Asundexian: a systematic review of safety, efficacy, and pharmacological insights in thrombosis.
Review in Thrombosis journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAsundexian, a novel oral Factor XIa (FXIa) inhibitor, targets the intrinsic coagulation pathway to prevent thrombosis while potentially reducing bleeding risk compared to direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs). This systematic review synthesizes clinical evidence on its safety, efficacy, and pharmacological properties in managing arterial and venous thrombotic events.
methodsFollowing PRISMA guidelines, we searched PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Web of Science for clinical trials and observational studies on asundexian until January 2025. Inclusion criteria included studies reporting safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) outcomes. Two reviewers independently screened studies and extracted data, with quality assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool.
resultsEleven trials (n > 21,000, phases 1-3) were included. Asundexian suppressed FXIa activity, with phase 2 trials (e.g., PACIFIC-AF, PACIFIC-STROKE) showing reduced bleeding compared to apixaban. However, the phase 3 OCEANIC-AF trial was terminated early due to inferior efficacy in atrial fibrillation, with higher stroke/systemic embolism rates (2.5%) versus apixaban. PK/PD data support once-daily dosing with minimal drug interactions. Safety concerns include potential abnormal uterine bleeding, with limited data.
conclusionAsundexian shows promise in reducing bleeding but lacks efficacy in high-risk settings like atrial fibrillation. Ongoing trials are needed to define its role in specific thrombotic conditions. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
