LIBREXIA-ACS Trial Summary
This trial tests if a drug (milvexian) can reduce the risk of a major heart event (MACE) compared to a fake drug (placebo).
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who recently had a heart-related emergency (acute coronary syndrome) with certain risk factors like being over 65, diabetes, or past heart issues. They must not need chronic blood thinners and should have no major bleeding risks or planned heart surgeries after joining the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if Milvexian can better prevent serious heart problems when added to usual treatments compared to a placebo. It focuses on avoiding events like death from heart causes, new heart attacks, and strokes in patients who've just had one such event.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of Milvexian aren't listed here, similar medications often cause increased bleeding risk. Participants will be monitored for any adverse reactions throughout the trial.

Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: MilvexianExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants enrolled within 7 days of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS), who have undergone cardiac catheterization with percutaneous intervention (PCI) or who are being managed conservatively with or without catheterization, and who are receiving antiplatelet therapy standard-of-care (single antiplatelet therapy [SAPT] or dual antiplatelet therapy [DAPT]) as determined by the investigator will receive milvexian 25 milligrams (mg), orally, twice daily.
Group II: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants enrolled within 7 days of an ACS, who have undergone cardiac catheterization with PCI or who are being managed conservatively with or without catheterization, and who are receiving antiplatelet therapy standard-of-care (SAPT or DAPT) as determined by the investigator will receive placebo orally, twice daily.

Other Research
Common treatments for Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) often include antithrombotic agents such as aspirin, clopidogrel, and newer agents like Factor XIa inhibitors (e.g., Milvexian). These medications work by inhibiting various pathways in the blood clotting process.
Aspirin inhibits platelet aggregation by blocking the enzyme cyclooxygenase, while clopidogrel prevents platelets from clumping together by inhibiting the P2Y12 receptor. Factor XIa inhibitors, like Milvexian, target and inhibit Factor XIa, a key enzyme in the coagulation cascade that leads to thrombus (clot) formation.
By preventing clot formation, these treatments reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) such as myocardial infarction (heart attack), ischemic stroke, and cardiovascular death, which are critical concerns for ACS patients.
