Abstract
Purpose of review: This review provides an overview of the factor XI (FXI) inhibitor hypothesis for the development of novel anticoagulants which may be safer to those currently used in clinical practice and describes preliminary clinical data from phase 2 dose-ranging studies of patients with atrial fibrillation.
Recent findings: Recent data from phase 2 dose ranging studies demonstrate substantial reductions in bleeding with FXI pathway inhibition compared with currently approved anticoagulants. However, larger studies are necessary to demonstrate efficacy of FXI inhibition for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. FXI pathway inhibition holds great promise for revolutionizing the landscape of anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation, primarily by reducing bleeding risk; however, further data are necessary to demonstrate efficacy.
期刊介绍：
The aim of this journal is to provide timely perspectives from experts on current advances in cardiovascular medicine. We also seek to provide reviews that highlight the most important recently published papers selected from the wealth of available cardiovascular literature.
We accomplish this aim by appointing key authorities in major subject areas across the discipline. Section editors select topics to be reviewed by leading experts who emphasize recent developments and highlight important papers published over the past year. An Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field.
