XARELTO - Reversal Agents in Human Studies - aPCC - Perzborn et al (2014)

Last updated : 05/16/2024

In the Perzborn et al (2014) study, nanofiltered aPCC (FEIBA NF®, 0.2-1.0 U/mL) had the following effects1:

  • PT prolongation was significantly reversed by 22%-77% at all aPCC concentrations in plasma spiked with XARELTO 200-1000 ng/mL, and a ceiling effect of reversal occurred at 0.7 U/mL aPCC.
  • Clotting time prolongation was partially reversed, and only significantly with XARELTO 1656 ng/mL.
  • XARELTO-induced lag time prolongation was reversed by 33%-47%.
  • aPCC 0.4 U/mL significantly reversed ETP inhibition (89%) induced by XARELTO 500 ng/mL.
  • Cmax inhibition was reversed by 6%-56% at all aPCC concentrations.

aPCC, activated prothrombin complex concentrate; Cmax, maximum plasma concentration; ETP, endogenous thrombin potential; PT, prothrombin time.
