Efficacy

NVAF

In the RE-LY® Trial, Proven Efficacy in Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation (NVAF)

ONLY PRADAXA® delivers superior reduction of both ischemic AND hemorrhagic stroke vs. warfarin in NVAF1-4

Pivotal RE‑LY® Trial: PRADAXA® vs warfarin Primary Efficacy Endpoint

PRADAXA® 150 mg BID (n=6,076)
warfarin (n=6,022)

RE_LY-PRADAXA-vs-warfarin-Primary-Efficacy-Endpoint
  • In NVAF, ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke3
  • Hemorrhagic stroke can be a complication of anticoagulation therapy4

IN THE RE‑LY® TRIAL, REDUCTION IN MORTALITY IN NVAF VS. WARFARIN

Lower rate of all-cause mortality5

  • 12% lower rate of all-cause mortality (3.6%/yr vs. 4.1%/yr, HR: 0.88, 95% CI [0.77, 1.00])

DVT/PE

PROVEN EFFICACY IN THE TREATMENT OF DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS AND PULMONARY EMBOLISM (DVT AND PE)

As effective as warfarin for the treatment of DVT and PE6

RE-COVER® Trial6

RE-COVER-Trial

Composite of fatal PE, symptomatic non-fatal PE, and/or DVT6

(Primary efficacy endpoint: 34 vs. 32 events, HR: 1.05, 95% CI [0.65, 1.70]) The protocol specified non-inferiority margin (2.75) for the HR was derived based on the upper limit of the 95% CI of the historical warfarin effect. PRADAXA® retains at least 66.9% of the historical warfarin effect, based on the primary composite endpoint.

RE-COVER® Trial7

RE-COVER-II-Trial

Composite of fatal PE, symptomatic non-fatal PE, and/or DVT7

(Primary efficacy endpoint: 34 vs. 30 events, HR: 1.13, 95% CI [0.69, 1.85]) The protocol specified non-inferiority margin (2.75) for the HR was derived based on the upper limit of the 95% CI of the historical warfarin effect. PRADAXA® retains at least 63.9% of the historical warfarin effect, based on the primary composite endpoint.

PROVEN EFFICACY IN THE REDUCTION IN RISK OF RECURRENCE OF DVT AND PE

As effective as warfarin in the reduction in risk of recurrence of DVT and PE8

RE-MEDY™ Trial8

Composite of fatal PE, symptomatic non-fatal PE, and/or DVT
(Primary efficacy endpoint: 26 vs. 18 events, HR: 1.44, 95% CI [0.78, 2.64])8

RE-MEDY-Trial

Superior 92% reduction in risk of recurrence of DVT and PE vs. placebo8

RE-SONATE® Trial8

Composite of fatal PE, unexplained death, or symptomatic non-fatal PE and/or DVT

RE-SONATE-Trial
