Pharmacokinetic Study to Evaluate Dabigatran Etexilate in Elderly Subjects

Summary

This study intends to collect blood samples of adult healthy subjects, elderly healthy subjects and elderly patients with atrial fibrillation after taking dabigatran etexilate for pharmacokinetics and other studies, aiming to reveal the effect of dabigatran etexilate in Chinese elderly population. Pharmacokinetic profile and biomarker concentration levels; fecal samples were collected for gut microbiota studies to further explore potential mechanisms. The results of the study may provide reference for the precision medicine of dabigatran etexilate and other drugs in the elderly population or the development of new clinical drugs.
