Randomized trial investigates anticoagulation effects of polyglycerol sulfates in comparison to heparin, suggesting potential benefits.

The aim is to assess the anticoagulation activity and mechanism of polyglycerol sulfates compared to unfractionated heparin.
Analyzed different architectures of polyglycerol sulfates for anticoagulation effects.
Conducted a comparative study against unfractionated heparin.
Investigated the mechanism of action focusing on thrombin selectivity.
Anticoagulant activity of polyglycerol sulfates ranged from 15-35% compared to unfractionated heparin.
Linear polyglycerol sulfate exhibited comparable anticoagulant activity to unfractionated heparin.
Identified an antithrombin-independent, thrombin-selective mechanism of action.

Krage et al. (2026) studied this question.
