Rivaroxaban is an orally active, active site-targeting, highly potent and selective factor Xa (FXa) inhibitor (IC50 = 0.7 nM; no activity against thrombin, trypsin, plasmin, FVIIa, FIXa, FXIa, urokinase, or activated protein C up to 20 μM) with good anticoagulant activity in vitro (dose for doubling fibrin formation time = 230/300 nM in human/rat plasma) and antithrombotic efficacy in vivo (ED50 = 1 mg/kg i.v. or 5 mg/kg p.o. by rat arteriovenous shunt model).
Sunitinib (SUN) is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved in 2006 as a first-line treatment for metastatic renal cell cancer. However, weak selectivity to kinase receptors and cardiotoxicity have limited the use of sunitinib. Rivaroxaban (RIVA) is a Factor Xa
In vitro inhibition of thrombin generation, after tissue factor pathway activation, by the oral, direct factor Xa inhibitor rivaroxaban.

A reduced rate of myocardial infarction has been reported in patients with atrial fibrillation treated with FXa (factor Xa) inhibitors including rivaroxaban compared with vitamin K antagonists. At the same time, low-dose rivaroxaban has been shown to reduce mortality and

ABC transporters, such as P-gp and BCRP, are involved in rivaroxaban pharmacokinetics and can lead to drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Investigations of the victim role for rivaroxaban and transporter-mediated DDI are commonly performed using in vitro models. However, interpretation of rivaroxaban

Current anticoagulant therapies for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders have many drawbacks: vitamin K antagonists interact with food and drugs and require frequent laboratory monitoring, and heparins require parenteral administration. Oral rivaroxaban (BAY 597939) is a new, highly
