1 Perioperative management of antithrombotic drugs: New anticoagulants Steen Husted Medical-Cardiological Department Aarhus University Hospital Denmark ESC 2010

2 Perioperative anticoagulation: Risk of bleeding Risk of thromboembolism

3 Evaluating the risk of perioperative bleeding and thromboembolism Important for the risk of bleeding: 1) Patient characteristics hemorrhagic tendency, previous bleeding, previous stroke, high age, reduced renal function etc. 2) Type and intensity of antithrombotic treatment 3) Type of surgery Important for the risk of thromboembolism: 1) Patient co-morbidity 2) Indication for antithrombotic treatment 3) Type of surgery

4 Type of patient: Venous thromboembolism and cardioembolism Low-risk patients - Biological artificial heart valve or mitral valve surgery (>3 mo.) - Venous thromboembolic event (>3 mo.) - Atrial fibrillation without high risk factors* or with no more than one moderate risk factor** - Previous venous thromboembolic event in a patient with mild thrombophilia Anticardiolipin antibodies without lupus anticoagulants Heterozygous for Factor V Leiden or prothrombin variant *previous ischemic stroke, TIA or systemic embolism, artificial heart valve ** left ventricle systolic dysfunction (EF < 30%) and/or heart insufficiency, age >75 year, hypertension, diabetes mellitus.

5 Type of patient: Venous thromboembolism and cardioembolism High-risk patients - Mechanic artificial heart valve - Biologic artificial heart valve or mitral valve surgery (<3 mdr.) - Recent venous thromboembolic event (<3 mo.) - Atrial fibrillation with at least one high risk factor* or at least two moderate risk factors** - Previous venous thromboembolism in patient with severe thrombophilia Lupus anticoagulants Antithrombin deficiency Protein C or protein S deficiency Combined thrombophilic risk fators Homozygous for Faktor V Leiden or prothrombin variant Cancer *previous ischemic stroke, TIA or systemic embolism, artificial heart valve ** left ventricle systolic dysfunction (EF < 30%) and/or heart insufficiency, age >75 year, hypertension, diabetes mellitus.

6 Type of patient: Atherothrombosis Low-risk patients 1) > 12 months after ACS and without angina 2) > 12 months after PCI with stent 3) > 3 months after stroke/tci 4) Intermittent claudication

7 Type of patient: Atherothrombosis High-risk patients 1) 1-12 months after ACS with stable angina 2) 1-12 months after PCI with BMS 3 ) 6-12 months after PCI with DES 3) 1 week-3 months after stroke/tci

8 Type of patient: Atherothrombosis Very high-risk patients 1) <1 month after ACS with angina 2) <1 month after PCI with BMS 3 ) <6 month after PCI with DES 3) <1 week after stroke/tci

9 Bleeding risk category Low-risk patients Diagnostic endoscopy Cataract surgery Oral surgery/dental extraction Arthrocentesis Cutaneous surgery Hernia repair Scrotal surgery Coronary angiography

10 Bleeding risk category High-risk patients Major intraabdominal surgery Major vascular surgery Major orthopedic surgery Prostatectomy or bladder surgery Heart valve replacement Coronary artery bypass graft surgery Major intrathoracic surgery Major cancer surgery Pacemaker Insertion/implantation Biopsy in non-compressible tissue Puncture in non-compressible artery Epidural and spinal anesthesia Very high-risk patients Neurosurgical procedures Retinal surgery

25 Idraparinux/Idrabiotaparinux Novel, synthetic pentasaccharide T ½ 80 hours Administered sc once weekly s.c. Dosage must be reduced in patients with renal insufficiency Does not require monitoring The biotinylated version inactivated by avidin sc=subcutaneously; VTE=venous thromboembolism Gross PL, Weitz JI. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 2008;28:

26 Idrabiotaparinux: Clinical Phase 3 Program Overview Trial Disease and patient segment Status CASSIOPEA Management of PE Enrolling Clinical study assessing SSR126517E injections once-weekly in pulmonary embolism therapeutic approach. EQUINOX International, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study. Bioequipotency study of SSR126517E and Idraparinux in patients with deep venous thrombosis of the lower limbs and study of the neutralizing effect of SSR29261 on the SSR126517Einduced Anti-Xa activity Management of DVT Enrollment completed BOREALIS- AF SSR126517E against warfarin in Patients with atrial fibrillation Prevention of ischemic stroke in atrial fibrillation Study stopped prematurely

27 Avidin : Product profile l Heterologous tetrameric glycoprotein extracted from hen egg whites l High affinity for biotin (Kd=10-15 ) AT Xa l Increased biotinylated idraparinux clearance via a specific, immediate action Biotin arm Avidin Idraparinux Indication: Neutralization of the anticoagulant activity of biotinylated idraparinux (SSR126517E)

28 PK profile of circulating idrabiotaparinux (SSR126517) and debiotinylated active metabolite (SSR115771) in VTE dose regimen 3 mg idrabiotaparinux sc weekly for 6 months SSR SSR Plasma Conc (µm) Time (Months)

29 Reversal of anticoagulant activity at short notice in case of bleeding, overdose, or urgent invasive procedure Two weeks after the last idrabiotaparinux injection there is a negligible amount of circulating biotinylated idraparinux. Therefore there is no rationale to administer avidin beyond 2 weeks after end of treatment with idrabiotaparinux. Avidin indicated at any time from randomization up to 2 weeks following the last injection of idrabiotaparinux. Because of low concetrations of active matabolite avidin alone is sufficient during the first 2 months of treatment with idrabiotaparinux as a first approach for neutralizing anti-xa activity.

30 Reversal of anticoagulant activity for planned invasive procedure Recommended time to wait between the last weekly injection and the procedure (i.e. the time needed to reach a level of inhibition of factor Xa close to the level observed 7 days after a single injection of idrabiotaparinux): 3 weeks for an idrabiotaparinux treatment duration of 2 months or less 2 months for idrabiotaparinux treatment duration of more than 2 months.

31 Reversal of anticoagulant activity at short notice in case of bleeding, overdose, or urgent invasive procedure The use of procoagulant factors (i.e. fresh frozen plasma, prothrombin complex concentrates; or recombinant activated factor VII the latest having been shown to shorten idraparinuxinduced thrombin generation times in healthy subjects), should be considered before procedures with a risk of life threatening bleeding, or of bleeding with potential serious consequences (e.g. closed space surgery such as eye surgery, needle biopsy of deep structures,lumbar puncture).

32 Perioperative idrabiotaparinux (Idbiop) Conclusion: Avidin should be used with last injection of Idbiop within 2 weeks Alternatively if possible in elective cases a treatment pause of 3 weeks with less than 2 months of therapy and 2 months with more than 2 months of therapy with Idbiop Procoagulants should be used in case of urgent intervention with avidin from 2 months after the first and to 2 weeks after the last Idbiop injection and alone from 2 weeks to two months after the last injection Perioperative LMWH should be used both when avidin and when procoagulants have been used Idbiop can be restarted postop. on day 1-3 dependent on hemostasis
