Overview

Betrixaban (INN, codenamed PRT-054,021) is an anticoagulant drug which acts as a direct factor Xa inhibitor.[1] It is potent, orally active and highly selective for factor Xa, being selected from a group of similar compounds for its low hERG affinity.[2] Betrixaban has undergone human clinical trials for prevention of embolism after knee surgery,[3] and prevention of stroke following atrial fibrillation,[4] with promising results.[5]

Chemical Properties

Betrixaban is a potent and specific inhibitor of human factor Xa (fXa) activity which acts by binding to the active site of fXa. Betrixaban as the maleate salt has a molecular weight (MW) of 567.98

Pharmacokinetics

Betrixaban is available for oral administration as an immediate release capsule. It is rapidly absorbed with mean peak concentrations occurring 3-4 hours after oral administration. Oral bioavailability of an 80 mg dose is approximately 34% and protein binding is approximately 60%. The drug exhibits nonlinear kinetics within the expected therapeutic dosing range with greater than proportional increases in plasma concentrations occurring with increased dose; maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve (AUC) at steady-state increased approximately 3-fold when the dose was doubled from 40 mg to 80 mg. Excretion is mostly unchanged through the bile with renal clearance approximately 17% of the absorbed dose. When administered after a high-fat, high-calorie breakfast, Cmax and AUC were reduced by approximately 50% as compared to the fasting state. Betrixaban is not a substrate for major cytochrome P450 enzymes. It is a substrate for efflux proteins including permeability glycoprotein (P-glycoprotein or P-gp). When co-administered with the potent P-gp inhibitor, ketoconazole, betrixaban concentrations were increased approximately 2-fold. Based on population pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis from the Phase II EXPLORE Xa study, a similar effect was observed when betrixaban was given concomitantly with amiodarone. A drug interaction study with the P-gp substrate, digoxin, showed no significant interaction, and one with the inhibitor verapamil suggests that co-administration in fasted state increases both Cmax and exposure to betrixaban.
