Nahid A. Qushmaq: Advancing Anticoagulation Through Factor XI/XIa Inhibition
Nahid A. Qushmaq, General Supervisor Assistant for Medical Support Services, Consultant Adult Hematology of Thrombosis and Hemostasis, Head Of Research and Development Department at King Abdullah Medical Complex – Jeddah, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“One of the most valuable sessions I attended at ISTH 2026 was ‘Emerging Therapies in Thrombosis: Factor XI/XIa Inhibitors’, delivered by Dr. Jeffrey Weitz.
The session provided an excellent overview of the evolving role of FXI/FXIa inhibition in thrombosis prevention and highlighted the exciting potential of these novel agents to reduce thrombotic events while minimizing bleeding risk, making it one of the most promising next-generation anticoagulant strategies.
An insightful and thought-provoking session that reinforces how rapidly the field of thrombosis is advancing.”
