Atrial Fibrillation, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Atrial Fibrillation focused on measuring Atrial Fibrillation, Irregular heart beat, rivaroxaban, aspirin, clopidogrel, prasugrel, ticagrelor, vitamin K antagonist
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Have a documented medical history of paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF)
- Have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedure (with stent placement) for primary atherosclerotic disease
- Must have an international normalized ratio (INR) of 2.5 or below to be randomized
- Women must be postmenopausal before entry or practicing a highly effective method of birth control when heterosexually active
- Be willing and able to adhere to the prohibitions and restrictions specified in the study protocol
Exclusion Criteria:
- Have any condition that contraindicates anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy or would have an unacceptable risk of bleeding, such as, but not limited to: platelet count <90,000/microliter at screening, history of intracranial hemorrhage, 12 month history of clinically significant gastrointestinal bleeding, non-VKA induced elevated prothrombin time (PT) at screening
- Have anemia of unknown cause with a hemoglobin level <10 g/dL (<6.21 mmol/L)
- Have a history of stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
- Have a calculated Creatinine Clearance (CrCl) <30 mL/min at screening
- Have known significant liver disease or liver function test (LFT) abnormalities
