  • Clinical Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    clinically relevant bleeding adverse events
  • Laboratory marked abnormalities [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    liver enzyme and/or bilirubin abnormalities
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate safety of fixed doses DU-176b compared to warfarin in subjects with atrial fibrillation.

  • Incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    stroke, SEE, myocardial infarction (MI), cardiovascular death, and hospitalization for any cardiac condition
  • Effects on biomarkers of thrombus formation [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    Absolute values at each evaluation and changes from baseline in D-dimer, Prothrombin Fragments 1 and 2 (F1 and F2)
  • Pharmacokinetics of DU-176b including known metabolites in subjects receiving DU-176b [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    Absolute values at each evaluation and changes from baseline in plasma DU-176b and known metabolite concentrations
  • Effects on pharmacodynamic biomarkers in subjects receiving DU-176b [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    Absolute values at each evaluation and changes from baseline in biomarkers (anti-Factor Xa [FXa] activity, endogenous FXa activity, PT, INR, prothrombinase induced clotting time [PiCT], thrombin generation using the calibrated automated thrombogram [CAT-TG]
The secondary objectives are evaluate fixed dose regimens of DU176b with respect to major cardiac adverse events, and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of DU-176b.

A Study to Assess the Safety of a Potential New Drug in Comparison to the Standard Practice of Dosing With Warfarin for Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation
A Phase 2, Randomized, Parallel Group, Multi Center, Multi National Study for the Evaluation of Safety of Four Fixed Dose Regimens of DU-176b in Subjects With Non- Valvular Atrial Fibrillation

This study is to assess the safety of a potential new drug DU-176b for the prevention of stroke/systemic embolic event (SEE) in individuals with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). The duration is 3 months of treatment and a 30 day follow-up visit.
