![]() The first study found that andexanet alfa rapidly reduced anti-Xa activity by 92%-94% in healthy volunteers taking apixaban or rivaroxaban. The approval for andexanet alfa is supported by data from two phase 3 studies (ANNEXA-A, ANNEXA-R) and preliminary data from the phase 3b/4 ANNEXA-4 trial. Andexanet alfa is administered via two different dosing regimens, standard and high dose, based on the specific FXa inhibitor, dose, and time since the patient's last dose of FXa inhibitor. It binds to direct and indirect anti-Xa oral anticoagulants with high specificity to reverse their inhibitory effects and restore the activity of FXa. ![]() Andexanet alfa, a recombinant modified human "decoy" factor Xa (FXa) protein, is the first and only available antidote approved by the Food and Drug Administration to manage life-threatening or uncontrolled bleeding associated with the anti-Xa agents.
