Direct factor Xa inhibitors and the risk of cancer and cancer mortality: A Danish population-based cohort study. [PDF]
BackgroundPreclinical animal studies have suggested that myeloid cell-synthesized coagulation factor X dampens antitumor immunity and that rivaroxaban, a direct factor Xa inhibitor, can be used to promote tumor immunity. This study was aimed at assessing

Monitoring anti-factor Xa activity in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension treated with factor Xa inhibitors [PDF]
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been used clinically in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) for secondary prevention after acute venous thromboembolism, although the data are limited.

Application of Molecular Modeling to Development of New Factor Xa Inhibitors [PDF]
In consequence of the key role of factor Xa in the clotting cascade and absence of its activity in the processes that do not affect coagulation, this protein is an attractive target for development of new blood coagulation inhibitors.

Fondaparinux sodium: A selective inhibitor of factor Xa
The pharmacology and mechanism of action of fondaparinux sodium are described. Fondaparinux sodium is the first agent of a new class of anticoagulants that selectively target factor Xa. It has a linear, dose-dependent pharmacokinetic profile, which provides a highly predictable response.
