Description | Recombinant human coagulation Factor VIIa is intended for promoting hemostasis by activating the extrinsic pathway of the coagulation cascade. NovoSeven is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein consisting of 406 amino acid residues, cloned and expressed in hamster kidney cells, the protein is catalytically active in a two-chain form. |
Indication/Disease | For treatment of hemorrhagic complications in hemophilia A and B. |
Pharmacodynamics | To treat bleeding episodes in hemophilia A or B. NovoSeven is recombinant Factor VIIa and when complexed with tissue factor can activate coagulation Factor X to Factor Xa, as well as coagulation Factor IX to Factor IXa. Factor Xa, in complex with other factors, then converts prothrombin to thrombin, which leads to the formation of a hemostatic plug by converting fibrinogen to fibrin and thereby inducing local clotting. |
Mechanism of Action | NovoSeven activates the coagulation or clotting cascade by cleaving Factor IX and Factor X, which activates them and then leads to activation of thrombin and fibrin. |
