Strategy of DOAC After TAVR Disappoints in ATLANTIS

email article A direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) was no better than existing antithrombotic treatments after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), according to ATLANTIS trial investigators. TAVR patients randomized to apixaban (Eliquis) instead of antiplatelet therapy or warfarin saw no reduction in the trial s primary endpoint, a composite of death, MI, stroke, systemic emboli, intracardiac or bioprosthesis thrombus, episode of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE), and major bleeding over 1-year follow-up (18.4% vs 20.1%, HR 0.92, 95% CI 0.73-1.16). These findings were consistent whether patients had an indication for oral anticoagulation or not, reported Jean-Philippe Collet, MD, PhD, of Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris, at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) virtual meeting.
