About this study

Official title: The Use of Dabigatran Etexilate in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation After Mitral Valve Prosthetic Replacement

The efficacy and safety of anticoagulation therapy using dabigatran in comparison with warfarin will be evaluated in patients with atrial fibrillation after mitral valve prosthetic replacement concomitant with Cox-Maze procedure.

Read the detailed description

Patients with prosthetic mitral valves need a long-term anticoagulation therapy. After mitral valve replacement using mechanical prostheses warfarin is administrated during the whole life. Biological prostheses allows do discontinue anticoagulation 3 months after surgery in the absence of other risk factors of thrombosis especially atrial fibrillation. The common approach to patients with mitral valve disease and atrial fibrillation is mitral valve prosthetic replacement concomitant to Cox-Maze procedure. This allows to maintain sinus rhythm in 65-80% of patients. In the study the safety and efficacy of dabigatran in comparison with warfarin will be evaluated after the mitral valve surgery and Cox-Maze procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dabigatran Etexilate and Warfarin in people with Mitral Valve Stenosis and Insufficiency and Atrial Fibrillation, run by Research Institute for Complex Problems of Cardiovascular Diseases, Russia at 1 site in Russia.

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 13 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 12 Jun 2017. 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 Russia. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

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?

Thrombosis (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT03183843, which also lists 2 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 12 Jun 2017.
