Summary Coagulopathy is recognized as a significant aspect of morbidity in COVID-19 patients. The clotting cascade is propagated by a series of proteases, including factor Xa and thrombin. Other host proteases, including TMPRSS2, are recognized to be important for cleavage activation of SARS-CoV-2 spike to promote viral entry. Using biochemical and cell-based assays, we demonstrate that factor Xa and thrombin can also directly cleave SARS-CoV-2 spike, enhancing viral entry.

Schirmer, MD, PHD,* Magnus Baumhäkel, MD,* Hans-Ruprecht Neuberger, MD, PHD,* Stefan H. Hohnloser, MD,† Isabelle C. van Gelder, MD, PHD,‡§ Gregory Y. H. Lip, MD,ʈ Michael Böhm, MD* Homburg/Saar and Frankfurt, Germany; Groningen and Utrecht, the Netherlands; and Birmingham, England, United Kingdom Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac rhythm disorder and a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. Antithrombotic therapy using aspirin or vitamin K antagonists (VKA) is currently prescribed for prevention for ischemic stroke in patients with AF. A narrow therapeutic range and the need of regular monitoring of its antico- agulatory effect impair effectiveness and safety of VKA, causing a need for alternative anticoagulant drugs. Re- cently developed anticoagulants include direct thrombin antagonists such as dabigatran or factor Xa inhibitors such as rivaroxaban, apixaban, betrixaban, and edoxaban. Currently, data from a phase III clinical trial are avail- able for dabigatran only, which show the direct thrombin antagonist to be at least noninferior in efficacy to VKA for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with AF. This review focuses on current advances in the development of directly acting oral anticoagulant drugs and their potential to replace the VKA class of drugs in patients with AF.

  • What Is/Are the Best Oral Anticoagulant/S for Primary Prevention, Treatment
    What is/are the best oral anticoagulant/s for primary prevention, treatment and secondary prevention of venous thromboembolic disease, and for prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation? Protocol Background and Rationale Importance of the health problem to the NHS Thrombosis followed by embolization to distant organs occurs in both arterial and venous circulation and these conditions can be treated or prevented by oral anticoagulant treatment. Venous thromboembolic disease Venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) (UK annual incidence 183 per 100,000) encompasses clot formation in deep veins of legs or pelvis (deep vein thrombosis (DVT; annual incidence 123 per 100,000), and their displacement to pulmonary arteries (pulmonary embolism (PE; annual incidence 60 per 100,000). Important risk factors for VTE include major surgery, particularly lower limb orthopaedic surgery and surgery for cancer, as well as hospitalization in acutely ill general medical patients (approximate incidence 15%). VTE costs the NHS £640 million and is responsible for approximately 30,000 (10%) deaths each year in hospitals in England. DVT is also an important cause of long-term morbidity, being a major risk factor for chronic leg ulceration. PE may also lead to long- term morbidity due to pulmonary hypertension. There is an approximately 30% risk of recurrence of VTE within 8 years. The risk of VTE during hospitalisation for surgical or medical treatment can be reduced by low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), fonaparinux or unfractionated heparin.1 Warfarin is the most frequently prescribed anticoagulant for the initial treatment and for the long-term secondary prevention of VTE in those deemed to be at high risk of recurrence.

  • Homology Modeling of TMPRSS2 Yields Candidate Drugs That May Inhibit Entry of SARS-Cov-2 Into
    Homology modeling of TMPRSS2 yields candidate drugs that may inhibit entry of SARS-CoV-2 into human cells. 1 2 3 4 4 1 Stefano Rensi ,​ Allison Keys ,​ Yu-Chen Lo ,​ Alexander Derry ,​ Greg McInnes ,​ Tianyun Liu ,​ Russ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Altman1,2,4,5 ​ 1 D​ epartment of Bioengineering, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA 2 D​ epartment of Computer Science, Stanford University, CA, USA 3 P​ ediatrics, Bass Center for Childhood Cancer, Stanford School of Medicine, Stanford, CA, USA. 4 D​ epartment of Biomedical Data Science, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA 5 D​ epartments of Genetics, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA Correspondence to: [email protected], [email protected] ​ ​ ​ ABSTRACT The most rapid path to discovering treatment options for the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is to find existing medications that are active against the virus. We have focused on identifying repurposing candidates for the transmembrane serine protease family member II (TMPRSS2), which is critical for entry of coronaviruses into cells. Using known 3D structures of close homologs, we created seven homology models. We also identified a set of serine protease inhibitor drugs, generated several conformations of each, and docked them into our models. We used three known chemical (non-drug) inhibitors and one validated inhibitor of TMPRSS2 in MERS as benchmark compounds and found six compounds with predicted high binding affinity in the range of the known inhibitors. We also showed that a previously published weak inhibitor, Camostat, had a significantly lower binding score than our six compounds. All six compounds are anticoagulants with significant and potentially dangerous clinical effects and side effects.

Weitz, MD, FCCP; Jack Hirsh, MD, FCCP; and Meyer M. Samama, MD This chapter focuses on new antithrombotic drugs that are in phase II or III clinical testing. Development of these new agents was prompted by limitations of existing antiplatelet, anticoag- ulant, or fibrinolytic drugs. Addressing these unmet needs, this chapter (1) outlines the rationale for development of new antithrombotic agents, (2) describes the new antiplatelet, anticoagulant, and fibrinolytic drugs, and (3) provides clinical perspectives on the opportunities and challenges faced by these novel agents.
