12 RE LY: Dabigatran (Pradaxa ) Trial design: Patients with AF were randomized to either dabigatran 110 mg, 150 mg, or open-label warfarin. Patients were followed for a mean of 2 years. %/year 10 5 *Dabigatran 150 mg vs. warfarin; Dabigatran 110 mg vs. warfarin (p <0.001*, p = 0.34 ) (p = 0.31*, p = 0.03 ) %/year Stroke/systemic embolism Dabigatran 110 mg 5 Major bleeding Dabigatran 150 mg Warfarin Results Dabigatran 150 mg superior to warfarin for stroke/systemic embolism; dabigatran 110 mg was non-inferior Stroke in dabigatran 150 mg arm (p < 0.001) Major bleeding was higher in warfarin arm compared with dabigatran 110 mg, but was similar to dabigatran 150 mg Conclusions Dabigatran 150 mg superior to warfarin in reducing stroke or systemic embolism, with a similar bleeding profile. The 110 mg dose was non-inferior for efficacy, associated with lower bleeding compared with warfarin Could prove to be alternative to warfarin for chronic anticoagulation; further data are awaited Connolly SJ, et al. N Engl J Med 2009;Aug 30:[Epub]

14 ROCKET AF Rivaroxaban (Xarelto ) Trial design: Patients with atrial fibrillation at increased risk for stroke were randomized to the direct factor Xa inhibitor rivaroxaban 20 mg oral daily (n = 7,131) vs. warfarin with target INR 2-3 (n = 7,133). Results Per 100 patient-years (p for noninferiority < 0.001) 1.7 primary 2.2 Stroke or non-cns systemic embolism Rivaroxaban, 20 mg daily Warfarin, INR 2-3 Stroke or non-cns systemic embolism (per 100 patient-years): 1.7 with rivaroxaban vs. 2.2 with warfarin (p for noninferiority < 0.001, p for superiority = 0.12 by intention to treat analysis, p for superiority = by on-treatment analysis) Major and nonmajor clinically relevant bleeding (per 100 patient-years): 14.9 vs (p = 0.44) Intracranial hemorrhage (per 100 patient-years): 0.5 vs. 0.7 (p = 0.019) Conclusions Among atrial fibrillation patients with high stroke risk, rivaroxaban was noninferior to warfarin Rivaroxaban (on-treatment analysis) was associated with a reduced incidence of the primary outcome without an excess of major bleeding or intracranial hemorrhage Patel MR, et al. N Engl J Med 2011;Aug 10:[Epub]

[in view of the improved efficacy in the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism (but lower rates of intracranial haemorrhage and similar rates of major bleeding events, when compared with warfarin)] - HAS-BLED= 3: dabigatran 110 mg b.i.d.. [in[ view of a similar efficacy in the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism (but lower rates of intracranial haemorrhage and of major bleeding compared with VKA)] - CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc=1: dabigatran 110 mg b.i.d.. may be considered [in view of a similar efficacy with VKA in the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism but lower rates of intracranial haemorrhage and major bleeding compared with the VKA and (probably) AAS.]

28 Guías FA Canadienses 2010 Estratificación de riesgo Riesgo embólico / Riesgo hemorrágico En todos los pacientes con FA o flutter debe realizarse una estratificación del riesgo tromboembólico (CHADS 2 ) y hemorrágico (HASBLED) porque la mayoría recibirán tratamiento anticoagulante Strong Recommendati on High Quality Evidence

29 -We recommend that all patients with AF or AFL should be stratified using a predictive index for stroke(e.g. CHADS 2 ) and for the risk of bleeding(e.g. HAS-BLED), and that most patients should receive antithrombotic therapy. - CHADS 2 =0: AAS(-) patients at very low risk of stroke should receive AAS( mg/day). We suggest that some young persons with no standard risk factors for stroke may not require anyantithrombotic therapy. -CHADS 2 =1: OAC (AAS) patients at low risk of stroke should receive OAC therapy (either warfarinor dabigatran). We suggest, based on individual risk/benefit considerations, that AASis a reasonable alternative for some. -CHADS 2 2:OAC patients at moderate risk of stroke should receive OAC therapy (either warfarin or dabigatran). We suggest, that when OAC therapy is indicated, most patients should receive dabigatranin preference to warfarin (excluding CAD patients). In general, the dose of dabigatran150 mg pobid is preferable to a dose of 110 mg po (Conditional recommendation. High Quality Evidence).
