Rivaroxaban in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Coronary Artery Disease Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

January 7, 2015 updated by: Yujie Zhou, Beijing Anzhen Hospital
To evaluate the safety for the combination of Rivaroxaban and Ticagrel versus triple antithrombotic regimen (Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA), Clopigogrel and Aspirin) in patients with atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is an open-label (both physician and participant know the treatment that the participant receives), randomized (study medication is assigned by chance), multicenter clinical study assessing the safety of the combination of rivaroxaban and ticagrel versus triple antithrombotic regimen (warfarin, clopigogrel and aspirin) in patients, who have paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) and concomitant coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A target of 420 participants will be randomized into the study, with approximately 210 participants in each treatment strategy group. Primary comparisons will be made of the rates of major and clinically relevant bleeding, assessed by the modified International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) classification. The study consists of a screening phase, a 12-month open-label treatment phase, and an end-of-treatment/early withdrawal visit. The total duration of participation in the study for each participant is approximately 12 months.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Major or clinically relevant non-major bleeding
Time Frame: 12 months
Major bleeding was assessed by the International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) definition. It included bleeding that was fatal, occurred in a critical location (intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intraarticular, intramuscular with compartment syndrome, or pericardial), or was associated with a fall in hemoglobin of 2 g/dL or a transfusion of 2 units of packed red blood cells. Clinically relevant non-major bleeding was defined as bleeding that required medical or surgical intervention.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Composite outcome of death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis and ischemic stroke
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
