The Long Term Multi-Center Extension of Dabigatran Treatment in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (RELY-ABLE) study To reviewers and moderators: These are preliminary slides. The figures are going to be upgraded this week and I can send these to you if you email me at connostu@phri.ca
RE-LY: Results with DabigatranEtexilate • Dabigatran (DE) 150 mg BID and 110 mg BID versus warfarin • An 18,113 Patient Global Clinical Trial Mean follow up 2 years • DE 150 reduced stroke/SEE by 35% versus warfarin • DE 110 non-inferior to warfarin, with 20% reduction in major bleeding • Greater than 50% reduction in intracranial bleeding with both doses compared to warfarin • Regulatory approval in 79 countries as of November 2012 Reference
RELY-ABLE Design • Descriptive study to assess long-term efficacy and safety of two doses of DE • 28 months of additional treatment with DE following RE-LY • Patients eligible if completed RE-LY • Alive and on study medication • DE blinded dose continued in RELY-ABLE • No event adjudication • Follow up stopped if study medication discontinued
Data Analysis Primary analysis RELY-ABLE patients during RELY-ABLE period of follow up Secondary Analyses RELY-ABLE patients followed from beginning of RE-LY to end of RELY-ABLE All dabigatran patients, from beginning of RE-LY to the end of RELY-ABLE
RE-LY Baseline Characteristics: Patients in enrolling or not enrolling in RELY-ABLE
Event Rates during RE-LY: Enrolled versus not enrolled patients
Ischemic Events: RELY-ABLE patients in RELY-ABLE follow up period
Stroke or SEE RELY-ABLE Patients in RELY-ABLE Period
Stroke or Systemic Embolism: RE-LY + RELY-ABLE periods All Dabigatran RELY-ABLE Only
Bleeding: RELY-ABLE patients in RELY-ABLE follow up period RELY-ABLE Period Only
Major Bleeding RELY-ABLE Patients in RELY-ABLE Period
Major Bleeding: RELY-ABLE Only All Dabigatran
Total Mortality: RE-LY + RELY-ABLE Periods All Dabigatran patients

Conclusions • During 2.3 years of treatment on dabigatran, after RE-LY, rates of stroke and major bleeding remain low on dabigatran • Including all dabigatran follow up, there is a dose response effect • With dabigatran 150 mg compared to 110 mg • 22% reduction in ischemic stroke • 20% increase in major bleeding • Very similar mortality
