About this study

Patients receiving Novel Oral Anticoagulation (NOACs) undergo diagnostic and therapeutic procedures at a rate of 10% per year. Short half-lives and rapid onset of action allow for short periods of NOAC interruption without heparin bridging. There is only minimal information on the peri-procedural usage pattern of edoxaban and the related outcome data currently available. Therefore, further real-world clinical data on the peri-procedural usage pattern of edoxaban within any diagnostic or interventional procedure in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) or venous thromboembolism (VTE) will be collected in this registry.

Read the detailed description

Patients treated with edoxaban and with a planned or unplanned diagnostic or interventional procedure will be enrolled in this study in order to evaluate the peri-procedural dosing of edoxaban in patients with diagnostic or therapeutic procedures and collect details of the type diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. Patients from 7 different countries and care settings (primary care, secondary care, and different medical specialties) will be enrolled. The study will last until approximately 2000 procedures have been documented, e.g., until about 2000 participants are enrolled, which is expected to take approximately 2.5 years. Any relevant diagnostic or interventional procedure reported will be collected and documented in the electronic case report form (eCRF). Patients will be followed for 30 days after the procedure.

    Categories: minor bleeding, all bleeding, and death from any cause

    Measured: within 30 days after a procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of participants with acute coronary syndromes within 30 days after a planned or unplanned procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation and Venous Thromboembolism, run by Daiichi Sankyo.

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 5 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of participants with major bleeding within 30 days after a planned or unplanned procedure (time frame: within 30 days after a procedure). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02950168, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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 5 Feb 2020.
