Prospective Real-world Registry Describing Treatment Regimens

Real-world Prospective Registry to Describe the Current Treatment Patterns With Oral Anticoagulant and Antiplatelet Agents Association in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

This study is to describe the initial anti-thrombotic treatment strategy prescribed to the AF patient population undergoing PCI by using drug class description.

Coordinator of project has strong expertise in cardiovascular research and especially in ACS, PCI and antiplatelet therapy. The group led by pr Bonello has published several articles (appendix 3) including the VASP studies which have been presented at major cardiologic congresses (late breaking trials ACC 2007, AHA 2008, TCT 2011, EuroPCR 2010) including physicians and biologists. The group is composed of international experts in this research field (Pr Bonello, Pr Cuisset, Dr Barragan, Pr Lemesle). Additionally, coordinator center has a strong expertise in clinical research and a methodological support will be provided by the Clinical Research Platform of the AP-HM (responsible: Prof. Pascal Auquier, medical referent: Dr Karine Baumstarck).

The project brings together investigators that have been previously involved in many clinical studies in the field of ACS and PCI. In particular they have joined forces on multicenter trials leaded by the cardiology department of the Hôpital Universitaire Nord de Marseille (the VASP studies, the Early clinical trial) and they have regular meetings to share scientific data and research program design and advancement. There is a good capacity and ability of recruitment by the partner centers. The procedures to perform in this project are very simple and the disease is frequent. These are good criteria for the feasibility.
