==Overview==
<!--Patient Counseling Information-->
'''Apixaban''' (manufacturer's designation BMS-562247-01) is a compound being investigated as an [[anticoagulant]]. It acts by inhibiting coagulation [[factor X]]a. It is presently undergoing phase III trials in the prevention of [[venous thromboembolism]], together with a number of related competing compounds, such as [[rivaroxaban]].<ref>{{cite journal |author=Turpie AG |title=Oral, direct factor Xa inhibitors in development for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic diseases |journal=Arterioscler. Thromb. Vasc. Biol. |volume=27 |issue=6 |pages=1238-47 |year=2007 |pmid=17379841 |doi=10.1161/ATVBAHA.107.139402}}</ref> It is being marketed in a joint venture by Pfizer and Bristol-Myers-Squibb.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://newsroom.bms.com/index.php?s=press_releases&item=254 |title=Bristol-Myers Squibb News Release 26 April 2007 |accessdate=2007-09-15 |format= |work=}}</ref>


==Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) Studies==
|fdaPatientInfo=
===APPRAISE-1 Trial===
Results of the Dose Ranging Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Apixaban in Patients with a Recent Acute Coronary Syndrome (APPRAISE-1) demonstrate that administration of the factor Xa inhibitor [[Apixaban]] on top of current [[antiplatelet therapy]] for 6 months post-acute coronary syndrome (ACS) leads to increased bleeding in a dose-dependent fashion and reduced [[ischemic]] events. The data were presented by Dr. John H. Alexander and Dr. Lars Wallentin at the European Society of Cardiology Congress 2008 Hot Line III session. 


The goal of this trial was 1) to evaluate the effect on [[bleeding]] of 4 doses of Apixaban vs. [[placebo]] given over 26 weeks in patients with a recent [[ACS]] receiving current evidence based care ([[Aspirin]] ≤165 mg/d, [[Clopidogrel]] per MD discretion) and 2) to determine the optimal dose of Apixaban for further investigation. Major bleeding was defined as bleeding with a fall in [[hemoglobin]] of ≥2 g/dl, or bleeding with [[transfusion]] of ≥2 units of PRBC or whole [[blood]], or bleeding that occurs in a critical location (i.e. [[brain]] or [[spine]]), or bleeding that causes death.
There is limited information regarding <i>Patient Counseling Information</i> of {{PAGENAME}} in the drug label.


The APPRAISE-1 trial was a [[clinical trial|phase 2]], [[randomized]], double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel arm study that enrolled 1,715 patients from Europe (n=1,305) and North America (n=410). Phase A of the study randomized 547 patients to 10 mg Apixaban daily (Apixaban 10 mg QD, n=184), 2.5 mg Apixaban twice daily (Apixaban 2.5 mg BID, n=179), and placebo (n=184). In phase B, 1168 patients were randomized to Apixaban 10 mg QD (n=134), Apixaban 2.5 mg BID (n=138), placebo (n=427), Apixaban 10 mg BID (n=248), and Apixaban 20 mg QD (n=221). All patients received the study drug for 6 months. The latter two groups (10 mg BID and 20 mg QD, n=469) were discontinued prematurely from the study due to excess bleeding.
<!--Precautions with Alcohol-->


The inclusion criteria selected patients age 18-90 years with recent [[ACS]] (≤7 days) and at least one additional risk factor such as age ≥65 years, [[diabetes mellitus]], or prior [[MI]] within the past 12 months. The primary safety endpoint was International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) major or clinically relevant non-major (CRNM) bleeding. The secondary efficacy endpoint included cardiovascular (CV) death, [[MI]], severe recurrent [[ischemia]], or [[ischemic stroke]]. The duration of follow-up was a mean of 6 months.
|alcohol=


Compared to [[placebo]], [[Apixaban]] treatment was associated with increased [[bleeding]] among patients with a recent [[ACS]] according to the ISTH major or CRNM and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) [[bleeding]] definitions. According to the ISTH major or CRNM definition, [[bleeding]] occurred in 7.9% of patients receiving [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD (n=315), 5.7% in the [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID arm (n=315) and 3.0% in the [[placebo]] group (n=599). HR: 2.45, 95% CI: 1.31 to 4.61, p = 0.005 for [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD vs. [[placebo]] and HR: 1.78, 95% CI: 0.91 to 3.48, p = 0.09 for [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID vs. [[placebo]]. 1.0%, 0.0%, 0.3% of patients being administered [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD (n=315), [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID (n=315) and [[placebo]] (n=599), respectively, experienced major [[bleeding]] by the TIMI definition.  
* Alcohol-{{PAGENAME}} interaction has not been established. Talk to your doctor about the effects of taking alcohol with this medication.


When [[bleeding]] was stratified by [[Clopidogrel]] status, the study drug was still associated with increased [[bleeding]]. Patients taking [[Clopidogrel]]: 9.1% [[bleeding]] for [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD (n=241), 7.0% for [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID (n=230), 3.1% for [[placebo]] (n=453); No [[Clopidogrel]]: 4.1%, 2.4%, 2.7% [[bleeding]] for [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD (n=74), [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID (n=85) and [[placebo]] (n=146) respectively.
<!--Brand Names-->


The secondary endpoints of CV death, [[MI]], severe recurrent [[ischemia]], or [[ischemic stroke]] were most prevalent in the [[placebo]] group (6.0%, 7.6%, and 8.7% in the [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD n=318, [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID n=317 and [[placebo]] groups n=611, respectively, HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.35 to 1.04, p = 0.07 for [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD vs. [[placebo]] and HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.44 to 1.19, p = 0.21 for [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID vs. [[placebo]]) while CV death alone occurred most frequently in the [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID group (1.3% [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD n = 318, 3.5% [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID n = 317, 1.8% [[placebo]] n = 611).
|brandNames=


When secondary endpoints were stratified by [[Clopidogrel]] status, [[placebo]] was associated with the most [[ischemic]] events. Patients taking [[Clopidogrel]]: 4.9% for [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD (n=243), 5.6% for [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID (n=232), 6.5 % for [[placebo]] (n=462); No [[Clopidogrel]]: 9.3%, 12.9%, 15.4% for [[Apixaban]] 10 mg QD (n=75), [[Apixaban]] 2.5 mg BID (n=85) and [[placebo]] (n=149) respectively.
* ®<ref>{{Cite web | title = | url = }}</ref>


APPRAISE-1 represents the first trial to combine [[anticoagulation]] with a direct factor Xa inhibitor in the treatment of patients with a recent [[ACS]] already receiving [[antiplatelet therapy]]. Overall, the results suggest that administration of [[Apixaban]] on top of current [[antiplatelet therapy]] for 6 months post-[[ACS]] leads to increased [[bleeding]] in a dose-dependent fashion and reduced [[ischemic]] events. Similar outcomes were found among patients taking [[Aspirin]] or [[Aspirin]] + [[Clopidogrel]].
