3 Outline Review mechanisms of ac0on of an0coagulants Compare the new oral an0coagulants dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban Discuss an0coagulant op0ons in renal impairment Focus on LMWH use in renal impairment Role of an0- Xa monitoring cases with clinical use of LMWH in dialysis Long- term 0nzaparin and an0- Xa levels Triple an0coagulant therapy Bridge Therapy Prophylac0c therapy with dalteparin

6 P- Glycoprotein Drug Interac#ons with NOA P- glycoprotein (P- gp) is a transport protein that func0ons as an efflux pump to prevent absorp0on of certain drugs, including the new oral an0coagulants Inhibitors of P- gp increase absorp0on of NOA Azole antifungals* Ritonavir* amiodarone verapamil quinidine cyclosporin tacrolimus Clarithro/Erythro* Inducers Rifampin** Phenytoin** Carbamazepine** Phenobarbital** Dexamethasone Doxorubicin St. John s Wort** Inhibitors * Also CYP3A4 inhibitor - rivaroxaban ** Also CYP3A4 inducers - rivaroxaban

9 Advantages of New Oral An#coagulants Fixed dosing Monitoring of an0coagulant effect not required Fewer drug interac0ons compared to warfarin

10 Limita#ons of New Oral An#coagulants Inability to Measure an0coagulant effect Poten0al for increased risk of stroke or embolism if poor compliance Poten0al for increased risk of bleed if reduced renal func0on/di (Dabigatran fatal bleeding events worldwide Mar 08 to Oct 11) Lack of specific an0dote Prothrombin complex concentrate (Octaplex ) for intracranial hemorrhage (Octaplex plasma derived, purified Factors II, VII, IX, X, protein C and S) Some drug interac0ons p- glycoprotein inhibitors/inducers Dose adjustments required in renal dysfunc0on Should not be prescribed for egfr < 30 ml/min (BLACK BOX for dabigatran) Cost Rivaroxaban covered for orthopedic prophylaxis (Circula0on 2012;125:165070)

11 An#coagulant Op#ons in Renal Failure Drugs with no significant renal clearance Unfrac0onated heparin (UFH) Warfarin Direct Thrombin Inhibitors: argatroban Direct Factor Xa inhibitors: apixaban (avoid < 15 ml/min) Drugs with significant dependence on renal clearance Low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) Factor Xa inhibitors: Indirect - Pentasaccharide: fondaparinux Direct rivaroxaban Heparinoids: danaparoid Direct Thrombin Inhibitors: lepirudin, bivalirudin, dabigatran

12 Factor Xa Inhibitors FON D Indirect Inhibitors Fondaparinux Idraparinux Direct Inhibitors Rivaroxaban Apixaban Edoxaban Betrixaban

13 Fondaparinux Regional Approval Unstable angina/non- STEMI (2.5 mg SC daily) Management of HIT Tx VTE: 5-10 mg SC daily; Prophylaxis VTE: 2.5 mg SC daily Easier to administer vs argatroban (con0nuous infusion) Elimina0on t/12 = hrs; Elimina0on = 77% unchanged urine Renal Dosing (hemodialysis) case reports Tx VTE: 2.5 mg SC every 2 days (monitor an0- Xa levels 3 h peak ; trough < 0.5) Give dose ater dialysis (Am J Health- Syst Pharm 2010;67:1075-9)

14 LMWH Use in Renal Impairment

15 2012 ACCP Guidelines Appropriate dose of LMWH in pa0ents with severe renal insufficiency (< 30 ml/min) is uncertain Clearance of the an#- Xa effect of LMWH correlates with CrCl (enoxaparin, nadroparin, dalteparin) Excep#on: Tinzaparin not shown to correlate with CrCl If severe renal insufficiency and therapeu0c an0coagula0on required, suggest UFH over LMWH If LMWH is used in pa0ents with severe renal insufficiency for therapeu0c an0coagula0on, suggest monitor an0- Xa levels Garcia et al. Parenteral An0coagulants. Chest 2012;141:24s- 43s.

16 An#- Xa Monitoring (not an exact science) Measure in pa0ents with renal failue (CrCl < 30 ml/min) or obesity Measure peak effect (4 hours) 3-4 hours ater twice daily dosing 4-5 hours ater once daily dosing Twice daily: units/ml Once daily: 1-2 units/ml (Tinzaparin U/mL*) Trough levels < 0.5 units/ml (Semin Thromb Hemost 2001;27:519-22; *Drug Safety 2002;25:725-33)

17 Mean Peak An#- Xa Levels (Normal Renal Func0on) Units/kg Q12H Units/kg daily (Semin Thromb Hemost 2001;27:519-22)

18 Heparin and LMWHs Pentasaccharide sequence binds to AT and accelerates its inhibitory ac0vity Factor Xa requires only pentasaccharide Thrombin requires 18 saccharide units LMWHs have less ac0vity against thrombin as longer chain length required Weitz N Engl J Med 1997.

35 Case 5. LMWH Prophylaxis A paraplegic pa0ent

36 Dalteparin Prophylaxis Trial: DIRECT (Arch Intern Med 2008;168: ) 138 ICU pa0ents, CrCl < 30mL/min (mean 18.9mL/min) 9.4% on dialysis Dalteparin 5000 U SC daily < 30 days (median 7 days; IQR 4-12 days) Trough an0- Xa levels on days 3, 10, 17 Results: All trough an0- Xa levels < 0.4 units/ml No evidence of accumula0on DVT = 5.1% Major bleeding = 7.2% Risk Factors: ASA use, INR
