SANORG 34006 is a new sulfated pentasaccharide obtained by chemical
synthesis. It is an analog of the "synthetic pentasaccharide" (SR
90107/ ORG 31540) which represents the antithrombin (AT) binding site
of heparin. SANORG 34006 showed a higher affinity to human AT than SR
90107/ORG 31540 (kd = 1.4 ± 0.3 v 48 ± 11 nmol/L), and it is a potent and selective catalyst of the inhibitory
effect of AT on factor Xa (1,240 ± 15 anti-factor Xa U/mg v
850 ± 27 anti-factor Xa U/mg for SR 90107/ORG 31540). In vitro,
SANORG 34006 inhibited thrombin generation occurring via both the
extrinsic and intrinsic pathway. After intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous (SC) administration to rabbits, SANORG 34006 displayed a
long-lasting anti-factor Xa activity and inhibition of thrombin
generation (TG) ex vivo. SANORG 34006 was slowly eliminated after IV or
SC administration to rats, rabbits, and baboons, showed exceptionally long half-lives (between 9.2 hours in rats and 61.9 hours in baboons), and revealed an SC bioavailability near 100%. SANORG 34006 displayed antithrombotic activity by virtue of its potentiation of the
anti-factor Xa activity of AT. It strongly inhibited thrombus
formation in experimental models of thromboplastin/stasis-induced
venous thrombosis in rats (IV) and rabbits (SC) (ED50
values = 40.0 ± 3.4 and 105.0 ± 9.4 nmol/kg, respectively). The
duration of its antithrombotic effects closely paralleled the ex vivo
anti-factor Xa activity. SANORG 34006 enhanced
rt-PA-induced thrombolysis and inhibited accretion of
125I-fibrinogen onto a preformed thrombus in the rabbit
jugular vein suggesting that concomitant use of SANORG 34006 during
rt-PA therapy might be helpful in facilitating thrombolysis and
preventing fibrin accretion onto the thrombus under lysis. Contrary to
standard heparin, SANORG 34006 did not enhance bleeding in a rabbit ear incision model at a dose that equals 10 times the antithrombotic ED50 in this species and, therefore, exhibited a favorable
therapeutic index. We suggest that SANORG 34006 is a promising compound
in the treatment and prevention of various thrombotic diseases.
