D21-2393 subjects received a single-oral-dose of edoxaban 30-90 mg in each study occasion under fasting condition. Serial blood samples were collected to measure the plasma concentrations of edoxaban and its major active metabolite D21-2393. Meanwhile, PT, INR, aPTT were measured pre- and post-dose.
Edoxaban impurity 4, an impurity of Edoxaban (DU-176), is a selective, potent, and orally active inhibitor of factor Xa (FXa), exhibiting Kis of 0.561 nM for free FXa and 2.98 nM for prothrombinase. As an anticoagulant agent, Edoxaban is utilized for stroke prevention[1][2].
