A subgroup analysis from the RE-LY trial has demonstrated that in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), twice-daily dabigatran etexilate has better efficacy and lower rates of major bleeding when compared with warfarin, as reported at ACC.11, the American College of Cardiology’s 60th Annual Scientific Session.
At ACC.13, the American College of Cardiology’s 62nd Annual Scientific Session, Anil Rajendra, MD, from the Medical University of South Carolina, in Charleston, SC, presented data showing similar bleeding and thrombotic complication rates at the time of atrial fibrillation ablation (AFA) in patients anticoagulated with dabigatran and rivaroxaban. Dr. Rajendra and colleagues determined that rivaroxaban has an acceptable safety profile for AFA.
At ACC.13, the American College of Cardiology’s 62nd Annual Scientific Session, leading cardiologists presented that the use of dabigatran following ablation for atrial fibrillation resulted in no major post-procedural complications.
Novel oral anticoagulants, that do not require the laboratory monitoring associated with warfarin therapy, may alter the landscape of venous thromboembolism treatment and stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation, according to a study presented at the 52nd American Society of Hematology Meeting and Exposition.
The primary efficacy outcome was the combined rate of death from a cardiovascular cause, heart attack, stroke due to inadequate blood supply, blood clots or amputation due to cardiovascular disease.
The researchers searched the U.S. Medicare database for NVAF patients 65 years of age and older who were newly prescribed one of the following medications: apixaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, or warfarin.
Dabigatran 150mg was superior to warfarin and dabigatran 110mg was noninferior to warfarin for preventing stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) regardless of CHA2DS2-VASc scores, as shown by the results of a subgroup analysis of the RE-LY trial presented today at ACC.11, the American College of Cardiology’s 60th Annual Scientific Session.
Supratherapeutic plasma levels of dabigatran etexilate do not prolong QTc intervals of the electrocardiogram (ECG), as reported from a study presented at ACC.11, the American College of Cardiology’s 60th Annual Scientific Session.
Study patients were randomized to Pradaxa 150mg twice daily or warfarin (target INR 2-3) and remained on this treatment for the trial duration.
