embryos of goats.
Two enzymatic assay principles exist for the determination of
antithrombin activity, both using a chromogenic substrate.
1) These scaled-down versions of the traditional heparin chain have the specific pentasaccharide sequence that is necessary to bind with
antithrombin.

Antithrombin is a blood protein that regulates clotting.
Additional study of the other endogenous anticoagulants, including
antithrombin III and activated protein C (in the absence of heparin), may be warranted, they concluded.
