NCT00402597

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of rivaroxaban in patients with recent acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and to assess the ability of rivaroxaban to reduce the occurrence of death, myocardial infarction (heart attack), repeat myocardial infarctions, stroke, and ischemia (inadequate blood supply to a local area) in patients with recent ACS.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Clinically Significant Bleeding Events (Primary Safety)

    The number of patients with a first occurrence of a TIMI clinically significant bleeding event that occurred from the time of randomization to the time of the last patient contact. TIMI clinically significant bleeding events included TIMI minor bleeding events, TIMI major bleeding events, or any bleeding that required medical attention.

    Day 1 to Day 210

  • The Composite Endpoint of All Cause Death, Myocardial Infarction (MI) (Including Repeat MI), Stroke (Ischemic, Hemorrhagic or Unknown), or Severe Recurrent Ischemia Requiring Revascularization (Primary Efficacy)

    The number of patients who died due to any cause or had a first occurrence of MI (including repeat MI) or stroke (ischemic, hemorrhagic or unknown) or severe recurrent ischemia requiring revascularization from the time of randomization to the last date of patient contact.

    Day 1 to Day 210

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • The Composite Endpoint of Death (All Cause), Myocardial Infarction (MI) (or Repeat MI), or Stroke

    Day 1 to Day 210

  • The Composite Endpoint of Cardiovascular Death, Myocardial Infarction (MI), or Stroke

    Day 1 to Day 210

  • The Number of Deaths (All Cause)

    Day 1 to Day 210

  • The Composite Endpoint of Death (All Cause), MI (or reMI), Stroke, Severe Recurrent Ischemia Requiring Revascularization, or Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) (Major or Minor Bleeding) to Assess the Net Clinical Benefit

    Day 1 to Day 210

Study Arms (3)

001

EXPERIMENTAL

Rivaroxaban 1 rivaroxaban tablet twice daily for 6 months. Safety at each dose level will be confirmed before additional patients are randomized to the next higher dose level.

Drug: Rivaroxaban

EXPERIMENTAL

Rivaroxaban/Placebo 1 rivaroxaban tablet once daily (and 1 placebo tablet once daily) for 6 months. Safety at each dose level will be confirmed before additional patients are randomized to the next higher dose level.

Drug: Rivaroxaban/Placebo

003

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Placebo 1 placebo tablet twice daily for 6 months.

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

1 rivaroxaban tablet once daily (and 1 placebo tablet once daily) for 6 months. Safety at each dose level will be confirmed before additional patients are randomized to the next higher dose level.

002

1 placebo tablet twice daily for 6 months.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Have symptoms suggestive of ACS that lasted at least 10 minutes at rest occurring within 7 days of randomization
  • Have a diagnosis of ST-elevation myocardial infarction or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction/unstable angina (ie, chest pain or discomfort) (ST elevation is an abnormal finding from an ECG test) with at least 1 protocol-defined high risk feature

You may not qualify if:

  • Active bleeding or high risk of bleeding or intracranial hemorrhage (bleeding within the skull enclosing the brain)
  • Need for continued anticoagulant therapy
  • Significantly impaired renal (kidney) or hepatic (liver) function
  • Severe concomitant diseases such as cardiogenic shock (heart damage that results in insufficient blood supply to other parts or organs of the body), refractory ventricular arrhythmias (irregular contractions of the heart unresponsive to treatment), or any severe condition that would limit life expectancy of the patient to less than 6 months
