| Targets |
BT200 targets the A1 domain of von Willebrand Factor (VWF), a large multimeric glycoprotein that plays a central role in hemostasis by mediating platelet adhesion and aggregation at sites of vascular injury [3L22-L23]. By binding to the A1 domain, BT200 blocks the interaction between VWF and the platelet receptor glycoprotein Ibalpha (GPIb) [14L2-L4]. This prevents the formation of the primary hemostatic plug and arterial thrombosis. BT200 also has a second, novel mechanism: it decreases the clearance of VWF and its carrier protein factor VIII (FVIII) from the bloodstream, thereby increasing their plasma levels [3L22-L24]. This dual mechanism is unique.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, BT200 has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of VWF-GPIb binding [14L2-L4]. This is typically assessed using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or ELISA-based binding assays. The aptamer binds to the VWF A1 domain with high affinity, effectively blocking the interaction between VWF and the GPIb receptor. It is a high-purity, pegylated nucleic acid used in assay protocols to study thrombosis.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, BT200 has demonstrated efficacy in preventing arterial thrombosis in preclinical models [14L2-L4]. In a healthy volunteer clinical trial, it was shown to increase plasma levels of VWF/FVIII [3L17-L18]. Furthermore, in a study on type 2B von Willebrand disease, rondoraptivon pegol (BT200) increased platelet counts and VWF/FVIII levels, indicating a therapeutic effect beyond simply inhibiting platelet aggregation [3L20-L24]. This in vivo activity supports its research in hemophilia and VWD.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
BT200's binding to the VWF A1 domain is typically assessed using non-cellular techniques such as Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR). In an SPR assay, the VWF A1 domain or full-length VWF is immobilized on a sensor chip. A solution containing varying concentrations of BT200 is flowed over the chip. The association and dissociation rates are monitored in real-time to calculate the equilibrium dissociation constant (KD). Alternatively, an ELISA-based competition assay can be used.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cell-based assays, BT200's activity is assessed by its ability to inhibit VWF-mediated platelet aggregation. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is isolated from whole blood. The PRP is pre-incubated with BT200, then aggregation is induced by adding ristocetin (which promotes VWF-GPIb binding) or botrocetin (which specifically activates VWF). The degree of platelet aggregation is measured by light transmission aggregometry (LTA). BT200's effect on platelet aggregation is quantified and a dose-response curve is generated.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies are performed to evaluate the anti-thrombotic efficacy of BT200. A commonly used model is the ferric chloride-induced arterial thrombosis model in mice. In this model, the carotid artery is injured by applying a patch saturated with FeCl3. BT200 is administered intravenously prior to injury. The time to occlusion (the time it takes for a stable thrombus to completely block the artery) is measured by Doppler flow probe. BT200-treated animals typically show a significantly prolonged time to occlusion or complete prevention of occlusion compared to vehicle controls.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic (PK) data for BT200 in humans and healthy volunteers is available [3L17-L18]. As a pegylated aptamer, it has a longer half-life than its non-pegylated parent, BT100, due to reduced renal clearance. The PEGylation reduces nuclease degradation, increases the hydrodynamic radius, and decreases immunogenicity, resulting in a significantly extended circulation time. Its primary route of elimination is renal and metabolic.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Comprehensive toxicological data for BT200 are not detailed in standard product literature, but it has been evaluated in human trials [3L17-L18]. In a Phase 1 trial in healthy volunteers, it was reported to be safe and well-tolerated. In clinical trials for hemophilia A and type 2B VWD, BT200 also showed a favorable safety profile. As a research-use compound, standard safety precautions for handling aptamers should be followed.

| Additional Infomation |
BT200 (rondaptivon pegol, rondoraptivon pegol) is a pegylated nucleic acid aptamer, derived from BT100, that functions as a VWF inhibitor [14L11-L13]. It is a high-purity (≥98%) compound provided as an off-white to light yellow solid powder [14L2][14L16]. It is water-soluble (≥50 mg/mL) [14L22]. The powder should be stored at -20degC for up to 3 years or at 4degC for 2 years [14L17]. The compound is for research use only and not for human therapy.
