ABSTRACT
Apixaban is an oral, direct factor Xa inhibitor indicated for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disease. This randomized, blinded, 4-way crossover study investigated the potential effect of apixaban on the QTc interval. Forty healthy subjects (39 completers) each received 3 days of the following treatments blinded apixaban 10 mg once daily (QD), 50 mg QD (supratherapeutic), matched apixaban placebo QD, and a single dose of open-label moxifloxacin 400 mg on Day 3, preceded by 2 days of placebo QD. Triplicate electrocardiograms obtained over 24 hours on Days -1 (baseline) and 3 were read by a blinded third party. The mean placebo-adjusted, time-matched, Fridericia-corrected change from baseline QTc (ΔΔQTcF) for apixaban and moxifloxacin was estimated at each time point. The maximum ΔΔQTcF was 1.51 milliseconds (one-sided upper 95% confidence interval [CI] 3.71 milliseconds) after apixaban 50 mg QD, 1.36 milliseconds (one-sided upper 95%CI 3.54 milliseconds) after apixaban 10 mg QD, and 10.21 milliseconds (lower 95%CI 8.07 milliseconds) after moxifloxacin. Concentration-response analysis suggested no evidence of a positive relationship between apixaban concentration and ΔQTcF. Apixaban doses up to 50 mg QD for 3 days were well tolerated and did not prolong the QTc interval in healthy subjects.
