An Open-label, 2 x 2 Factorial, Randomized Controlled, Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety ofApixaban vs. Vitamin K Antagonist and Aspirin vs. Aspirin Placebo in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and AcuteCoronary Syndrome or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. Objectives:
- To determine if apixaban is noninferior to VKA (INR target range 2.0-3.0) on the combined endpoint of ISTH major or clinically relevant non-major bleeding in patients with NVAF who develop ACS or undergo PCI with planned concomitant P2Y12 inhibitor therapy.
-To determine if anticoagulant plus single antiplatelet therapy with a P2Y12 inhibitor is superior to anticoagulant plus dual antiplatelet therapy with a P2Y12 inhibitor and aspirin on the combined outcome of ISTH major or clinically relevant non-major bleeding in patients with NVAF who develop ACS or undergo PCI with planned concomitant P2Y12 inhibitor therapy.
