1 Objectives New and Emerging Anticoagulants Adraine Lyles, PharmD, BCPS Clinical Pharmacy Specialist VCU Medical Center Describe the pharmacology of the novel oral anticoagulants Discuss the clinical evidence that led to the approval of dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban Review the prescribing information for the initiation and discontinuation of the new anticoagulants Objectives (continued) Discuss safety concerns associated with the new anticoagulants Review the patient education necessary for safe administration of dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban Development of New Anticoagulants Wish list for healthcare providers Improvements in anticoagulant safety More predictability in response Simplified dosing Wish list for patients Improvements in anticoagulant safety Less frequent monitoring Ease of administration 1

2 New Anticoagulant Classes Oral Direct Thrombin (Factor IIa) Inhibitors Dabigatran (Pradaxa ) Factor Xa Inhibitors Rivaroxaban (Xarelto ) Apixaban (Eliquis ) Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. ; 32: Development Timeline 2003: clinical trials conducted on ximelagatran (Exanta) 2006: Exanta NDA withdrawn by FDA 2010: FDA approval of dabigatran 2011: FDA approval of rivaroxaban : FDA approval of apixaban Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. ; 32: Dabigatran Rivaroxaban Apixaban Brand Name Pradaxa Xarelto Eliquis Rx Class DTI Factor Xa Inhibitor Factor Xa Inhibitor Indication(s) CVA prevention in AF VTE prevention in ortho surgery; VTE treatment Half life (hrs) Bioavailability (%) 3 7% % ~66% Renal Cl (%) DDIs P gp inducers/ P gp and CYP3A4 inducers/ Frequency BID QD BID P gp and CYP3A4 inducers/ Dabigatran Evidence From RE LY pts with Afib Outcomes: CVA or systemic embolism Comparator: Adjusted dose warfarin Avg CHADS2=2; TTR=64 in warfarin gp Results 150mg dose superior to warfarin in reduction of hemorrhagic and ischemic CVA; 110mg dose noninferior to warfarin; no increase in bleeding but increase in MI Connolly S el al.

3 Dabigatran Dosing 150 mg PO twice daily Special Populations Renal Insufficiency 80% renal excretion 75mg PO twice daily in pts with CrCl No dosing recommendations for pts with CrCl<15 Dabigatran Conversions Warfarin to dabigatran Start dabigatran when INR < 2.0 Dabigatran to warfarin CCl CrCl >50: start warfarin 3 days bf before d/c CrCl 31 50: start warfarin 2 days before d/c CrCl 15 30: start warfarin 1 day before d/c CrCl < 15: no recommendations Dabigatran Conversions Dabigatran to Parenteral Wait hrs (depending on RF) after last dose of dabigatran to start parenteral Parenteral to Dabigatran Start dabigatran 0 2hrs before next scheduled dose of parenteral, OR Start dabigatran at the d/c of a continuous infusion Dabigatran Advantages As safe and effective as warfarin, without the monitoring and extensive list of interactions Disadvantages Major safety concerns due to increase risk of major bleeding, esp. in the elderly Controversy over approved 75mg dose ADR of dyspepsia No immediate future for additional indications Practice Guideline Support ACCF/AHA Dabigatran is useful as an alternative to warfarin for the prevention of stroke and systemic thromboembolism in patients with atrial fibrillation and risk factors for stroke or systemic embolization (Level of evidence: B) ACCP For patients with AF, including those with paroxysmal AF, for recommendations in favor of oral anticoagulation, we suggest dabigatran 150mg BID rather than adjusted dose vitamin K antagonist (Grade 2B) Includes patients with AF and a CHADS 2 score of >/= 1 Rivaroxaban was not approved at the time of the writing of the guidelines.
