About

Full description

This is a prospective randomized comparative evaluation of Edoxaban and Warfarin for safety and efficacy in perioperative use in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation undergoing clinically indicated implantation or replacement of cardiovascular implantable electrical devices. This study is a randomized, open label, active-controlled trial with an open-label safety extension, designed to compare local and systemic bleeding within 30 days of cardiac rhythm device implant among subjects randomized to continuous Warfarin or interrupted (<24 hours) Edoxaban. The study will have three phases, a run in phase to establish stable warfarin therapy, an acute open label 30 day phase when subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive interrupted edoxaban or continuous warfarin followed by an open label follow up phase for an additional 5 months for safety monitoring. Drug transitions will be performed according to approved drug labeling.

Inclusion criteria

Subjects with established atrial fibrillation (AF) and bradycardia on long term (>3 weeks) therapeutic oral anticoagulant (OAC) with warfarin or another OAC who are undergoing new pacemaker system implant or existing pacemaker system revision.
Subjects with newly detected bradycardia -tachycardia syndrome and AF who have been recently (less than 3 weeks) started on warfarin, have a therapeutic international normalized ratio (INR) and no thrombus on trans-esophageal echocardiogram (TEE) who are undergoing a new pacemaker system implant or revision.
Subjects with AF and ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT or VF) or acquired structural heart disease who are candidates for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy and are on long term (>3 weeks) therapeutic OAC with warfarin or another OAC who are undergoing new ICD system implant or existing ICD system revision.
Subjects with newly detected AF with VT or VF who have been recently (less than 3 weeks) started on warfarin, have a therapeutic INR and no thrombus on TEE who are undergoing ICD system implant or revision
