Large-Scale Production and Properties of Immunoaffinity- Purified Human Activated Protein C Concentrate

Abstract: Activated protein C (APC) is a highly specific serine proteinase which functions as an important naturally occurring antithrombotic enzyme. APC also has antiinflammatory properties. We have developed a large-scale process for the production of APC for therapeutic use starting with cryoprecipitate-poor human plasma. This report describes the process, its performance at the pilot plant scale, and the characteristics of immunoaffmity-purified human APC concentrate referred to as APC (human). The process consists … Show more

“…For preparation of mAb‐immobilized gel, Sepharose Fast Flow (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) was activated with cyanogen bromide (Nakarai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan) and the mAb was coupled to the activated gel at a mean density of 5 mg of mAb/ml of gel [15]. Anti‐FVII mAb was quantified by sandwich ELISA for murine IgG, using a modification of a previously described procedure [16]. The limit of detection for anti‐FVII mAb was 0·25 ng/ml.…”

“…Processes to manufacture protein C (PC) from plasma have been developed and PD‐PC concentrates commercialized in Europe for many years for the treatment of patients with deficiency [2,98]. The plasma fractionation industry, however, failed to develop an activated PC (aPC), although thrombin activation of PC could readily be used to prepare stable aPC [99]. Rh‐aPC has been successfully expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells.…”
