Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants Displaying the Composite of Major and Clinically Relevant Minor Bleeding Events During Total Observation Time [6 month treatment period + 2 week post treatment follow up]

    International Society Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) definition of a major bleed, and clinically relevant minor bleed. A bleeding event was considered as major if it was fatal, was a symptomatic bleeding in a critical area or organ (intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intra-articular, pericardial, or intramuscular with compartment syndrome), or caused a fall in haemoglobin level of ≥2 g/dL (≥1.24 mmol/L), or led to transfusion of ≥2 units of whole blood or red cells. All non major bleeding events were classified as minor bleeds; minor bleeds were subdivided in clinically relevant minor bleeds and not clinically relevant minor bleeds. A CRBE was defined as an acute or subacute clinically overt bleed that did not meet the criteria of a major bleed but either lead to hospital admission and/or a physician guided medical or surgical treatment and/or a change in antithrombotic therapy (including interruption or discontinuation of study drug).

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Composite of Cardiovascular Death (CVD) With Non Fatal Myocardial Infarction (MI) and Non Haemorrhagic Stroke and All Cause Death (ACD), Non Fatal MI, Severe Recurrent Ischaemia (SRI) and Non Haemorrhagic Stroke During Six Months Treatment [6 month treatment period + 2 week post treatment follow up]

    Number of Participants with Composite of Cardiovascular death (CVD) with non fatal myocardial infarction (MI) and non haemorrhagic stroke and All cause death (ACD), non fatal MI, severe recurrent ischaemia (SRI) and non haemorrhagic stroke during six months treatment

  2. Individual Occurrence of Death (Cardiovascular and All-cause), Non-fatal MI, Severe Recurrent Ischaemia and Non-haemorrhagic Stroke During Six Months of Treatment [6 month treatment period + 2 week post treatment follow up]

    Number of Participants with individual occurrence of death (cardiovascular and all-cause), non-fatal MI, severe recurrent ischaemia and non-haemorrhagic stroke during six months of treatment.

  3. Number of Participants With Any Reduction of D-dimer Concentration [at 1 week and 4 weeks]

  4. Change From Baseline in log10 D-dimer After 1 and 4 Weeks [Baseline and at 1 week and 4 weeks]

    Change from baseline in log10 D-dimer concentration after 1 and 4 weeks of dabigatran etexilate treatment compared to placebo. The standard deviation is the geometric standard deviation.

  5. Number of Participants With Bleeding Events During Total Observation Time [6 month treatment period + 2 week post treatment follow up]

    International Society Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) definition of a major bleed, and clinically relevant minor bleed. A bleeding event was considered as major if it was fatal, was a symptomatic bleeding in a critical area or organ (intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intra-articular, pericardial, or intramuscular with compartment syndrome), or caused a fall in haemoglobin level of ≥2 g/dL (≥1.24 mmol/L), or led to transfusion of ≥2 units of whole blood or red cells. All non major bleeding events were classified as minor bleeds; minor bleeds were subdivided in clinically relevant minor bleeds (CRBE) and not clinically relevant minor bleeds. A CRBE was defined as an acute or subacute clinically overt bleed that did not meet the criteria of a major bleed but either lead to hospital admission and/or a physician guided medical or surgical treatment and/or a change in antithrombotic therapy (including interruption or discontinuation of study drug).

  6. Laboratory Analyses [6 month treatment period + 2 week post treatment follow up]

    Number of patients with possible clinically significant abnormalities. Clinically significant abnormalities refers to the increase or decrease from baseline.

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details International multi-centre trial with 161 trial sites in 24 countries recruiting patients with acute coronary syndromes with increased troponin levels within 14 days post index myocardial infarction (ST or non-ST elevation between March 2008 and March 2009.
Pre-assignment Detail Patients receiving aspirin and clopidogrel at randomisation were included. They also had at least 1 additional risk factor (for e.g. age ≥65 years, diabetes previous myocardial infarction, peripheral arterial disease). Moderate renal impairment at screening resulted in dose adjustment.

Outcome Measures

1. Primary Outcome
Title Number of Participants Displaying the Composite of Major and Clinically Relevant Minor Bleeding Events During Total Observation Time
Description International Society Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) definition of a major bleed, and clinically relevant minor bleed. A bleeding event was considered as major if it was fatal, was a symptomatic bleeding in a critical area or organ (intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intra-articular, pericardial, or intramuscular with compartment syndrome), or caused a fall in haemoglobin level of ≥2 g/dL (≥1.24 mmol/L), or led to transfusion of ≥2 units of whole blood or red cells. All non major bleeding events were classified as minor bleeds; minor bleeds were subdivided in clinically relevant minor bleeds and not clinically relevant minor bleeds. A CRBE was defined as an acute or subacute clinically overt bleed that did not meet the criteria of a major bleed but either lead to hospital admission and/or a physician guided medical or surgical treatment and/or a change in antithrombotic therapy (including interruption or discontinuation of study drug).
Time Frame 6 month treatment period + 2 week post treatment follow up

Statistical Analysis Overview Comparison Group Selection 50mg Dabigatran Etexilate, 75mg Dabigatran Etexilate, 110mg Dabigatran Etexilate, 150mg Dabigatran Etexilate, Placebo
Comments The proportion of patients who reach this endpoint were analysed by a logistic model for linear trend (dose response). The null hypothesis is that the relationship between dose level (0mg, 50mg, 75mg, 110mg and 150mg) and the proportions of patients with major and clinically relevant minor bleeding is not linear (slope parameter = 0)
