International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) defined bleeding events included: MCRB, major bleeding, including fatal bleeding (intracranial and non-intracranial), symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, symptomatic bleeding in a critical area or organ, and clinically overt and causing ≥2.0 g/dL adjusted hemoglobin loss, clinically relevant non-major (CRNM) bleeding, minor bleedings, any bleeding (defined as the composite of major, CRNM, and minor bleeding), life-threatening bleeding, provoked (spontaneous, instrumental/traumatic, unknown) bleeding, and spontaneous bleeding.

Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) bleeding events included: Bleeding (defined by BARC type 3 or 5), bleeding (defined by BARC type 2, 3, or 5), and any bleeding (defined as the composite of BARC type 1, 2, 3, or 5), where increases in BARC type indicate worse outcome.
Type 1: bleeding that is not actionable and does not cause the patient to seek unscheduled performance of studies, hospitalization, or treatment by a healthcare professional; may include episodes leading to self-discontinuation of medical therapy by the patient without consultation; Type 2: any overt, actionable sign of hemorrhage that does not fit the criteria for type 3, 4, or 5 but does meet at least one of the following criteria: (1) requiring nonsurgical, medical intervention, (2) leading to hospitalization or increased level of care, or (3) prompting evaluation; Type 3: Overt bleeding plus hemoglobin drop of 3 to ≤5 g/dL (3a), ≥5 g/dl (3b), and intracranial hemorrhage (3c) Type 5: Fatal bleeding
- Number of Participants With Main Efficacy Endpoints For the Overall Study Period Following Edoxaban-based Regimen Compared With Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA)-Based Regimen [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 12 months postdose ]The main efficacy endpoints were defined as the composite of cardiovascular death (ARC), stroke (protocol defined), systemic embolic event (SEE), myocardial infarction (MI), or definite stent thrombosis.
- Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Following Edoxaban-based Regimen Compared With Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA)-Based Regimen [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 30 days after the last dose ]Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) in >1.0% of participants were defined as events which started on or after first dose of the assigned study drug (edoxaban and VKA) or started prior to but then worsened after the first dose of the assigned study drug.
- Number of Participants With Study Drug-related Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Experienced by 2 or More Participants Following Edoxaban-based Regimen Compared With Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA)-Based Regimen [ Time Frame: Day 1 to 30 days after the last dose ]Study drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) (experienced by 2 or more participants) were defined as events which started on or after first dose of the assigned study drug (edoxaban and VKA) or started prior to but then worsened after the first dose of the assigned study drug and were found to be related to treatment by the Investigator.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Oral anticoagulant (OAC) indication for atrial fibrillation for a period of at least 12 months following successful PCI with stenting.
Eligibility is assessed 4 hours after sheath removal and within 5 days after successful PCI with stent placement. If a staged PCI is planned, eligibility is assessed after completion of the last stage.
Successful PCI definition:
The success of a PCI procedure is defined by 2 interrelated components: angiographic findings, procedural / clinical outcomes as detailed below:
Angiographic Success A minimum stenosis diameter of < 20% (as visually assessed by angiography - residual blockage or stenosis reduced to less than 20% of the artery's diameter).
Sufficient enlargement of the lumen at the target site to improve coronary artery blood flow with final thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade 3 (visually assessed by angiography), without occlusion of a significant side branch, flow-limiting dissection, distal embolization, or angiographic thrombus.
Procedural Success No major in-hospital clinical complications(e.g. ongoing International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis [ISTH] major or clinical relevant non-major procedural bleeding at the time of randomization, stroke, emergency coronary artery bypass graft [CABG]).
In summary, a clinically successful PCI requires both anatomic and procedural success along with relief of signs and/or symptoms of myocardial ischemia at the time of randomization.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Bleeding risks or systemic conditions
-
Known bleeding diathesis, including but not limited to,
-
Uncontrolled active bleeding, encompassing both ISTH major and clinically relevant non-major bleeding, preceding randomization.

This may include but is not limited to: unresolved gastrointestinal ulceration, presence of malignant neoplasms at high risk of bleeding (e.g. malignancies with metastasis), recent unresolved brain or spinal injury, recent brain, spinal or ophthalmic surgery, any intracranial hemorrhage, known or suspected esophageal varices, arteriovenous malformations, vascular aneurysms (of more than 3.5 cm) or major intraspinal or intracerebral vascular abnormalities.
- Medication-related
-
- International normalized ratio (INR) > 2.5 (the participant can be reconsidered at a later time, but within 5 days of sheath removal).
- Contraindication to edoxaban, VKA, acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and/or P2Y12 antagonists;
