Popis: | Background The impact on outcomes of oral anticoagulants in pts at extremes of body weight have not been well-characterized. Aim To analyse the outcomes of pts with atrial fibrillation (AF) enrolled in ENGAGE AF-TMI 48 randomized to warfarin (W) targeting INR 2.0–3.0, higher (HDE) or lower dose regimens of edoxaban (LDE), focusing on subgroups of patients at the extremes of weight. Methods and results Among 21105 pts enrolled in the trial we identified 3 subgroups: 1082 with low body weight (LBW) (95th percentile, >120 kg). Baseline characteristics differed markedly (LWB pts were older and more likely Asian, women, with prior TIA/stroke, renal dysfunction) resulting in a trend towards higher rates of stroke/systemic embolism (SSE: 6.5% vs 4.7% in MBW vs 1.6% in HBW) and major bleeding (MB: 9.3% vs 7.7% in MBW vs 6.5% in HBW) in the warfarin arm. The risks of SSE (Pint = 0.52) were similar between W and HDE regardless of body weight, while the relative reduction in MB was greatest in LBW patients (HR reduction45%, 23%, 1% across weight groups; Pint = 0.35) (Figure). Net clinical outcomes (SEE/major bleeding/death) tended to be most favourable for LBW pts (HR 0.67 [0.50–0.90]; Pint 0.084) (Figure). Main outcomes during follow up Conclusions In ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 the profile of AF pts with LBW markedly differed suggesting a more fragile clinical status. Use of dose-adjusted edoxaban, as compared to W, was associated with similar efficacy regardless of weight, while bleeding and net outcomes were most favourable in LBW pts. |
