The optimal anticoagulant therapy therefore needs to be applied to prevent the occurrence of a second stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. The oral anticoagulant warfarin has traditionally been used, but it is limited by its narrow efficacy window, complex pharmacokinetics, and multiple drug interactions, thus requiring frequent blood monitoring. New oral anticoagulants have recently been developed that target a specific coagulation component. Dabigatran (a direct thrombin inhibitor) and rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban (inhibitors of factor Xa) have advantages of rapid action time, short half-life, stable plasma concentration, and few drug interactions. Large randomized clinical trials and meta-analyses have recently been published on the efficacy and safety of these new oral anticoagulants. Based on the results obtained in recent clinical trials, we have revised the recommendations for selecting optimal anticoagulant therapy in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.

서론 우리나라병원기반등록자료에의하면심장성색전뇌졸중은점차증가하여최근에는전체허혈뇌졸중의약 20% 를차지하고있으며, 1 허혈뇌졸중환자의 19% 에서심방세동이있다. 2 심방세동은심장성색전뇌졸중의가장흔한위험인자로나이가들수록유병률이높아지므로, 3 향후심방세동으로인한허혈뇌졸중의발생은증가할것이다. 심방세동으로인한허혈뇌졸중이나일과성허혈발작이발생한경우, 출혈부담이나특별한금기사항이없다면이차예방을위한항응고제치료는반드시고려해야한다. 항응고제는전통적으로와파린을사용해왔으나최근효과와안전성이입증된새로운경구항응고제 (New oral anticoagulant, NOAC) 가개발, 승인되면서심방세동환자의뇌졸중이차예방을위한주요치료법으로자리잡고있다. 2015년 1월현재직접트롬빈억제제인다비가트란 (dabigatran) 과직접 Xa억제제인리바록사반 (rivaroxaban), 아픽사반 (apixaban), 에독사반 (edoxaban) 이대표적인약물이며, 국내에서다비가트란, 리바록사반, 그리고아픽사반은승인을받아임상진료실에서처방이가능하고, 에독사반은심사중이다. 뇌졸중임상연구센터 (Clinical Research Center for Stroke) 진료지침집필위원회 ( 이하집필위원회 ) 는 2007년 6월 30일까지발표된근거를반영하여제1판한국뇌졸중임상진료지침을 2009년 5월에발간하였다. 2009년뇌졸중이차예방진료지침에는새로운항응고제에대한권고안이포함되지않았는데 (Table 1), 그동안발표된새로운항응고제의임상시험, 세부분석, 그리고메타분석연구의근거가뇌졸중이차예방을위한항혈전제치료에중요한영향을줄수있다고판단하여진료지침을개정하기로결정하였다. 근거검색과근거수준평가방법진료지침개정과정은국제표준방법인 Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation (AGREE II) 에따라서진행하였 다. 지침개정에필요한모든증거를검색, 수집, 평가하여근거수준과권고수준을정하였다. 문헌수집은한국뇌졸중임상연구센터의표준방법에따라서검색기간, 발표형식, 중요단어, 검색방법, 데이터베이스종류를정하였다. 본지침개정을위하여 Pubmed, National Guideline Clearinghouse에서 2007년 7월부터 2014년 5 월까지심방세동 (atrial fibrillation) AND 뇌졸중 (stroke) OR 일과성허혈발작 (transient ischemic attack) AND 항응고제 (anticoagulant) AND 다비가트란 (Dabigatran) OR 리바록사반 (Rivaroxaban) OR 아픽사반 (Apixaban) OR 에독사반 (Edoxaban) AND 와파린 (Warfarin) AND 뇌졸중 (Stroke) 키워드를가진연구논문중메타분석 / 체계적분석논문, 무작위대조군비교연구논문으로제한하여자료를추출하였다. 