Multicentric Prospective Validation of a Universal Test to Quantify Apixaban, Rivaroxaban, Danaparoid and Fondaparinux Levels (UniXa)

May 6, 2024 updated by: Nantes University Hospital
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.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
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.
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.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Agreement between measured and estimated levels of each factor-Xa inhibitor
Time Frame: 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.
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Evaluation of the performance of the estimated anticoagulant level method by an inter-laboratory comparison program
Time Frame: 2 years
2 years
Cost comparison (estimated anticoagulant level method versus specific dosage)
Time Frame: 2 years
2 years
