About this study

Official title: The Effectiveness and Safety of Apixaban Versus Warfarin in Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation (NVAF) Patients With the History of Osteoporosis and/or Fracture: A Nation-wide Population Based Study

Old age, less body weight and deteriorated renal function are significant clinical factors for the outcomes of atrial fibrillation- so called 'fragile'- and these are common risk factors in osteoporosis and fracture. Therefore, in real world, these risk factors and co-morbidities are commonly considered when it comes to prescribe anticoagulant in atrial fibrillation patients. Recent study even reported that comorbid atrial fibrillation in patients with osteoporosis might be associated with an increased risk of bone fracture and death after fracture. Because there have been very few data about the effectiveness/safety of anticoagulant among non-valvular atrial fibrillation with prior osteoporosis/fracture, this study is planned to provide real-world evidences for this specific type of non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Composite of ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke and and systemic embolism

    Intake period is from July 1, 2015 to Nov 30, 2016.

    Measured: from index date (1st prescription date for oral anticoagulants during the intake period) to follow up period(the index date- Nov 30, 2016 or outcomes whichever comes first)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Major bleeding including gastrointestinal bleeding, intracranial bleeding, and other bleeding

    Intake period is from July 1, 2015 to Nov 30, 2016.

    Measured: from index date (1st prescription date for oral anticoagulants during the intake period) to follow up period (the index date- Nov 30, 2016 or outcomes whichever comes first)

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted13 Dec 2019

  3. Primary completion31 Mar 2020 (estimated)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation, run by Pfizer at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Composite of ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke and and systemic embolism (time frame: from index date (1st prescription date for oral anticoagulants during the intake period) to follow up period(the index date- Nov 30, 2016 or outcomes whichever comes first)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2020.
