Dabigatran

Dabigatran is a direct thrombin inhibitor used to prevent stroke and blood clots in patients with atrial fibrillation.
It works by blocking the activity of thrombin, a key enzyme in the blood clotting process.
Dabigatran has been shown to be effective in reducing the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, and is approved for use in this indication.
Researchers can use PubCompare.ai's AI-driven platform to optimize Dabigatran research protocols, locate the best protocols from literature, pre-prints, and patents, and enhance reproducibility and accuaracy through intelligent comparissons.

To demonstrate the utility of standardizing disparate data sources into a CDM, we replicated a published observational study protocol and evaluated the quality of a standardized approach and time-to-execution. As an exemplar, we used the Mini-Sentinel analysis of the comparative effectiveness of rivaroxaban versus warfarin on various outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation.30 We developed a standardized analytic routine that replicated the cohort definitions within the protocol and applied the analytic program across all 6 databases to compare the impact of the inclusion criteria on the proportion of patients qualifying for the study.
Specifically, we identified all new users of each target drug (warfarin and rivaroxaban) who satisfied the following 7 criteria of the original study: (1) had at least 183 days of nonexposure before the first target drug exposure; (2) had at least 1 atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter diagnosis code within the 183-day window prior to first exposure; (3) did not have any prior diagnosis or procedure codes indicative of long-term dialysis; (4) did not have any prior diagnosis or procedure codes indicative of kidney transplant; (5) did not have any prior diagnosis or procedure code indicative of mitral stenosis or mechanical heart valve; (6) did not have any prior procedure code indicative of joint replacement or arthroplasty surgery; and (7) did not have prior use of any anticoagulant (warfarin, rivaroxaban, dabigatran, or apixaban). For each target drug, we created 2 cohorts: new users of the drug (defined by satisfying criteria No. 1), and the subset of those new users of the drug who satisfied the remaining 6 criteria. For each cohort, we produced a standardized descriptive summary of the population, including demographics (gender and age distribution), comorbidities (prevalence of conditions in time window prior to cohort entry), concomitant medications (prevalence of drug exposure in time window prior to cohort entry), and service utilization (prevalence of procedures in time window prior to cohort entry). We measured the execution time for the standardized analytic routine when applied to each target drug across all 6 databases. Analyses were conducted on a Microsoft Server 2008 (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, Washington) with an AMD Opteron 6172 (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc, Sunnyvale, California), 2.10 GHz, 2 processors, 24-core CPU, and 256 GB of RAM. Each CDM was stored in a separate database within an instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, Washington).
Appendix 1 contains the standard concepts and corresponding source codes that were used to define each of the core concepts required within the prespecified protocol.

Patients were enrolled at 63 centers in North America and Europe. Patients were eligible if they were at least 18 years of age, presented with acute major bleeding, and had received within 18 hours one of the following: apixaban, rivaroxaban, or edoxaban at any dose or enoxaparin at a dose of at least 1 mg per kilogram of body weight per day. Acute major bleeding was defined as bleeding having one or more of the following features: potentially life-threatening bleeding with signs or symptoms of hemodynamic compromise (e.g., severe hypotension, poor skin perfusion, mental confusion, or low cardiac output that could not otherwise be explained); bleeding associated with a decrease in the hemoglobin level of at least 2 g per deciliter (or a hemoglobin level of ≤8 g per deciliter if no baseline hemoglobin level was available); or bleeding in a critical area or organ (e.g., retroperitoneal, intraarticular, pericardial, epidural, or intracranial bleeding or intramuscular bleeding with compartment syndrome). Written informed consent was obtained from all the patients, whether directly from the patient, by proxy consent from a legally authorized representative, or by emergency consent (as described in the Supplementary Appendix, available at NEJM.org).
Patients were enrolled from April 2015 through May 2018. From July 2016 through August 2017, only patients with intracranial hemorrhage were enrolled to enrich the study with these patients. After August 2017, patients with all types of bleeding except visible, musculoskeletal, or intraarticular bleeding were enrolled. Substantive amendments to the enrollment criteria during the trial are presented in the Supplementary Appendix.
Key exclusion criteria were planned surgery within 12 hours after andexanet treatment (with the exception of minimally invasive operations or procedures); intracranial hemorrhage in a patient with a score of less than 7 on the Glasgow Coma Scale (scores range from 15 [normal] to 3 [deep coma]) or an estimated hematoma volume of more than 60 cc; expected survival of less than 1 month; the occurrence of a thrombotic event within 2 weeks before enrollment; or use of any of the following agents within the previous 7 days: vitamin K antagonist, dabigatran, prothrombin complex concentrate, recombinant factor VIIa, whole blood, or plasma.

