Novel Oral Anticoagulants
(NOAC)
Dan Moellentin, PharmD, BCPS,
Associate Professor Husson
University
Strokes in Atrial Fibrillation
• 1/5 of strokes are caused by a. fib
• 1/3 cardiac arrhythmias hospitalizations
• 2 million Americans affected by a. fib
~50% are anti-coagulated?
What would be the best
anticoagulation
Fast onset
Antidote
Brief History of Anticoagulation in
Atrial Fibrillation (a. fib)
Warfarin was approved in 1954
• INR wasn’t created by the World Health
Organization until the 1980’s
Until 2009, warfarin was considered the gold
standard for anticoagulation in a. fib.
Now there are three new oral anticoagulants
FDA approved for anticoagulation in a. fib
Vitamin K antagonist
Drug
• Warfarin
– Blocks vitamin K dependent clotting factors creation,
by inhibiting the vitamin vitamin K epoxide
reductase complex 1 (VKORC1)
– Vitamin K epoxside is responsible for the
regeneration of vitamin K in the vitamin K cycle by
blocking VKORC1
– Inhibit vitamin K epoxide reducatase thus interfering
with levels of II, V, VII, and IX LOOK UP LEVELs##
Patient Case #1
• The majority of warfarin is elimination via
metabolism
– Clinical example---pt post bowel resection--
Genetic Variance in 2C9
• Patients with 2C9 gene variance require lower
doses for therapeutic INR and are at increased
risk of bleeding
• Activity of 2C19 and 2C9 are genetically
determined, 2C9 is more important as it
metabolizes the most potent enantiomer, Swarfarin.
– 20% of Caucasians, 5% Africa Americans (AA), 2%
Asians have a least 1 gene variant
Genetic variations in Vitamin K
epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1)
Loss of function, results in increased sensitivity
to warfarin and increased potential for drug
interactions because VKORC1 does not
function normally to produce vitamin K
dependent clotting factors (II, VII, IX, X,
proteins C and S)
– 37% of Caucasians, 14% of AAs, 89% of
Asians have at least one variant of VKORC1
Clinical Significance of Genetic Testing
before Warfarin initiation
• Not all centers have on-site testing
• Genetic testing costs about $200
• Is it paid for by Medicare part D or private
insurance?
• Adding a few extra days to hospitalization is
expensive
• Is it only useful in guiding early dosing, ie. does it
just save one dose?
• “Drug interactions with warfarin may negate the
influence of genetic variations and must be
considered”.
Cytochrome P450 Interactions
• Drugs that inhibit 2C9
– Bactrim, fluconazole, amiodarone, fluvastatin,
lovastatin, voriconazole, metronidazole,
acetaminophen 2g daily for more than a week,
cimetidine 400mg daily or less, omeprazole at
higher doses,
• 3A4 Strong Inhibitors
– Erythromycin, diltiazem, nefazadone, verapamil
Drugs Affecting Absorption Case #1
Cholestyramine or Colestipol
• Get Dan to write case
Warfarin
MOA: Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA)
Initial dose: 10 mg PO x 2 days, then dose based on
INR
Half-life: 40 hours
Monitoring:
• If INR is ≤ 0.5 from the target range, keep the
same dose and check INR in 1-2 weeks.
• Once INR is stabilized, one INR reading up to
every 12 weeks is adequate.
Only One is Also Approved for DVT/PE
Treatment/Prophylaxis
Rivaroxaban
• “Treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
pulmonary embolism”
• “Reduction in the risk of recurrence of DVT”
• “PE for the prophylaxis of DVT, which may lead to
PE in patients undergoing knee or hip replacement
surgery”
Newly Approved PO anticoagulants
• All 3 are FDA indicated for
– “reducing the risk of stroke and systemic embolism
in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation”
• Direct Thrombin Inhibitor
– Pradaxa® (dabigatran)
• Approved in 2010
• Xa Inhibitors
– Xarelto® (rivaroxaban)
• Approved in 2011
– Eliquis® (Apixaban)
• Approved in 2013

Safety of Triple Antithrombotic Therapy in
ACS Patients
Single Antiplatelet + NOAC
• Aspirin
– ↓’d the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events
(MACE)
• HR 0.70, (95% CI 0.59- 0.84)
– BUT ↑’d clinically relevant bleeding
• HR 1.79 (95% CI 1.54-2.09)
Dual Antiplatelet +NOAC
• Aspirin + Clopidogrel
– ↓’d the occurrence of MACE
• HR 0.87 (95% CI 0.80-0.95)
– More than two fold ↑ in clinically relevant bleeding
• HR 2.34 (95% CI 2.06-2.66)
Risk Assessment
Physicians will need assess the patient’s risk for
• Thromboembolism
– CHADS2 Score ≥ 2 = probably require triple antithrombotic
therapy
• Hemorrhaging
“ Clinicians should strive to limit the use of dual
antiplatelet agents with concurrent antithrombotics in
patients who are at the highest risk for thromoembolic
events and ensure that these patients are instructed to
report any signs and sympotms of bleeding or recurrent
thrombosis” Dager W PharmD PCPS (AQ Cardiology)

