Apixaban Validation Study - Additional Study on Fresh Samples
- Conditions
- Anticoagulation With Apixaban
- Interventions
- Device: STA-Apixaban Calibrator & Control
- Registration Number
- NCT03073265
- Lead Sponsor
- Diagnostica Stago
- Brief Summary
The objective is to demonstrate the performances of STA® - Apixaban Calibrator \& STA® - Apixaban Control used in combination with STA® - Liquid Anti-Xa to measure apixaban concentration in plasma. Anti-Xa results will be compared to LCMS (liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry) for validation of the assay. For this study, the anti-Xa assay will be performed on fresh samples only.
The results will be used to complete results obtained previously on frozen samples.
- Detailed Description
About 60 samples from patients on apixaban meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria will be included in this study. Two sites will be in charge of sample recruitment and anti-Xa testing. A third site will be in charge of LCMS testing.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Method comparison between Anti-Xa method and LCMS to measure apixaban in plasma The anti-Xa assay will be tested within 6h after sample collection and LCMS will be performed on frozen samples, at maximum 2 months after collection. Compare results from anti-Xa assay and LCMS to measure apixaban in plasma samples. Regression and difference charts will be used to compare the methods.
