Site-specific coagulation factor epitope modification: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Short half-lives of therapeutic peptides lead to frequent dosing and poor patient compliance. Engineering these peptides into antibody scaffolds extends systemic circulation and stabilizes the bioactive conformation.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Site-specific coagulation factor epitope modification?

Therapeutic protein immunogenicity

(31)evidences

Excessive or inappropriate blood clotting leads to life-threatening vascular blockages. Preventing these events without compromising systemic hemostasis reduces mortality in thromboembolic disorders.

Therapeutic resistance and poor bioavailability

(25)evidences

Inadequate immune response prevents effective targeting of pathological cells. Enhancing activation overcomes therapeutic resistance in oncology and infectious disease.

Insufficient therapeutic payload delivery

(7)evidences

Premature release of potent cytotoxic agents causes severe damage to healthy tissues. Restricting activation to the tumor microenvironment improves the therapeutic index.
