Idraparinux sodium is an anticoagulant medication in development by Sanofi-Aventis.[1]
It has a similar chemical structure and the same method of action as fondaparinux, but with an elimination half-life about five to six times longer (an increase from fondaparinux's 17 hours to approximately 80 hours), which means that the drug should only need to be injected once a week.
As of July 2007[update], it has completed the Phase III clinical trial AMADEUS.
Method of action
Idraparinux selectively blocks coagulation factor Xa.[2]
See Heparin: Mechanism of anticoagulant action for a comparison of the mechanism of heparin, low-molecular-weight heparins, fondaparinux and idraparinux.
