In patients with high-risk atrial fibrillation (AFib) and stable coronary artery disease, endoxaban monotherapy when given as a long-term antithrombotic therapy was associated with better net clinical benefit than edoxaban plus a single antiplatelet agent, based on findings from the EPIC-CAD trial presented at ESC Congress 2024 in London and simultaneously (..)
