Assume that NAOs have been on the market for 5 year
➢A new drug comes to the market. Compared to NAOs, the new drug has:
- cheaper
- antidote
- requirement for monthly monitoring to adjust dose
- many food and drug interactions
- 25% increased relative risk of stroke/systemic embolism
- nearly 50% increased relative risk of major bleeding
- approx. 2.5 times the rate of ICH
- 10% increased relative risk of mortality
➢Would Warfarin be approved by regulatory authorities now?

evento ischemico (TIA/Ictus)
4 - ROCKET AF
subanalysis: secondary prevention - Rationale
 The aim of this prespecified subanalysis was to investigate whether the efficacy and safety of
rivaroxaban compared with warfarin is consistent among the subgroups of patients with and
without previous stroke or TIA and the entire ROCKET AF study population
 Because treatment effects might differ between patients with prior stroke/TIA patients
because there may be a higher risk of recurrence of stroke and higher risk of bleeding
events
 Cohorts:
‐
History of stroke/TIA (stroke cohort) versus
‐
No history of stroke/TIA (non-stroke cohort)
 7468 (52%) patients had a previous stroke (n=4907; 65%) or TIA (n=2561; 34%)

ROCKET AF
subanalysis: secondary prevention - Conclusion


Efficacy and safety results in patients with prior stroke/TIA were
consistent
‐
With patients without prior stroke/TIA and
‐
With the entire ROCKET AF study population
Overall bleeding rates were similar
‐
in both treatment arms and
‐
in patients with and without prior stroke/TIA
 Fatal bleedings as well as ICH were less frequent in the rivaroxaban arm,
but this difference did not reach statistical significance
 These results support the use of rivaroxaban as an alternative to warfarin
for both primary and secondary stroke prevention in AF

*Reason for not performing cardioversion as first scheduled from 21–25 days primarily due to

Cappato R et al. Eur Heart J 2014: doi: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehu367
Clinical implications: rivaroxaban in the cardioversion
setting
• Based on data from X-VeRT, rivaroxaban can be regarded as
an effective and safe alternative to VKAs in patients with AF
scheduled for cardioversion irrespective of:
I.
Early (with or without a TEE-guided approach) or delayed
cardioversion strategy
II. Cardioversion (electrical or pharmacological) strategy
• Results demonstrate that rivaroxaban may overcome critical
limitations of VKA treatment in the setting of cardioversion,
including a significant reduction in time to cardioversion
