Description

Betrixaban is a highly potent, selective, and orally efficacious factor Xa (fXa) inhibitor with IC50 of 1.5 nM.


Betrixaban is a secondary carboxamide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 4-(N,N-dimethylcarbamimidoyl)benzoic acid with the amino group of 2-amino-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)-5-methoxybenzamide. A synthetic anticoagulant compound that targets activated factor Xa in the coagulation cascade. It has a role as an anticoagulant and an EC 3.4.21.6 (coagulation factor Xa) inhibitor. It is a member of guanidines, a member of benzamides, a secondary carboxamide, a monochloropyridine and a monomethoxybenzene.|Betrixaban is a non-vitamin K oral anticoagulant whose action is driven by the competitive and reversible inhibition of the factor Xa. It was selected among all lead compounds due to its low hERG channel affinity while sustaining its factor Xa inhibition capacity. Betrixaban, now developed by Portola Pharmaceuticals Inc., is prescribed as a venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylactic for adult patients with moderate to severe restricted motility or with other risks for VTE. VTE can be manifested as deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism and it is a leading cause of preventable death in hospitalized patients.|Betrixaban is a Factor Xa Inhibitor. The mechanism of action of betrixaban is as a Factor Xa Inhibitor.|Betrixaban is an oral anticoagulant and direct inhibitor of factor Xa which is used to decrease the risk of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolus in hospitalized patients at high risk for venous thromboses. Betrixaban has been linked to a low rate of serum aminotransferase elevations during therapy, but has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent liver injury.|Betrixaban is an orally active inhibitor of coagulation factor Xa (activated factor X) with anticoagulant activity. Betrixaban is primarily excreted unchanged in the bile and has a half life of about 19 hours.

Toxicity

Betrixaban presents a minimal hepatotoxicity, which is the main adverse effect found in this class of drugs. Some of the major adverse effects of Betrixaban are bleeding or hypersensitivity.

In prelicensing studies, serum aminotransferase elevations of greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) occurred in 1% to 2% of betrixaban-treated patients and in a similar proportion of control subjects treated with enoxaparin. Similarly, aminotransferase levels rose to above 5 times ULN in 0.6% of betrixaban and 0.4% of enoxaparin treated control subjects. Aminotransferase elevations with jaundice arose in

Betrixaban is reported to be present a proteing binding of about 60%.

Drug Information

Betrixaban is indicated for prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in conditions of moderate to severe restricted mobility or in patients that qualify as in risk of VTE.|FDA Label|Prevention of venous thromboembolism

Betrixaban is an oral anticoagulant and direct inhibitor of factor Xa which is used to decrease the risk of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolus in hospitalized patients at high risk for venous thromboses. Betrixaban has been linked to a low rate of serum aminotransferase elevations during therapy, but has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent liver injury.

Antithrombotic Agents

Betrixaban is an oral anticoagulant that excerts its action by preventing thrombin generation without having a direct effect on platelet aggregation.

Endogenous factors and drugs that inhibit or block the activity of FACTOR XA. (See all compounds classified as Factor Xa Inhibitors.)

Betrixaban presents a rapid absorption at a dose of 80 mg. Its peak plasma concentration is registered within 3-4 hours after oral administration in healthy humans. The oral bioavailability is 34%, and it can be reduced with the consumption of food. Specifically, the Cmax and AUC is reduced by an average of 70% and 61% with a low-fat meal, and 50% and 48% with a high-fat meal compared to the fasted state, an effect which is apparent up to six hours following food intake.|Betrixaban is reported to present mainly a gastrointestinal elimination route, it has been shown that even 85% of it gets disposed in the feces and only 11% of it can be found in the urine.|The apparent volume of distribution os 32 L/kg.|Betrixaban presents a minimal renal clearance (being 5-7% of the administered dose).

One of the major characteristics of Betrixaban is its minimal hepatic metabolism (< 1%), preventing potential accumulation with liver impariment. Unchanged Betrixaban is the main form found in human plasma, followed by two hydolitic CYP-independent inactive metabolites (15-18%). The minimal hepatic metabolism produces an unlikely drug-to-drug interaction with inhibitors or agonists of CYP450.

Betrixaban presents a long half-life of between 19-27 hours.

Betrixaban is a cofactor-independent direct inhibitor of the Factor Xa and inhibits free and prothrombinase-bound Factor Xa.
