Plasma Modifications Associated With Rivaroxaban® Treatment for Stroke Prevention

Completed
Conditions
Atrial Fibrillation
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02273700
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
Brief Summary

The main objective of this pilot study is to investigate the protein / peptide plasma profiles before and after treatment with a direct anti-Xa (activated Factor 10) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation to better understand the mechanisms of action of these molecules and perform exploratory analyses concerning proteins whose concentrations change after starting treatment.

GroupInterventionDescription
the Study PopulationRivaroxabanThe study population consists of patients in the cardiology department at the Nîmes University Hospital with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and who are candidates for treatment with a direct oral anticoagulant: Rivaroxaban (Xarelto®). Patients will be selected according to criteria designed to result in a homogeneous population (associated anticoagulants, etc., see below). For this study, patients must not have had a direct oral anti-Xa (activated Factor 10) in the 6 months preceding enrollment. Intervention: Rivaroxaban
