NCT02876718

Brief Summary

The main objective of the study is to assess preferences of Non Valvular Atrial Fibrillation (NVAF) patients towards different options of an anticoagulation treatment. Patient preferences for anticoagulant treatment attributes (convenience attributes only), based on a Discrete Choice Experiment(DCE) interview will be elicited and the impact of switching from Vitamin K Antagonist(VKA) to Xarelto® on Atrial Fibrilation(AF) patient treatment satisfaction will be documented, measured by score differences of the Anti-Clot Treatment Scale (ACTS) score in patients switching from VKA to Rivaroxaban.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Patient preferences for anticoagulant treatment attributes (utility values obtained in Logit/Probit estimates)

    The preferred attributes will be assessed by a questionnaire following a discrete choice experimental design.

    At 3 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Change of the Anti-clot treatment scale (ACTS) benefit and burden score from baseline (on VKA) to 3 months (on Xarelto)

    At 0 month and at 3 months

  • AF symptoms as measured by European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) symtoms (both severity and frequency)

    At 3 months

  • Reasons for switch from VKA to Xarelto

    At 0 month

Study Arms (1)

Rivaroxaban, BAY59-7939

It is a single-arm study in which only patients who switched from a VKA to a NOAC treatment will be included.

Drug: Rivaroxaban (Xarelto, BAY 59-7939)

Interventions

No specified dosing or dosage in the study. The treatment decision falls within current practice and the prescription of the medicines is clearly separated from the decision to include the patient in the study.
