Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Participants With Major (Per International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis [ISTH] Criteria) or Clinically Relevant Non-major Bleeding Adjudicated by Clinical Event Committee During the Treatment Period
Major bleeding event was acute clinically overt bleeding accompanied by decrease in hemoglobin of 2 g/dL or more over a 24-hour period, transfusion of 2 or more units of packed red blood cells, or bleeding that occurs in critical site (e.g., intracranial). Fatal bleeding was also major bleeding event. Clinical relevant non-major bleeding was acute or sub-acute clinically overt bleeding that does not satisfy the criteria for major bleeding and that leads to either hospital admission for bleeding, physician guided medical or surgical treatment for bleeding or a change in antithrombotic therapy.
Baseline to Week 12
Secondary Outcomes (6)

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥ 20 years outpatient (regardless of sex)
- Patients diagnosed as non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF)
- One or more following risks of stroke.
You may not qualify if:
- Recent cerebral infarction (includes TIA) within 4 weeks of week 0.
- Subjects who have or are suspected to have a serious/hereditary bleeding tendency, such as disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome (DIC), congenital platelet dysfunction and von Willebrand disease (those suspected from the family history are included).
- Subjects who have or are suspected to have a serious/hereditary thrombogenic tendency (those suspected from the family history are included) or those who require continuation of the Warfarin therapy.
