Essentials• Factor VIIa is cleared principally as a complex with antithrombin.• Enzyme/serpin complexes are preferred ligands for the scavenger-receptor LRP1.• Factor VIIa/antithrombin but not factor VIIa alone is a ligand for LRP1.• Macrophage-expressed LRP1 contributes to the clearance of factor VIIa/antithrombin.
