The efficacy and safety of edoxaban has not been adequately studied in Asians versus non-Asians, who are quite different physiologically from each other. Compared with non-East Asian patients, the East Asia patients were twice as likely to have the reasons for requiring dose reduction of edoxaban, such as CrCl 30-50 ml/min (30.0% and 18.2%, respectively), weight ≤60 kg (30.6% and 7.8%, respectively), or concomitant use of verapamil or quinidine (P-gp inhibitors, 6.6% and 3.3%, respectively). This study is aimed to evaluate the safety of the low dose edoxaban therapy in patients with high bleeding risk and non-valvular AF in the real world population of Korea.
