Asundexian is a Factor XIa inhibitor developed by Bayer to prevent stroke. [1]
Asundexian efficacy and safety in patients have been evaluated in two clinical trial programs: phase IIb PACIFIC and phase III OCEANIC. [2] In the phase IIb PACIFIC clinical trial programs, asundexian consistently showed no difference in bleeding rate compared with placebo [3] [4] and reduced the risk of bleeding compared with apixaban. [5] All three trials in the programs were not powered to show efficacy of asundexian. [2] However, a phase III trial, OCEANIC-AF, demonstrated a hazard ratio of 3.8 for stroke or systemic embolism with asundexian vs apixaban, so it was stopped due to a "lack of efficacy." The remaining active study OCEANIC-STROKE was recommended to continue as planned. Bayer is reevaluating the design of the OCEANIC-AFINA based on the findings of the OCEANIC trial. [6]
