Fondaparinux is a pentasaccharide inhibitor of Factor Xa, the enzyme that activates prothrombin in the coagulation cascade (IC50s = 40, 45, and 36 nM for human, rabbit, and rat enzymes, respectively, in vitro).

Background:

Fondaparinux sodium is an antithrombin-dependent factor Xa inhibitor.

Fondaparinux sodium is the first agent of a new class of anticoagulants that selectively target factor Xa. For Fondaparinux, its IC50 values (anti-Xa IU/ml) are 0.59±0.05 for activated monocytes (ac-M) and 0.17±0.03 for monocyte-derived microparticles (MMPs)[2].

Fondaparinux sodium has a linear, dose-dependent pharmacokinetic profile, which provides a highly predictable response. Fondaparinux sodium is 100% bioavailable, has a rapid onset of action, and has a half-life of 14 to 16 hours, allowing for sustained antithrombotic activity over a 24-hour period. The drug does not affect prothrombin time or activated partial thromboplastin time, nor does it affect platelet function or aggregation[1].
