Popis: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are increasingly used for the treatment of thrombosis. While inhibitors of factor IIa and factor Xa have shown effectiveness, the risk of bleeding remains a significant concern. Recently, direct factor XIa inhibitors—including asundexian and milvexian—have emerged as potential anticoagulation therapies, based on clinical observations that patients with factor XIa deficiencies seldom present with spontaneous bleeding tendencies. The interferences associated with DOACs in routine and specialised coagulation assays are well-described; however, the interferences associated with emerging FXIa inhibitors are largely uncharacterised. Here, we briefly report the impact of asundexian and milvexian in routine coagulation assays using in vitro plasma-based systems. Asundexian and milvexian induce concentration-dependent prolongations in APTT-based assays with curvilinear regressions, which may be suitable for the measurement of pharmacodynamic effects at peak levels ex vivo. We also report differential sensitivities of APTT-based assays—particularly at higher FXIa inhibitor concentrations—highlighting the clinical need for an extensive evaluation of interferences associated with FXIa inhibitors in coagulation assays.
