About this study

Official title: Therapy With New Oral Anticoagulants in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Renal Impairment

The aim of the present registry is to characterize and follow patients prospectively and retrospectively with renal impairment who have been prescribed apixaban for the prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation, with a comparison to the characteristics and outcomes associated with warfarin therapy in this population.

Read the detailed description

Current guidelines for the management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) recommend the use of novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in patients with non-valvular AF .Renal dysfunction has been shown to be an independent predictor of stroke or systemic emboli, but the risk of bleeding with conventional warfarin therapy is also significantly increased.Prevalence of renal dysfunction in patients with atrial fibrillation is high, with approximately 60% of patients having an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of ≤ 60 ml/min/BSA [6].NOACs undergoing significant renal secretion such as dabigatran are not recommended for patients with severe renal impairment, and dose adjustment are indicated for patients with milder degrees of renal dysfunction.However, real-world information regarding the usage and outcomes associated with NOAC therapy in patients with renal dysfunction are limited. The investigators plan to prospectively and retrospectively collect data regarding the clinical settings, characteristics, and outcomes of patients with renal dysfunction who have been prescribed apixaban in Israel, using a multicenter secure web-based registry.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation and Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation, run by Sheba Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ilan Goldenberg, Prof (Ilan.Goldenberg@sheba.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical Outcomes (time frame: within 12 month from enrollment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Aug 2014.