일차검색으로심방세동환자에서항응고제사용에대한검색을진행하였고, 이차검색으로뇌졸중또는일과성허혈발작이있는환자로국한하여항응고제사용에대한검색을진행하였다. 이중카테터절제 (catheter ablation), 심장율동전환 (cardioversion), 판막치환술 (valve replacement surgery), 좌심방귀폐쇄술 (left atrial appendage closure) 을받은환자를대상으로한연구는배제하였다. 비판막성심방세동환자의이차예방진료지침개정을위해서앞에기술한검색방법에따라무작위대조군비교연구 8개, 메타분석 5개, 하위분석 4개, 국외진료지침 3개를추출하였다. 권고수준은근거수준에따라결정하였는데, 근거자료의수준을평가하기위해서는코크란 (Cochrane) 에서제공하는 GRADEpro를활용하였다. GRADEpro는 1) 디자인한계, 2) 이형성 (inconsistency), 3) 간접성 (indirectness), 4) 부정확성, 5) 출판비뚤림에대하여평가기준을제공하였고, 각항목당 0 ( 없음 ), 1 ( 중대함 ), 2 ( 매우중대함 ) 로구분하여, 근거의질을높음 (high), 중간 (moderate), 낮음 (low), 매우낮음 (very low) 으로평가한다. 본개정지침에서는국외진료지침 3개를제외한 17개의새로운근거자료에대해서 GRADEpro방법을적용하여근거의질을평가하였다. 집필위원회에서채택한개정권고안의근거수준과권고수준은 US Agency for Health Care Table 1. Previous Recommendations for Antithrombotic Management of Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (2009) 1 Warfarin treatment (INR 2.0-3.0) is recommended, unless contraindicated, in patients with ischemic stroke or TIA coexisting with sustained or paroxysmal AF (Evidence level: Ia, Recommendation grade: A). 2 If anticoagulants cannot be used, aspirin can be used instead (Evidence level: Ia, Recommendation grade: A) 3 A recommended daily dose of aspirin is 325mg.

Policy and Research에서제안한방식에기반을두었다 (Table 2). 각권고사항은수정델파이 (Delphi) 방법을통해뇌졸중임상연구센터에서지명한전문가합의에의해도출되었고뇌졸중임상연구센터운영위원회의검토와의견을반영하여수정과정을거친후최종권고안을마련하였다. 심방세동환자의항혈전제치료에대한새로운연구자료 1. 대규모임상연구 1.1. Atrial Fibrillation Clopidogrel Trial with Irbesartan for Prevention of Vascular Events (ACTIVE)-A 4 ACTIVE-A는항응고제치료가부적합한심방세동환자 7,554 명을대상으로아스피린단독요법과아스피린 / 클로피도그렐병합요법을비교한연구이다. 일차결과변수인뇌졸중, 심근경색, 비중추신경계전신색전증또는혈관성사망의복합사건연간발생률이병합요법군 6.8% 로단독요법군 7.6% 에비해유의하게낮았지만 (relative risk [RR], 0.89; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.81-0.98; p=0.01), 주요출혈부작용의연간발생률은병합요법군에서유의하게높았다 (2.0% versus 1.3%; RR [95% CI], 1.57 [1.29-1.92]; p<0.001). 아스피린단독투여에비해아스피린 / 클로피도그렐병용요법을했을때주요혈관사건발생의상대위험도가 0.89이지만절대위험도감소는 0.8%/ 년인반면주요출혈에대해절대위험도증가가 0.7%/ 년이다. 주요출혈과주요혈관사건발생을 합쳐서결과변수로보면상대위험도는 0.97로유익하다고판단하기힘들다. 병합요법이단독요법에비하여뇌졸중과혈관질환발생에대한우월한예방효과를입증한대규모연구였지만, 출혈부작용이높았던점은고려해야할부분이다. 1.2. Randomized Evaluation of Long-Term Anticoagulation Therapy (RE-LY) 5 RE-LY 임상시험은한가지이상위험인자가있는비판막성심방세동환자 18,113명을대상으로두가지용량의트롬빈억제제인다비가트란과와파린을비교한 PROBE(prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint) 연구이다. 