2 Overview 3 1. Thrombosis and Bleeding Risk in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) 2. Review of Oral Anticoagulants in Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation (NVAF) and Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) 3. Dissecting Evidence of Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) in Chronic Kidney Disease Mild-Moderate Renal Impairment Moderate-Severe Renal Impairment Patients Receiving Dialysis 4. Patient Case Objectives 4 1. Explain the risks of thrombosis and bleeding in patients with CKD. 2. Compare and contrast the evidence associated with using DOACs and warfarin in patients with CKD. 3. Select appropriate oral anticoagulant therapy for a patient with CKD based on supporting evidence and clinical factors. 2

3 Thromboembolism in CKD 5 The risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) starts to increase at egfr < 75 ml/min/1.73m2. Risk for VTE increases by more than 2-fold in patients with Stages 3 and 4 CKD. There is an associated 35% mortality rate in patients on dialysis who experienced a stroke. Curr Opin Pulm Med. 2009;15(5): J Am Soc Nephrol. 2008;19(1): Am J Kidney Dis. 2009;54(3): Hemostasis 3

8 Guideline Recommendations 2014 ACC/AHA/HRS Atrial Fibrillation For patients with non-valvular AF and moderate-to-severe CKD with CHA2DS2-VASc score > 2 treatment with reduced doses of direct thrombin or factor Xa inhibitors may be considered but safety and efficacy have not been established. (Class IIb; Level C) For patients with non-valvular AF with a CHA2DS2-VASc score > 2 and who have end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD) (creatinine clearance [CrCl] <15 ml/min) or are on hemodialysis, it is reasonable to prescribe warfarin (INR 2.0 to 3.0) for oral anticoagulation (Class IIa; Level B) CHEST VTE Treatment NOACs and LMWH are contraindicated with severe renal impairment. Dosing of NOACs with levels of renal impairment differ with the NOAC and among jurisdictions. Vitamin K Antagonist is preferred. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2014;64(21):e1-76.

Bleeding risk compared to warfarin increases as renal function declines. Overall, dabigatran is not an ideal anticoagulant for patients with a CrCl between 30 and 50 ml/min, and should not be used in patients with ESRD on dialysis. 12

Rivaroxaban Takeaways 28 In patients with CrCl > 50 ml/min, there was a statistically significant, but clinically insignificant increased risk of major bleeding versus warfarin in patients with NVAF. In patients with CrCl between 30 and 49 ml/min, rivaroxaban was similar to warfarin in preventing stroke in NVAF and associated with less intracranial hemorrhage. In patients with CrCl < 50 ml/min, rivaroxaban was similar to warfarin in treating VTE and significantly reduced major bleeding. Overall, rivaroxaban may be a reasonable alternative to warfarin in patients with a CrCl 30 and 49 ml/min. 14

In patients with CrCl between 25 and 30 ml/min, apixaban was associated with a 50% reduction in bleeding risk.

In patients with CrCl between 30 and 50 ml/min, edoxaban was associated with decreased bleeding risk compared to warfarin in NVAF. In patients with CrCl between 30 and 50 ml/min, recurrent symptomatic VTE and bleeding rates were less than that of warfarin. Overall, edoxaban is a reasonable alternative to warfarin in patients with CrCl between 30 and 95 ml/min. 18

22 Summary of DOACs in Dialysis 43 Dabigatran and rivaroxaban were each associated with an increased risk of bleeding compared to warfarin in patients with NVAF on hemodialysis. Retrospective data in NVAF suggest that apixaban may be as effective as warfarin in patients with NVAF on dialysis.

23 Take Home Points 45 Hemostasis in patients with CKD is impaired, increasing the risk of both thrombosis and bleeding. Highest quality evidence stems from subgroup analyses and retrospective cohorts. Dabigatran should not be used for stroke prevention in NVAF in patients with severe renal impairment and ESRD. Rivaroxaban may be considered in patients with a CrCl between 30 and 50 ml/min. Apixaban is associated with less bleeding risk compared to warfarin patients with moderate to severe renal impairment and in patients on hemodialysis. In addition to renal impairment, other factors must be considered when selecting oral anticoagulation in patients with CKD. Patient LW 46 LW is a 65 year-old African American woman with a history of DM, CKD, HTN, epilepsy and NVAF who presented to the ED with progressively worsening palpitations.
