Direct Oral Anticoagulants in the Treatment of Venous Thromboembolism: Use in Patients with Advanced Renal Impairment, Obesity, or Other Weight-Related Special Populations

Abstract: There are currently more than 7 million patients taking a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC), with more new prescriptions per year than warfarin. Despite impressive efficacy and safety data for the treatment of venous thromboembolism, patients with obesity or advanced renal impairment represented a small portion of the patients enrolled in the phase 3 clinical trials. Therefore, to evaluate the potential use of DOACs in these special populations, clinicians need to have an understanding of the pharmacokinetics a… Show more

“…In addition, DOACs have been found to be safe and well-tolerated, with a lower incidence of major bleeding events compared to traditional anticoagulants. As a result, DOACs have been incorporated into international guidelines for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders [6][7][8]. Additionally, direct thrombin inhibitors and Factor Xa antagonists have become popular in several areas of cardiovascular medicine, replacing K-vitamin antagonists and, to some extent, low-molecular weight heparins.…”
