Abstract

Currently available anticoagulants act by interfering in the synthesis of multiple coagulation factors or by specifically inhibiting factors of the common pathway; this affects hemostasis with the consequent increased risk of bleeding. The fear of bleeding continues to limit the indication of anticoagulants. The intrinsic pathway has been shown to play a more important role in the development of thrombosis than in hemostasis. For this reason, in recent years, it has been the focus of study for the development of new anticoagulants with a better safety profile. Several agents that inhibit FXI at different staging, including antisense oligonucleotides, monoclonal antibodies and small molecules have been developed. Abelacimab, a monoclonal antibody, has shown promising efficacy and safety results in phase 2 studies and meta-analyses. It was the first to be evaluated in phase 3 studies, so we will soon have more evidence and a better perspective on its possible clinical application.