GLORIA-AF was an international, multi-center, non-interventional registry program, based on prospectively collected data for patients with newly diagnosed AF. Participating centers were selected to achieve a country-specific balance of health care settings. The three-phased design of the GLORIA-AF Registry Program has previously been published (Fig. 1) [12 (link)]. To reduce confounding, Phase III of the program only started once relevant baseline characteristics of patients initiating dabigatran and VKA in Phase II were sufficiently similar to allow for comprehensive comparative analysis, as determined by propensity score (PS) methodology. All patients in GLORIA-AF were managed according to local clinical practice and treatment decisions were solely at the discretion of the treating physician. Patients included in Phase III were followed for 3 years, regardless of prescribed antithrombotic therapy.

GLORIA-AF was conducted in accordance with the principles of Good Clinical Practice and the Declaration of Helsinki and Good Epidemiological Practice and Good Pharmacoepidemiology Practices, and the protocol was approved by the European Medicines Agency and institutional review boards at each participating site. Patients provided written informed consent. An independent, academic steering committee oversaw the design, execution, and study conduct, and was responsible for manuscript development. Extensive measures were undertaken to ensure accurate and complete reporting of outcomes and minimize loss to follow-up. Clinical data and site characteristics were captured using a web-based system over a secure network to ensure confidentiality and data integrity. The Data Sharing Statement is included in the Supplementary Information.

One-to-one propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted between NOACs and warfarin (apixaban versus warfarin, dabigatran versus warfarin, and rivaroxaban versus warfarin) and between the NOACs (apixaban versus dabigatran, apixaban versus rivaroxaban, and dabigatran versus rivaroxaban). Patients were matched 1:1 in each data set based on the propensity scores generated by logistic regression based on demographics, Charlson Comorbidity Index score,14 (link) baseline bleeding and stroke/SE history, comorbidities, and baseline comedications (complete list of covariates in Table II in the online-only Data Supplement). Nearest neighbor matching method without replacement with a caliper of 0.01 was used to match the patients.15 (link) The balance of covariates was checked based on standardized differences with a threshold of 10%.16 (link) Study patients from the 5 datasets were pooled for analysis after ensuring cohorts were balanced.
After PSM, the rate of stroke/SE and MB in each PSM cohort was evaluated with Cox proportional hazard models with robust sandwich estimates.15 (link) OAC treatment was included as the independent variable, and no other covariates were included in the model because the cohorts were balanced.

Patients were identified from queries of electronic medical records using International Classification of Disease 9th or 10th edition (ICD-9/10) and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes for AF, VTE, and PCI. Electronic discharge records of hospitalized patients with ICD-10 codes in “any” diagnostic position for AF and/or VTE and CPT codes for PCI were manually reviewed to verify proper categorization of those receiving anticoagulation therapy to prevent stroke for AF or treatment of VTE who underwent PCI with placement of one or more drug-eluting stents. Adult patients (age 18 + years) who were 12 months (± 1 month) status post PCI and who were concurrently receiving oral anticoagulant (OAC) therapy with warfarin, apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, or rivaroxaban were considered for study inclusion. Patients initiating OAC therapy either before or after PCI were included providing that 12-months (± 1 month) had elapsed since the index PCI. Patients with mechanical heart valve prostheses and placement of bare metal stents during index PCI were excluded as were those with insufficient information in their medical record to allow categorization of antithrombotic pathways or clinical outcomes. An overview of the study design is provided in the Fig. 1. Baseline characteristics collected administratively or during manual medical record reviews included age, sex, race, ethnicity, comorbid diseases, reason for PCI (ACS/MI or SIHD), oral anticoagulant type, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and CHA2DS2-VASc scores (patients with AF).

More about "Dabigatran"

Dabigatran is a direct-acting oral anticoagulant (DOAC) that functions as a potent and selective inhibitor of thrombin, a critical enzyme in the blood coagulation cascade.
This medication is primarily utilized to prevent stroke and systemic embolism in patients diagnosed with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, a common heart rhythm disorder.
Thrombin plays a pivotal role in the formation of blood clots, as it catalyzes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, the key structural component of a thrombus.
By directly inhibiting thrombin's enzymatic activity, dabigatran effectively disrupts this clotting process, reducing the risk of potentially life-threatening thromboembolic events.
