Our Plans Today……
1. Pharmacology / Epidemiology of NOACs
in advanced CKD/dialysis (GFR<30
cc/min)
2. Summary of evidence for NOACs in CKD
3. AF: Anticoagulate CKD/ESRD patients?
4. Discontinuation and reversal of NOACs in
CKD/dialysis

Non-Vitamin K Anticoagulants
• New class of oral anticoagulants (NOACs)
– First FDA approved October 2010 (Dabigatran)
• Mechanism of action:
– Direct Xa inhibitor
– Thrombin inhibitor
• Phase III studies in general population show
– Equivalent or better than Warfarin (stroke
prevention and bleeding)

Non-Vitamin K Anticoagulants
• All dependent on kidney for elimination
• All Phase III trials excluded eGFR <25-30
• Originally contraindicated if eGFR <30
– AHA guidelines recommend warfarin if
eGFR<30

Renal pharmacokinetics of
Anticoagulants• Uremia
– Affects many organs
– Alters PK of many drugs
• Renal excretion – Filtration and/or secretion
• Disease affects glomerular and/or tubular function
• Drug clearance decreases
• T1/2 increases

Diversion Down History Lane
• Warfarin
– Rat poison 1948
– Anticoagulant 1954
– Studies suggest lower doses in CKD
• eGFR > 60: 4.8 mg/day
• eGFR 30-59: 4.3 mg/day
• eGFR < 30: 3.9 mg/day
– Generally more difficult to manage in CKD*

If Difficult, Why Not ASA?
• In “Normals”
• Warfarin: Less strokes and probably not
more dangerous compared to ASA

Conclusions:
• NOACs
– Are equal or better (vs. warfarin) at preventing
stroke and bleeding in general AF population
– All NOACs depend on kidney for elimination
– No good data for use if eGFR < 30 ml/min
• But, FDA label gives recommendations for
dosing down to eGFR of 15 ml/min (and
for Abixaban for eGFR < 15 ml/min)

Anticoagulation / Decreased
eGFR• Anticoagulation when eGFR < 30?*
– Warfarin increases risk of major bleeding by
20% or more
– Efficacy of stroke prevention likely reduced in
patients with eGFR < 30
– Uremic platelet dysfunction
– Heparin during dialysis
– “Competing risks” – shortened life expectancy

Anticoagulation / Decreased
eGFR• Anticoagulation when eGFR < 30
– No trials
• Only data is observational
• Studies show “confounding by indication”
meaning those in treatment arm with
reason to take the medication are
compared to those not on the drug

CKD Patient – NOACs vs
Warfarin• High risk population*
– Increased incidence of stroke
– Increased incidence of bleeding
– Increased prevalence of atrial fibrillation
• NOACs vs Warfarin
– Less bleeding / improved safety profile (?)
– Better stroke reduction

CKD Patient – NOACs vs
Warfarin• Phase III trials
– No Warfarin efficacy proven if eGFR < 30
• But FDA labels provide dosing
recommendations to eGFR = 15 and lower
– Based mostly on pharmacokinetic data
– PK studies poor predictor of outcomes

CKD Patient – NOACs vs
Warfarin• NOACs as “first line” therapy:
– Calciphylaxis
– Warfarin skin necrosis
– Protein C or S deficiency
• Which NOAC?
– Apixaban 2.5 mg BID per label
– Check renal function frequently (every 2 to 4
months) if eGFR > 30

– 18% if baseline GFR 45 – 60
– 25% if baseline GFR is 30 – 45

CKD Patient – NOACs vs
Warfarin • Recommendation close monitoring of
renal function in CKD patient on NOACs:
– Assess on a GFR/10 = months between lab
testing as a guideline
• If eGFR = 40 test every 4 months
• If eGFR = 30 test every 3 months

Non-Urgent Pre-op Hold
NOACs• Generally wait 3 – 4 half-lives for drug to
be cleared:

Urgent Reversal of Dabigatran
• 4 hour HD removes ~ 50% Dabigatran
• DDAVP
• Idarucizumab
– Monoclonal antibody binds Dabigatran
– Normalizes Thrombin Time in 30 minutes
– 6% risk of thrombotic event

Urgent Reversal Xa Inhibitors
• 4 Factor Prothrombin Complex
Concentrate (4F-PCC)
– Concentrated Factor II, VII, IX and X
• Mechanism and issues:
– “Floods” system with factors quickly
– Overwhelms Xa inhibition
– Much less volume than FFP
– Normalizes coag labs but no outcome data

Urgent Reversal Xa Inhibitors
• 1.4% risk of thrombotic complication

NOACs in AKI
• GFR formulas not accurate in AKI
• Severe AKI associated with decreased
clearance of NOAC and potential
bioaccumulation / bleeding
• Consider holding NOACs in patient with
severe AKI
• Consider reversal agents if patient is
bleeding

Conclusions: Advanced CKD
and NOACs• NOAC use is substantial and increasing
• No trial data supporting this in CKD
• AHA and European Hearth Rhythm
Association guidelines recommend
warfarin
• NOAC RCTs are needed for this
vulnerable population
