ABSTRACT
Rivaroxaban has emerged as a potential alternative to warfarin for the prevention of thromboembolism in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, there has been concern for the risk of major bleeding, especially in Asian patients. We investigated the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban compared to warfarin in Korean real world practice. A total of 2,208 consecutive non-valvular AF patients were divided into the Warfarin group (n=990) and the Rivaroxaban group (n=1218). Propensity matched 1-year clinical outcomes were compared (Warfarin, n=804; Rivaroxaban, n=804). The efficacy outcome was defined as stroke/systemic embolism (SE). The safety outcome was major bleeding. The primary net clinical benefit (NCB) was defined as the composite of stroke/SE, major bleeding, and all-cause mortality. Secondary, NCB was defined as the composite of stroke, SE, and major bleeding. Rivaroxaban had the similar efficacy in terms of thromboembolic event prevention [hazard ratio (HR) 0.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.37–1.32, p=0.266] compared to warfarin. Rivaroxaban significantly lowered the risk of major bleeding [HR 0.41, 95% CI 0.22–0.76, p=0.004]. Primary NCB was significantly low in the rivaroxaban group [HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.36–0.81, p=0.003]. Secondary NCB was also low in the rivaroxaban group [HR 0.62, 95% CI 0.40–0.99, p=0.041]. Both rivaroxaban 15 mg and 20 mg groups had similar efficacy and significantly lower risks of major bleeding as well as primary and secondary NCB compared to the warfarin group. In patients with non-valvular AF, rivaroxaban had a similar efficacy to warfarin in Korean real world practice. However, rivaroxaban had better safety and net clinical outcomes compared to warfarin.
