Atherosclerosis

Study to gain insights in treatment patterns and outcomes in patients with atherosclerosis prescribed to Xarelto in combination with acetylsalicylic acid

Trial purpose

In this study researchers want to gain more information on treatment patterns of patients treated with Xarelto in combination with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Both drugs reduce the risk of blood clots via different pathways. The study will enroll adult patients suffering from coronary artery disease (narrowing or blockage of vessels that supply the heart with blood) or peripheral artery disease (narrowing or blockage of vessels that supply the legs or head with blood). The study will focus on information on when and why physicians are starting to treat patients with Xarelto in addition to ASA, treatment duration, reasons to discontinue treatment and previous therapies. The study will also look into treatment outcomes for patients being treated with a combination of Xarelto and ASA by their physicians.

Key Participants Requirements

Sex

All

Age

18 - N/A
  • - Adults with diagnosis Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) or Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD).
    - Treatment according to local marketing authorization, rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily started within 4 weeks prior to enrolment. Only in those countries with a marketing authorization of rivaroxaban in the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) indication, also patients already on rivaroxaban treatment for ACS, who are subsequently fulfilling criteria for CAD, are allowed to be enrolled within 4 weeks of this decision being made.

  • - Patients who will be treated with chronic anticoagulation therapy other than rivaroxaban 2.5 mg given for CAD/PAD.
    - Participation in an interventional trial.
