Using a low-molecular weight heparin-calibrated anti-factor Xa assay to assess the concentration of apixaban and rivaroxaban

Henrik von Horn et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the use of an LMWH-calibrated anti-factor Xa assay in estimating FXa-DOAC concentration, and found that the recalculated concentrations were comparable to those measured by LC-MS/MS. It is suggested that this method can provide guidance on apixaban and rivaroxaban concentrations in acute settings with shorter turnaround time and greater availability compared to traditional methods.

Heparin Anti-Xa Activity, a Readily Available Unique Test to Quantify Apixaban, Rivaroxaban, Fondaparinux, and Danaparoid Levels

Elodie Boissier et al.

Summary: The study found that the heparin anti-Xa assay can be used as a screening test to rule out invasive procedures if the levels of specific anticoagulants are contraindicated, and can also quantify the levels if they exceed recommended thresholds. The results showed a strong linear relationship between heparin anti-Xa activities and factor-Xa inhibitors measured levels, with high classification accuracy and agreement between estimated and measured levels. Over 96% of estimated levels fell within an acceptable range of the measured level.

Gary H. Lyman et al.

Summary: These evidence-based guidelines aim to support decision-making on the prevention and treatment of VTE in cancer patients, covering mechanical and pharmacological prophylaxis, as well as recommendations for initial, short-term, and long-term treatment based on patient risk and treatment circumstances. Recommendations vary depending on patient risk level and treatment situation.

A universal anti-Xa assay for rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban measurements: method validation, diagnostic accuracy and external validation

Guido Willekens et al.

Summary: The newly developed universal anti-Xa assay simplifies drug concentration measurement in laboratory procedures and can be widely implemented. Through a prospective study in clinical practice, this method has been shown to accurately measure the concentrations of rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban, and predict relevant clinical levels effectively.

Venous thromboembolism associated with central venous catheters in patients with cancer: From pathophysiology to thromboprophylaxis, areas for future studies

Philippe Debourdeau et al.

Summary: Symptomatic catheter related thrombosis (CRT) occurs in 4%-8% of cancer patients, with a mean incidence of 12-14% detected by echography or Doppler. No validated thromboprophylaxis has been identified, but pharmacological prophylaxis with vitamin K antagonists or low molecular weight heparins can reduce CRT incidence by 55%-60% without increasing major bleeding risk. This prophylaxis should be started before catheter insertion at prophylactic doses and continued thereafter at subtherapeutic doses.
