Comparison of Clopidogrel-based Antiplatelet Agent Treatment and Aspirin Plus Low Dose Rivaroxaban Therapy
Optimal Strategy for Treatment of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease - Comparison of Clopidogrel-based Antiplatelet Agent Treatment Versus Aspirin Plus Low Dose Rivaroxaban Therapy
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Sept 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The study aims to conduct a randomized controlled trial among adults aged 19 years or older who have experienced acute myocardial infarction at least one year prior, or who have other comorbidities such as peripheral arterial disease or multiple cardiovascular diseases, and have consented to participate in the study. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a group that maintains antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel or clopidogrel alone, or a group that maintains combined antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy with aspirin and low-dose rivaroxaban in a 1:1 ratio. The study aims to demonstrate that maintaining clopidogrel-based antiplatelet therapy is not clinically inferior to maintaining combined therapy with aspirin and low-dose rivaroxaban.

- Patients who require discontinuation of antiplatelet therapy for more than 3 months due to surgery or procedure
- Concomitant use of the following contraindicated drugs: other P2Y12 inhibitors (prasugrel or ticagrelor); cytochrome P450 2C19 inhibitors (fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, or voriconazole); probenecid; high-dose methotrexate (≥15 mg/week); lithium.
Other illness
- History of serious hypersensitivity reactions to aspirin, clopidogrel, or prasugrel.
- Patients with coagulation disorders or liver diseases related to coagulation, as well as patients with moderate (Child Pugh B) and severe (Child Pugh C) liver dysfunction.
- In cases of active clinical bleeding at the time of study registration.
- Individuals with an expected lifespan of less than 3 years due to reasons other than cardiovascular disease.
Lab values
