UniXa: Multicentric Prospective Validation of a Universal Test to Quantify Apixaban, Rivaroxaban, Danaparoid and Fondaparinux Levels
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Despite their usefulness in perioperative and acute care settings, factor-Xa inhibitors-specific assays are scarcely available, contrary to heparin anti-Xa assay. The investigators aimed at assessing whether the widely used heparin anti-Xa assay can quantify the apixaban, rivaroxaban, fondaparinux and danaparoid levels.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Derivation cohort In the derivation cohort, we will determined the conversion factor linking apixaban, rivaroxaban, fondaparinux, or danaparoid measured level, on the one hand, and heparin anti-Xa activity, on the other hand. |
Diagnostic Test: Estimated anticoagulant level (conversion factor x anti-Xa activity)
Estimated anticoagulant level (conversion factor x anti-Xa activity)
|
Validation cohort In the validation cohort, for each tested anticoagulant, we will used the conversion factor determined in the derivation cohort to infer the estimated level of anticoagulant from heparin anti-Xa activity: estimated anticoagulant level = conversion factor for this anticoagulant × heparin anti-Xa activity The agreement between measured and estimated levels of each factor-Xa inhibitor will be assessed. |

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Agreement between measured and estimated levels of each factor-Xa inhibitor [2 years]
An estimated anticoagulant level between 80 and 120% of the value obtained by the reference method ("specific assay") will be deemed clinically acceptable, i.e. the patient's management would have been the same.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Evaluation of the performance of the estimated anticoagulant level method by an inter-laboratory comparison program [2 years]
- Cost comparison (estimated anticoagulant level method versus specific dosage) [2 years]
