Update of Novel Anticoagulants
  • Geoffrey L. Uy

Historical Perspective
  • Coumadin
  • Karl Paul Link discovers dicoumarol 1930s
  • Coumadin enters into clinical use 1950s
  • Heparin
  • MacLean Howell isolate heparin 1918
  • Heparin first used in vascular surgery 1930s
  • LMWH approved for use in US 1993
  • Direct Thrombin Inhibitors
  • Hirudin 1894
  • Refludan 1998
  • Argatroban 2000
  • Bivalirudin 2000

Pharmacokinetics
  • Bioavailability 100
  • Maximum concentration is achieved in 2 hours and
    steady state in 3 hours
  • Half-life is 17-22 hours
  • Majority of dose is excreted unchanged in urine

Conclusions
  • Alternative agent for LMWH for prophylaxis or
    initial treatment of venous thromboembolism
  • Treatment of HIT
  • No true antidote although Factor VIIa may be of
    benefit
  • Ongoing trials with Idraparinux

Ximelagatran
  • First oral direct thrombin inhibitor
  • Prodrug of melagatran
  • Well absorbed from GI tract Peak absorption in
    15-30 minutes
  • Peak levels in 2-3 hours
  • Not protein bound
  • Half-life 3-4 hours
  • Eliminated via kidneys

Stroke Prevention Using an Oral Thrombin
Inhibitor in Atrial Fibrillation (SPORTIF III)
  • 7329 patients from 23 nations with nonvalvular
    atrial fibrillation
  • Fixed-dose ximelagatran, 36 mg twice/day,
    compared to dose-adjusted warfarin, target INR
    2.0-3.0
  • Open label design

SPORTIF V
  • 3922 patients from 409 US and Canadian sites with
    nonvalvular atrial fibrillation and one other
    stroke risk factor
  • Fixed-dose ximelagatran, 36 mg twice/day,
    compared to dose-adjusted warfarin, target INR
    2.0-3.0
  • Randomized, double-blinded, double-dummy, using
    sham INR

Results

Liver Toxicity
  • Incidence of elevated ALT gt 3 X ULN
  • THRIVE III
  • 6.4 in Ximelagatran group
  • 1.2 in placebo
  • THRIVE IV
  • 9.6 in Ximelagatran group
  • 2.0 in Enoxaparin/warfarin group
  • SPORTIF V
  • 6.0 in Ximelagatran group
  • 0.8 in Warfarin group
  • One patient death from GI bleed during tx of
    hepatitis

25
Liver Toxicity

Conclusions
  • Impressive results for oral anticoagulant
  • Does not require monitoring of anticoagulation
  • Real world effects may be better than warfarin
  • Trend toward more thromboembolic events with
    ximelagatran in SPORTIF V
  • Unclear significance of LFT abnormalities
