Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Desmoteplase
AbstractDesmoteplase is a bat (Desmodus rotundus) saliva-derived fibrinolytic enzyme resembling a urokinase and tissue plasminogen activator. It is highly dependent on fibrin and has some neuroprotective attributes. Intravenous administration of desmoteplase is safe and well tolerated in healthy subjects. Plasma fibrinolytic activity is linearly related to its blood concentration, its terminal elimination half-life ranges from 3.8 to 4.92 h (50 vs. 90 μg/kg dose). Administration of desmoteplase leads to transitory derangement of fibrinogen, D-dimer, alpha2-antiplasmin, and plasmin and antiplasmin complex which normaliz...

Apixaban and rivaroxaban use for atrial fibrillation in patients with obesity and BMI ≥50 kg/m2
ConclusionsThis study demonstrated that apixaban and rivaroxaban in patients with a BMI ≥50 kg/m2 for treatment of NVAF may be safe and effective at preventing thromboembolic events and had no increased risk of bleeding. Although, findings should be interpreted with caution and confirmed with additional studies. This study contributes to the growing body of evidence that direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) may be effective and safe to use for the treatment of NVAF in patients with BMI ≥50 kg/m2.

Fatal Adverse Events of Dabigatran Combined With Aspirin in Elderly Patients: An Analysis Using Data From VigiBase
Conclusion: The fatal adverse events associated with the combined use of dabigatran and aspirin in elderly patients were mainly serious bleeding events, which often occurred within 1 month. Most of these cases had medication errors and most of the patients had multiple diseases, medications, or other conditions at the same time that increase the risk of bleeding. It is suggested that prescription of dabigatran and aspirin in elderly patients should go along with alertness for medication errors, care for correct dose or control of other bleeding risk factors, and the combined medication time should be as short as possible ...

Impact of the ABCD-GENE Score on Clopidogrel Clinical Effectiveness after PCI: A Multi-site, Real-world Investigation
The objective of this study was to validate the ability of ABCD-GENE score to predict risk for atherothrombotic events in a diverse, real-world population of clopidogrel-treated PCI patients who received clinical CYP2C19 genotyping to guide antiplatelet therapy. A total of 2341 adult patients who underwent PCI, were genotyped for CYP2C19, and received treatment with clopidogrel across four institutions were included (mean age 64±12 years, 35% female, 20% Black). The primary outcome was major atherothrombotic events, defined as the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, stent thrombosis, or r...

Efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants in the treatment of left ventricular thrombus after acute anterior myocardial infarction in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention
CONCLUSIONS: DOACs appears to be a suitable alternative to warfarin for the management of LVT post STEMI, especially in patients who are intolerant to warfarin.PMID:36200193 | DOI:10.2174/1570161120666221003104821

In vitro study about prevention of vascular reocclusion by low intensity ultrasonic irradiation
Drug Discov Ther. 2022 Oct 9. doi: 10.5582/ddt.2022.01064. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFor the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, the current standard of care is thrombolysis by the administration of intravenous (IV) recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA). Although this approach is proven to be effective, reocclusion within 24 hours occurs in about 20% of patients who receive recanalization by rt-PA. In addition, the administration of anticoagulants within 24 hours after IV rt-PA increases the risk of intracranial hemorrhage; therefore, treatment with anticoagulants is contraindicated in this population. ...
