Comment: Otamixaban (FXV673) is an anticoagulant that was originally reported by Aventis Pharmaceuticals (Sanofi) [1]. It is a potent and selective direct inhibitor of coagulation factor Xa that is delivered intravenously. The INN record stipulates the (2R,3R) configuration. Virtual docking studies suggest that otamixaban may bind to the serine protease TMPRSS2 [2-3], which is linked to host cell entry by a number of viruses, in particular influenza viruses and respiratory viruses such as SARS-CoV-2. Inhibition of TMPRSS2 is being examined for antiviral activity. The TMPRSS2 inhibitory activity of otamixaban is reported in [2].
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

NCT01076764 | Effect of Otamixaban Versus Unfractionated Heparin + Eptifibatide in Patients With Unstable Angina/Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Early Invasive Strategy | Phase 3 Interventional | Sanofi | Phase 3 testing of otamixaban found that its risk-benefit profile did not support clinical use. It did not decrease ischemic events compared to standard therapy heparin plus eptifibatide, and it caused increased bleeding episodes in patients undergoing planned percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndromes. | 4 |
