A Brief History of Hb-Based
Blood Substitutes
1980 - 2008
1980s:
US Military BEGINS massive (and expensive) research
program to develop hemoglobin (Hb) based blood substitutes.
Numerous private companies (e.g., Somatogen, Baxter, Hemosol,
Northfield, BioPure) begin commercialization of yeast-produced,
human and bovine based Hb-based blood substitutes.
1990s:
US Military STOPS massive (and expensive) research
program to develop Hb-based blood substitutes. Private companies
“soldier on” trying to produce a safe and commercially viable product.
Many fail or abandon development (e.g., Somatogen and Baxter).
2000s:
Despite two decades of commercial (e.g., Hemosol ) and
clinical trial failures, a few companies persist in development of Hbbased blood substitutes (Sangart, Northfield and BioPure).
Commercial success and product safety remain uncertain.

Hemopure: approved for sale in South Africa for surgical patients, anemic patients,
and for eliminating, delaying, or reducing allogenic red blood cell transfusions in
these patients. [Problems with repeated dosing....]
Oxyglobin: oxygen therapeutic approved by the US FDA and the European
Commission for the treatment of anemia in dogs. The Company has sold ~182,000
units of Oxyglobin since approval.

So Why Does Purified Hemoglobin Fail?
The job of blood is to deliver Oxygen to the tissues...
purified hemoglobin does this badly!
Vasoconstriction is
just ONE of the
multitude of problems
associated with
purified hemoglobin
solutions!

In General, “Blood Substitutes” Have Been A
Major Disappointment
Perhaps Darwin Has A Point!
“Hemoglobin shall be INSIDE
red blood cells…” “except, of course,
in earthworms.”
The Book of Darwin:
Chapter 14, Verse 8
However, Darwin’s teachings requires
that the inherent antigenicity and
immunogenicity of the RBC be tamed.

Immunocamouflage of Cells
Since the mid-1970’s methoxypoly(ethylene glycol) [mPEG] has been
“glued” to proteins to prolong circulation and prevent immune
recognition. PEGylated enzymes are currently used for the clinical
treatment of enzymopathies.

Is PEG Safe?
By chemically linking several ethylene glycol monomers
together, a non-toxic polymer [i.e., Poly(ethylene glycol)] is
produced that is commonly used in modern medicine.
Safe
Oral Rat LD50 for:
Monomer
4.7 gm/kg
PEG 200:
28 gm/kg
PEG 1450: 40 gm/kg
PEG 4000: >50 gm/kg
Deadly
~ 4 kg for me...
Safe
At very HIGH levels, PEG oral
toxicity arises due to GI “flow” effects…
