NCT00249795
Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study was to determine if Irbesartan compared to Placebo would reduce the risk of vascular events such as heart attack, stroke, non-cerebral thromboembolic event and death in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and with at least one major risk of vascular events.
Detailed Description:
ACTIVE I was one of the 3 separate but related trials of the ACTIVE program conducted in AF patients at risk of vascular events.
Patients were enrolled first into one of the 2 parallel trials of the ACTIVE program evaluating Clopidogrel:
* ACTIVE A comparing clopidogrel + acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and ASA alone
* ACTIVE W comparing clopidogrel + ASA and oral anticoagulant (OAC).
Then those satisfying additional criteria related to blood pressure and angiotensin receptor blocking agents were re-randomized in the two ACTIVE I arms according to a separate randomization list.
