Directly from ESC 2024 - OCEANIC-AF: Asundexian Patients Have Nearly 4x Stroke, Embolism Risk vs Apixaban Patients

Presented at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2024, results of the study demonstrate the factor XIa inhibitor failed to achieve its primary endpoint but was associated with a reduction in major bleeding events relative to apixaban.
