BACKGROUND: Patients receiving left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support require long-term anticoagulation to reduce the risk of thromboembolic complications. Apixaban is a direct oral anticoagulant that has become first-line therapy; however, its safety in LVAD recipients has not been well described.
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to investigate whether, in patients with a fully magnetically levitated LVAD, treatment with apixaban would be feasible and comparable with respect to safety and freedom from the primary composite outcome of death or major hemocompatibility-related adverse events (HRAEs) (stroke, device thrombosis, major bleeding, aortic root thrombus, and arterial non-central nervous system thromboembolism) as compared with treatment with warfarin.
METHODS: The DOAC LVAD (Evaluation of the Hemocompatibility of the Direct Oral Anti-Coagulant Apixaban in Left Ventricular Assist Devices) trial was a phase 2, open label trial of LVAD recipients randomized 1:1 to either apixaban 5 mg twice daily or warfarin therapy. All patients were required to take low-dose aspirin. Patients were followed up for 24 weeks to evaluate the primary composite outcome.
RESULTS: A total of 30 patients were randomized: 14 patients to warfarin and 16 patients to apixaban. The median patient age was 60 years (Q1-Q3: 52-71 years), and 47% were Black patients. The median time from LVAD implantation to randomization was 115 days (Q1-Q3: 56-859 days). At 24 weeks, the primary composite outcome occurred in no patients receiving apixaban and in 2 patients (14%) receiving warfarin (P = 0.12); these 2 patients experienced major bleeding from gastrointestinal sources.
CONCLUSIONS: Anticoagulation with apixaban was feasible in patients with an LVAD without an excess of HRAEs or deaths. This study informs future pivotal clinical trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of apixaban in LVAD recipients.
