Driving Progress in Cardiology: Exploring the Role of FXI in Acute Coronary Syndromes & Beyond
Overview
Don’t miss this course on the potential role of factor XI inhibition in acute coronary syndrome, Afib, and secondary stroke prevention. Despite significant efforts to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) setting, as well as secondary stroke prevention and prevention of ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation, patients remain at risk. In this symposium, faculty will critically evaluate the limitations of current anticoagulation strategies, discuss factor XI inhibitors, assess the latest clinical trials and research, and consider the potential role of factor XI inhibitors in thrombosis and hemostasis.
Faculty and Program
Michael C. Gibson, MD, MSCA Roxana Mehran, MD, MSCAI
Provider
This activity is sponsored by TotalCME and supported by an independent educational grant from Bristol Myers Squibb and Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine Alliance.
Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Explain the mechanisms of action of current anticoagulant therapies, their impact on specific pathways of the coagulation cascade, and their potential to elevate the risk of serious bleeding events
  • Identify and describe the role of novel coagulation pathways, such as factor XIa inhibition, in the development of safer and more effective anticoagulant therapies
  • Assess the benefits and risks associated with emerging anticoagulant therapies, focusing on their potential to reduce bleeding complications while maintaining efficacy in thromboembolic event prevention
  • Assess the potential of factor XI as a therapeutic target to reduce thrombotic risk while minimizing bleeding complications in patients with acute coronary syndromes
