andexanet alfa - Generic Medications

ANDEXXA (coagulation factor Xa (recombinant), inactivated-zhzo) is a sterile, white to off-white lyophilized powder available in single-dose vials. Each 200 mg vial delivers 200 mg of coagulation factor Xa formulated with the inactive ingredients tromethamine (Tris base), Tris hydrochloride, L-arginine hydrochloride, sucrose (1% w/v), mannitol (2.5% w/v), and polysorbate 80 (0.01% w/v) at pH 7.8. After reconstitution of the lyophilized powder with SWFI for IV administration, the product is a clear, colorless to slightly yellow solution. ANDEXXA contains no preservatives. The active ingredient in ANDEXXA is a genetically modified variant of human FXa. The active site serine was substituted with alanine, rendering the molecule unable to cleave and activate prothrombin. The gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) domain was removed to eliminate the protein's ability to assemble into the prothrombinase complex, thus removing the potential anticoagulant effects. No additives of human or animal origin are used in the manufacture of ANDEXXA. The recombinant protein is produced in a genetically engineered Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell expression system and has a molecular weight of approximately 41 kDa. The manufacturing process incorporates two validated virus clearance steps.
