Abstract: Compositions and methods for inhibiting thrombosis without compromising hemostasis are described. Compositions include anti-factor XI monoclonal antibodies (aXIMabs) capable of binding to an epitope on the heavy chain of human FXI, particularly the A3 domain of the heavy chain of human FXI. Compositions also include epitope-binding fragments, variants, and derivatives of the monoclonal antibodies, cell lines producing these antibody compositions, and isolated nucleic acid molecules encoding the amino acid sequences of the antibodies. The disclosure further includes pharmaceutical compositions comprising the disclosed anti-factor XI monoclonal antibodies, or epitope-binding fragments, variants, or derivatives thereof, in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for inhibiting the anticoagulation effect of a thrombin inhibitor in a patient in need thereof comprising administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a variant prothrombin or thrombin that is capable of binding the thrombin inhibitor and that has reduced procoagulant activity. Variant prothrombins or thrombins of use in the methods of the present invention include thrombin mutants W215A, W215A/E217A, or variants thereof in which the amino acids at positions 215 and/or 217 are alanine. Methods are also provided in which the thrombin mutants are administered with an additional active agent, particularly hemostatic agents such as activated factor VII or activated prothrombin complex concentrate. In one embodiment of the invention, the methods are useful in the treatment of patients in which a direct thrombin inhibitor has been administered, particularly argatroban.
