Novel Oral Anticoagulants: What’s the Evidence?
Mike Boyd, PharmDOctober 21, 2017
Objectives
• Briefly review evidence from major clinical trials of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in atrial fibrillation
• Understand the evidence for the use of DOACs in atrial fibrillation patients in special circumstances‒ Obesity‒ Renal insufficiency‒ Valvular heart disease‒ Periprocedural considerations

Anticoagulation for Atrial Fibrillation
Warfarin
DOACs
Inhibits clotting factor production, does nothing to factors already produced
•Slow onset•Parenteral “bridging” may be needed•Dietary interactions (vit K)•Unpredictable dosing •Reversible: vit K/FFP/PCC
•Rapid onset•No “bridging”•No dependence on vit K= no dietary interactions•Predictable dosing•No specific antidote*
Directly blocks specific clotting factors
Mechanism of Action Result
*reversal agent available for dabigatran

DOAC Use in Obesity

Prevalence¶ of Self-Reported Obesity Among U.S. Adults by State and Territory, BRFSS, 2016
¶ Prevalence estimates reflect BRFSS methodological changes started in 2011. These estimates should not be compared to prevalence estimates before 2011.
*Sample size <50 or the relative standard error (dividing the standard error by the prevalence) ≥ 30%.

ISTH Recommendations
• Standard DOAC dosing in:‒ BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 and‒ Weight ≤ 120 kg
• Avoid DOAC in:‒ BMI > 40 kg/m2 or‒ Weight > 120 kg
• If a DOAC must be used, drug-specific monitoring should be done

Summary of Evidence: Obesity
• PK/PD studies: obesity reduces exposure to DOAC
• RCT sub-group analyses:‒ Not powered for these comparisons‒ Similar results seen compared to overall study population‒ Morbid obesity (BMI>40) under represented
• No accurate means of monitoring available
• ISTH recommendations seem reasonable

• Wang et al.‒ Healthy vs. HD patients (8 each)‒ Single 5mg post-HD dose‒ 36% increase in AUC, no difference in Cmax

Summary of Evidence: Renal Insufficiency
• Current DOAC product labeling only supports apixaban‒ Label recommends unadjusted dose (5mg twice daily)‒ PK data with steady state dosing suggests reduced dose
• ACC/AHA/HRS AF guidelines: warfarin recommended
• KDIGO: routine anticoagulation for 1º prevention of stroke is not indicated

Summary of Evidence: Valvular Heart Disease
• DOACs may be considered in non-MS, native valve disease
• DOACs should be avoided in mechanical valves

Risk Assessment
Bleeding Clotting
Lower Bleeding Risk:• Dental extraction• Diagnostic endoscopy• Thoracentesis, paracentesis
Lower Clotting Risk:• AV replacement• Atrial fib without prior stroke• DVT/PE >3 months
Higher Bleeding Risk:• Cardiac surgery• Neurosurgery• Vascular surgery
Higher Clotting Risk:• Mechanical MV• Multiple mechanical valves• Atrial fib with prior stroke• DVT/PE ≤ 3 months

• Electrophysiology procedures‒ CIEDs
• BRUISE-CONTROL: warfarin (3.5%) vs. bridge (16%)• BRUISE-CONTROL 2: uninterrupted DOAC
‒ Ablation

Conclusions
• RCTs have proven the value of DOACs in AF
• RCTs include select individuals
• Caution should be used interpreting sub-groups from RCTs
• Therapy decisions should be individualized
