Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Safety Outcome: The percentage of patients with minor, clinically relevant non-major (CRNM) and major bleeding [International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) definition of bleeding]
The percentage of patients with the first occurrence of bleeding event according to ISTH definition. The statistical analysis was based on the occurrence of the bleeding event from randomization to Month 6.
Primary Efficacy Outcome: The percentage of patients with the composite endpoint of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, re-revascularization or stroke.
The percentage of patients with the first occurrence of the composite of death, myocardial infarction, re-revascularization or stroke. The statistical analysis was based on the time from randomization to the first occurrence of the event up to Month 6.

Secondary Outcome Measures

The percentage of patients with the cardiac-related rehospitalization.
The percentage of patients with the cardiac-related rehospitalization. The statistical analysis was based on the time from randomization to the first occurrence of the event up to Month 6.
The percentage of patients with the all-cause death.
The percentage of patients with the all-cause death. The statistical analysis was based on the time from randomization to the first occurrence of the event up to Month 6.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
H-REPLACE trial is a prospective, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multicenter study in participants with ACS (STEMI or NSTEMI, unstable angina). All eligible participants receiving background treatment of aspirin plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor will be randomly assigned to either oral rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily or rivaroxaban 5 mg twice daily or subcutaneous (SC) enoxaparin 1mg/kg twice daily until hospital discharge or 12 hours before revascularization therapy for a maximum of 8 days.
Detailed Description
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a serious and life threatening condition. Anticoagulation during the acute phase of ACS is effective in reducing ischaemic events. The combination regimen of anticoagulation with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) strategy is more effective than either treatment alone. The most widely used parenteral anticoagulation agent in ACS patients is enoxaparin (1 mg/kg administered subcutaneously twice daily). Rivaroxaban is a novel oral anticoagulant with potent anti-Xa activity, which might be an attractive alternative drug to enoxaparin. In fact, rivaroxaban was consistently shown to be non-inferior to enoxaparin therapy aimed to reduce the event of recurrent venous thromboembolism. Moreover, the bleeding risk of low dose of rivaroxaban is low and acceptable (1.0-2.5%) during the acute phase of ACS as shown by ATLAS ACS-TIMI 46 Trial, and the bleeding risk of enoxaparin during the acute phase of ACS was 4.3% as shown in a meta-analysis. We thus hypothesized that the safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban during the acute phase of ACS is non-inferior to enoxaparin and designed this prospective, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multicenter study in participants with ACS (STEMI or NSTEMI or unstable angina). All eligible participants receiving background treatment of aspirin plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor will be randomly assigned to either receive oral rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily or oral rivaroxaban 5 mg twice daily or enoxaparin 1mg/kg twice daily SC until hospital discharge or 12 hours before revascularization therapy for a maximum of 8 days.
