Fondaparinux (Arixtra) is a synthetic anticoagulant based on the pentasaccharide sequence that makes up minimal antithrombin (AT) binding region of heparin. Similar to low molecular weight heparins, it is an indirect inhibitor of factor Xa, but it does not inhibit thrombin at all. Fondaparinux has a longer half-life than heparin and does not interact with platelets, both of which may be advantageous in certain settings. Indications for fondaparinux includedeep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism and superficial vein thrombosis.It is the same sequence as UFH and LMWH for the binding to antithrombin, however it has no extra chain and thus, is not considered a heparin product. It is also known to not cause HIT, as seen with UFH and LMWH.
COVID-19 scenarioanalysis:
Pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies together with governments around the globe are working to combat the COVID-19 outbreak. This is carried out by supporting development of vaccines to schedule for medicines supply chain challenges. Furthermore, there are around 115 vaccine candidates and other 155 molecules that are in the R&D pipeline. Moreover, commonly used drugs such as Hydroxychloroquine have seen huge boost in demand for management of COVID-19. There is an increase in demand for the drug, which has presented huge opportunities for manufacturers of COVID-19 management drugs, as many developed countries are short of the drug. Hence, owing to the demand for vaccine and treatment drugs for COVID-19, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry is anticipated to witness a substantial growth in the next few years.
