Edoxaban Versus Edoxaban With antiPlatelet Agent In Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Chronic Stable Coronary Artery Disease

Summary

This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of Edoxaban with the combination of edoxaban and antiplatelet in patients with stable CAD (coronary artery stenosis ≥50% on medical treatment or revascularized stable CAD \[≥ 12 months for acute coronary syndrome and ≥ 6 months after stable CAD\]) and high-risk atrial fibrillation (CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥2).
