ENRICH-AF Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether a new blood thinner reduces the risk of stroke in people with a history of brain bleed.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 45 who've had a non-traumatic brain bleed, have atrial fibrillation with a CHA2DS2-VASc score of at least 2, and are stable. It's not for those with bleeding risks like ulcers, clotting disorders, liver disease, or sensitivity to edoxaban. Pregnant women and those unlikely to follow the study plan are also excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The ENRICH-AF trial is testing if edoxaban (a blood thinner) is better than standard care without anticoagulants in preventing strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation who previously had a brain hemorrhage.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Edoxaban may increase the risk of bleeding including gastrointestinal bleeds. Other side effects can include allergic reactions to the medication and potential interactions that could affect how it works.

Other Research
Common treatments for Atrial Fibrillation include anticoagulants, rate control medications, and rhythm control medications. Anticoagulants, such as Edoxaban, work by inhibiting Factor Xa, which is crucial in the blood clotting process, thereby reducing the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in AF patients. Rate control medications, like beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers, slow the heart rate, improving symptoms and preventing tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy. Rhythm control medications, such as amiodarone, help maintain normal sinus rhythm. These treatments are vital as they address the primary risks associated with AF: stroke, heart failure, and reduced quality of life.