Management Algorithm for Rivaroxaban and Apixaban Bleeding
Reversal of Dabigatran
• Since dabigatran directly blocks thrombin and
does not decrease the coagulation factors,
using coagulation factors like, PCC, FFP is NOT
expected to be completely effective as a
reversal agent.
• The best method of reversing dabigatran is to
be excreted out by the kidneys.
What are PCCs?
Prothrombin Complex Concentrates (PCC)
Note: No PCC is FDA approved for reversing anticoagulants
Three Factor (II, IX, X) FDA approved
– Profilnine® SD
– Bebulin® VH
Four Factor (II, VII, IX, X)
• Unactivated (NOT FDA Approved)
– Beriplex P/N
– Octaplex
• Activated
– Feiba NF (Factor VII blocker bypassing function) Factor VII
Blockers)
• Only factor VII is activated
Antibody Antidote for Dabigatran?
Boehringer Ingelheim: manufacture dabigatran
(Pradaxa®)
• Currently developing and studying pre-clinically
a humanized antibody fragment (Fab) that
could be used as a reversal agent for
dabigatran.
– Rats were given dabigatran and “there was a rapid,
dose-dependent decrease in bleeding time after IV
injection of Fab”
– Additionally, the Fab reversed clotting ex vivo as
well.
Reversal of Rivaroxaban?
Phase I Trials
• Four Factor PCC (Factor II, VII, IX and X)
– After 3 days of rivaroxaban and one dose of PCC PT and
ETP was statistically significantly decreased
• PRT4445
– New recombinant protein that blocks Xa inhibitors by
serving as a decoy.
– The manufacters of PRT4445 has report its safe and
tolerable and claims it reverses Xa inhibitors in 5
minutes and last 3 hours, however, the study isn’t
available online yet.
So What is the “Right” Answer?
Pre-clinical studies
Studies showing PCC only improves labs not
bleeding in apixaban and rivaroxaban
Warfarin
Reversal
• Is warfarin really “reversed?”
• Example intracranial hemorrhage (ICH)….
Gastrointestinal Bleeding
• Higher risk for DVT/PE treatment vs. DVT/PE
prophylaxis after hip/knee replacement surgery
– Rivaroxaban 10 mg once daily
• Hip: 35 days
• Knee: 12 days
– Maybe a dose-dependent effect
• Dabigatran and rivaroxaban
– Higher risk than apixaban

Surgery
Dabigatran
• CrCL ≥ 50mL/min stop 1-2 days prior to surgery
• CrCL < 50mL/min stop 3-5 days prior to surgery
Rivaroxaban
• Stop ≥ 48 hours prior to surgery for moderate to severe
bleeding risk
• Stop ≥ 24 hours prior to surgery for normal risk of
bleeding
Apixaban
• Stop ≥ 48 hours prior to surgery for moderate to severe
bleeding risk
• Stop ≥ 24 hours prior to surgery to low risk of bleeding
Monitoring
Dabigatran
• Useful in establishing if drug in present or not
– Normal aPTT: barely any dabigatran present
– TT (Thrombin Time): linear dose-response curve for
dabigatran, NOT after steady-state.

deadly adverse effects
– 44%: thrombotic events
• Majority: PE
• Appearing in prophylaxis for
DVT/PE post surgery and in

» (average age 66)
• Dabigatran
– Bleeding was appearing in elderly
patients (average 80 years old)
ISMP 2012 2nd Quarter Watch
Dabigatran
– The odds of recorded death from dabigatran were
about five fold greater than warfarin.
Rivaroxaban
– The odds of recorded death from rivaroxaban were
about less than two times greater than warfarin.
– 10 mg once daily vs. 20 mg once daily
• 10 mg once daily
– 7 fold greater odds of a recoded emoblicthrombotic occurrence.
FDA Draft Briefing Document for the
Cardiovascular and Renal Drugs
Advisory committee (CRDAC) for
Rivaroxaban
• “Mean compliance rates ranged from a low of 95.2%
(North America, warfarin arm) to a high of 97.1%
(Eastern Europe, rivaroxaban arm)”
• Day 1-30: % of warfarin naïve patients with an INR in 23 range
– 30.68%
• It wasn’t until day 181-360 that over 50% warfarin
naïve patients
• By Day 181-360 50% of warfarin naïve patients had an
INR of 2-3.
