Fondaparinux sodium selectively binds to antithrombin III, thereby potentiating the innate neutralization of activated factor X (Factor Xa) by antithrombin.
(Fondaparinux sodium, NCI Thesaurus)
Fondaparinux selectively binds to antithrombin III, thereby potentiating the innate neutralization of activated factor X (Factor Xa) by antithrombin.
(Fondaparinux, NCI Thesaurus)

(Batroxobin, NCI Thesaurus)
An orally active inhibitor of coagulation factor Xa (activated factor X) with anticoagulant activity.
(Betrixaban, NCI Thesaurus)
Danaparoid sodium binds to antithrombin III and inhibits the activity of activated factor X (factor Xa) and, to a lesser extent, activated factor II (thrombin) thereby preventing fibrin formation.
(Danaparoid Sodium, NCI Thesaurus)
The tosylate salt form of edoxaban, an orally active inhibitor of coagulation factor Xa (activated factor X) with anticoagulant activity.
(Edoxaban Tosylate, NCI Thesaurus)
This anticoagulant binds to antithrombin III, thereby enhancing the inactivation of activated factor X (Factor Xa) and, to a lesser extent, activated factor II (Factor IIa).
(Bemiparin Sodium, NCI Thesaurus)
It combines with tissue factor (factor III) to activate factor X in the clotting pathway.
(Coagulation Factor VII, NCI Thesaurus)
Nadroparin binds to antithrombin III (ATIII) and inhibits the activity of activated factor X (factor Xa), thereby inhibiting the final common pathway of the coagulation cascade and preventing the formation of a cross-linked fibrin clot.
