Sunday, November 12, 2023

Anthos Therapeutics has initiated an extension study to enable patients to transition from rivaroxaban to abelacimab to benefit from the improved bleeding profile.

Key Points: 
  • Anthos Therapeutics has initiated an extension study to enable patients to transition from rivaroxaban to abelacimab to benefit from the improved bleeding profile.
  • Although currently available anticoagulants are effective in preventing strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation, the risk of bleeding remains an issue.
  • “Based on the evidence to date, we are highly confident that abelacimab will offer a potential game-changing treatment approach for patients with atrial fibrillation."
  • Abelacimab is an investigational agent and is not approved for any indication in any country.

Atrial Fibrillation Study with Abelacimab Stopped Early by the Data Monitoring Committee Due to an Overwhelming Reduction in Bleeding as Compared to a DOAC (Direct Oral Anticoagulant)

Monday, September 18, 2023

The study has been stopped early by the Data Monitoring Committee due to an overwhelming reduction in the composite of major and clinically relevant non-major bleeding in patients taking abelacimab compared with patients taking rivaroxaban, a leading standard-of-care DOAC.

Key Points: 
  • The study has been stopped early by the Data Monitoring Committee due to an overwhelming reduction in the composite of major and clinically relevant non-major bleeding in patients taking abelacimab compared with patients taking rivaroxaban, a leading standard-of-care DOAC.
  • In addition, abelacimab is the first and only Factor XI inhibitor to demonstrate an unprecedented reduction in major bleeding compared to a DOAC, which is the most serious type of bleeding.
  • “The AZALEA-TIMI 71 study is the largest and longest head-to-head study of a Factor XI inhibitor to provide definitive evidence of a highly significant reduction in bleeding as compared to the standard-of-care anticoagulant.
  • Abelacimab 150 mg maintains ~98% inhibition over the dosing interval, recapitulating the benign bleeding profile of patients with genetic Factor XI deficiency.
