| Description | Dabigatran etexilate (Pradaxa, BIBR 1048, Boehringer Ingelheim) is the prodrug of dabigatran (originally known as BIBR 953), a potent, nonpeptidic small molecule that specifically and reversibly inhibits both free and clot-bound thrombin by binding to the active site of the thrombin molecule. |
| Indications and Usage | Dabigatran is the newest generation of oral anticoagulant drugs – direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs), belonging to non-peptide thrombin inhibitors and instead specifically and selectively blocks the thrombin activity (free or bound) to prevent coagulation. Dabigatran targets the preventative and clinical treatment needs of acute and chronic thromboembolic disease. |
| Mechanisms of Action | It achieves anticoagulant effects through specific and selective inhibition of blood enzymes (free or bound). After oral ingestion and absorption through the digestive system, Dabigatran turns into Dabiga groups that have the direct anticoagulant abilities. By binding to thrombin in fibrin specific binding sites, Dabigatran stops fibrinogen from cleaving into fibrin, thus interrupting the blood clotting network and consequently thrombosis. Dabiga groups can also dissociate from the fibrin-thrombin coagulate and have an anticoagulating effect. Different from vitamin K antagonists, which affect different coagulants, Dabigatran can provide effective, predictable and stable anticoagulant effects. It will also have minimal reactions to other drugs or food, and does not require frequent monitoring or dosage adjustment. |
| Clinical Research | Compared to the control group treated with Warfarin, Dabigatran can significantly decrease the risk of stroke and embolic disease (including hemorrhagic stroke), greatly reduce the occurrence of bleeding (including fatal bleeding and intracranial hemorrhage), and greatly lower vascular mortality rate. Dabigatran provides effective and stable anticoagulant effects and does not require constant monitoring of anticoagulant functions or dosage adjustments. |
| Warnings and Precautions | 1. Dabigatran is not to be used by patients with severe kidney damage (CrCl<30ml/min). 2. Patients with high bleeding risk should also not use Dabigatran. 3. Patients must be tested and monitored for signs of lack of bleeding or anemia; if there is severe bleeding, cease use of Dabigatran and identify the bleeding area. 4. Dabigatran is not suitable for patients with significant manifestations of rheumatic valvar heart disease or patients with artificial heart valves. |
| Description | Dabigatran etexilate is an orally administered pro-drug of dabigatran,which is a direct inhibitor of thrombin and a potent anticoagulant. The serine protease thrombin is the final mediator in the coagulation cascadethat leads to the production of fibrin, the main protein component ofblood clots. Thrombin is also a potent activator of platelets. Consequently, thrombin inhibitors have found utility as anticoagulants intreating arterial and venous thrombosis. Warfarin, although orally available, has anarrow therapeutic index and requires frequent monitoring and dosageadjustment. Low-molecular-weight heparins provide better safety profileand less inter-patient variability; however, these agents are only availablefor parenteral administration. Direct thrombin inhibitors (DTIs) are anew class of anticoagulants that act by directly binding to thrombin at itscatalytic or fibrinogen-binding sites, or both. Unlike the heparins, DTIs do not require the activation of secondary factors such as antithrombin to derive their activity, which makes their action more predictable. In addition, their ability to inhibit both free and clot-bound thrombin predisposes them for enhanced anticoagulation effect. |
| Originator | Boehringer Ingelheim (Germany) |
| Uses | Dabigatran Etexilate is an oral anticoagulant and direct thrombin inhibitor. |
| Uses | BIBR-1048 (Dabigatran) is an anticoagulant from the class of the direct thrombin inhibitors. It is being studied for various clinical indications and in many cases it offers an alternative to warfarin as the preferred orally administered blood thinner sin |
| Definition | ChEBI: An aromatic amide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 2-{[(4-{N'-[(hexyloxy)carbonyl]carbamimidoyl}phenyl)amino]methyl}-1-methyl-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid with the secondary amino group of thyl N-pyridin-2-yl-beta-alaninate. A prodrug for dabigatran, a thrombin inhibitor and anticoagulant which is used for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism. |
| Brand name | Pradaxa |
| Synthesis | The chemical synthesis ofdabigatran etexilate starts with the acylation of ethyl 3-(2-pyridylamino)propionatewith 4-(methylamino)-3-nitrobenzoyl chloride to producethe corresponding amide. Subsequent reduction of the nitro group bycatalytic hydrogenation, and cyclization of the resultant phenylenediaminewith N-(4-cyanophenyl)glycine leads to a benzimidazole intermediate.The cyano group is then transformed into an amidine byemploying the Pinner reaction. Finally, acylation of the amidino groupwith hexyl chloroformate gives rise to dabigatran etexilate. |
| in vitro | dabigatran showed anticoagulant effects in a concentration-dependent manner. it doubled the activated partrial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time and ecarin clotting in human ppp. [1] |
| Drug interactions | Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs Analgesics: possible increased risk of bleeding with NSAID’s; increased risk of haemorrhage with ketorolac or IV diclofenac - avoid. Anti-arrhythmics: concentration increased by amiodarone, reduce dose of dabigatran; concentration increased by dronedarone - avoid. Antibacterials: concentration reduced by rifampicin - avoid; possibly increased risk of bleeding with clarithromycin. Anticoagulants: increased risk of haemorrhage with other anticoagulants - avoid. Antidepressants: possible increased risk of bleeding with SSRIs; concentration possibly reduced by St John’s wort - avoid. Antifungals: concentration increased by ketoconazole and possibly itraconazole - avoid Ciclosporin: concentration possibly increased by ciclosporin - avoid. Sulfinpyrazone: possible increased risk of bleeding. Tacolimus: concentration possibly increased by tacrolimus - avoid. Ticagrelor: concentration of dabigatran increased. Verapamil: reduce dose of dabigatran to 150 mg daily, 75 mg in GFR=30-50mL/min. |
| Metabolism | Dabigatran etexilate is a prodrug which does not exhibit any pharmacological activity. After oral administration, dabigatran etexilate is rapidly absorbed and converted to dabigatran by esterase-catalysed hydrolysis in plasma and in the liver. Dabigatran is a potent, competitive, reversible direct thrombin inhibitor and is the main active principle in plasma. Mainly excreted in the urine (85%) and 6% via the faeces. |
