Ba c kg round

  • After acute coronary syndromes patients continue to

have recurrent ischemic events despite revascularization and dual antiplatelet therapy

  • Oral anticoagulation is superior to aspirin alone following

acute coronary syndromes, however warfarin is rarely used

  • Novel oral anticoagulants offer an opportunity to reduce

recurrent ischemic events beyond dual antiplatelet therapy but also pose a risk of bleeding, as shown in previous phase II studies with inhibitors of factors IIa and Xa

Conc lusions

Dabigatran in addition to aspirin and clopidogrel after an acute coronary syndrome is associated with a

  • low overall bleeding rate, with

– dose dependent increase in the composite of major (ISTH) and clinically relevant minor bleeding – < 1% absolute increase in major/severe bleeds (ISTH, TIMI, GUSTO) with dabigatran 110 - 150 mg b.d.

  • significant reduction in coagulation activity (D-dimer)

without dose relationship

  • low number of clinical endpoints in all treatment arms
  • good tolerability with all four doses
slide-17
SLIDE 17

Implic a tions

  • Dabigatran up to 150 mg b.d. on top of dual antiplatelet

therapy can be used with modestly increased bleeding risk

– This is of relevance for atrial fibrillation patients after acute coronary syndromes and stenting

  • RE-DEEM supports the rationale for evaluation of the

110 and 150 mg dabigatran doses on clinical outcome in acute coronary syndrome patients in a larger adequately powered study