다비가트란-110 mg, 다비가트란-150 mg, 와파린군에서뇌졸중또는전신색전증의연간발생빈도는각각 1.53%, 1.11%, 1.69% 였고, 주요출혈부작용의연간발생빈도는 2.71%, 3.11%, 3.36% 였다. 다비가트란 - 110 mg 은와파린에비하여뇌졸중또는전신색전증의발생에대한예방효과는비슷하였고 (RR [95% CI], 0.91 [0.74-1.11]; p<0.001 for non-inferiority; p=0.34 for superiority), 주요출혈은유의하게감소하였다 (p=0.03). 다비가트란 - 150 mg은와파린에비하여효과면에서는우월하였고 (RR [95% CI], 0.61 [0.53-0.82]; p<0.001 for superiority), 안전성은비슷하였다 (p=0.31). 또한, 인종, 지역에따른차이를분석한 RE-LY의세부연구에서 6 와파린대비다비가트란의효과와안전성은인종에따라큰차이가없었다. 단, 와파린을복용했을때출혈뇌졸중이비아시아인에비해서아시아인에서더많이발생하였는데다비가트란을복용했을때는두인종모두유 186 대한신경과학회지제 34 권제 3 호, 2016
의하게감소하였다. 1.3. Long-term Multicenter Extension of Dabigatran Treatment in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (RELY-ABLE) 7 RELY-ABLE 은 RE-LY의평균 2년동안추적관찰하고추가로 2.25년더연장하여다비가트란 110 mg과 150 mg을비교한장기추적관찰연구로연간뇌졸중혹은전신색전증빈도는다비가트란 - 110 mg, 다비가트란 - 150 mg에서각각연간 1.60%, 1.46% 로이전결과와유사하였으나, 주요출혈부작용은연간 2.99%, 3.74% 로다비가트란 - 150 mg에서유의하게증가하는경향을보였다. 1.4. Rivaroxaban Once Daily Oral Direct Factor Xa Inhibition Compared with Vitamin K Antagonism for Prevention of Stroke and Embolism Trial in Atrial Fibrillation (ROCKET AF) 8 ROCKET-AF는중등도이상위험성이있는심방세동환자 14,264명에서 Xa억제제인리바록사반 (20 mg, 1일 1회 ; 사구체여과율 30-49 ml/min인경우 15 mg, 1일 1회 ) 과와파린을비교한무작위이중맹검임상시험이다. ROCKET-AF는다른임상시험에비해뇌졸중이차예방에해당되는뇌졸중또는일과성허혈발작의과거력이있는환자가 52.4% 로다른연구에비해서높았고, 와파린군에서 INR이목표범위에유지된기간 (time in INR therapeutic range, TTR) 이 55% 로다른연구에비하여낮았다. 치료의도집단 (Intention-to-treat) 분석에서연간뇌졸중과전신색전증발생률은리바록사반 2.1%, 와파린 2.4% 로비열등성은입증하였으나우월성은입증하지못했다 (hazard ratio [HR], 0.88; [95% CI], 0.74-1.03; p<0.001 for noninferiority; p=0.12 for superiority). 그러나계획서순응집단 (per-protocol) 분석에서는리바록사반 1.7%/ 년, 와파린 2.2%/ 년으로비열등성과우월성이함께입증되었다 (HR [95% CI], 0.79 [0.66-0.96]; p<0.001 for non-inferiority; p=0.01 for superiority). 주요출혈과임상적으로의미있는출혈부작용은 14.9%, 14.5% 로두군에서차이가없었으나 (HR [95% CI], 1.03 [0.96-1.11]; p=0.44), 두개내출혈 (0.5% vs. 0.7%, p=0.02) 과치명적출혈 (0.2% vs. 0.5%, p=0.003) 은리바록사반에서유의하게낮았다. 1.5. Apixaban Versus Acetylsalicylic Acid [ASA] to Prevent Stroke in Atrial Fibrillation Patients Who Have Failed or Are Unsuitable for Vitamin K Antagonist Treatment (AVERROES) 9 AVERROES는와파린사용이어려운심방세동환자 5,599명에서아스피린과 Xa억제제인아픽사반 (5 mg, 1일 2회 ; 80세이상, 체중 60kg 이하, 혈장크레아티닌 >1.5 mg/dl 중두가지이상에해당되는경우 2.5 mg, 1일 2회 ) 을비교한이중맹검연구이다. 아스피린, 아픽사반군에서연간뇌졸중또는전신색전증의발생빈도는각각 3.7%, 1.6% 로아픽사반군에서유의하게감소하여 (HR [95% CI], 0.45 [0.32-0.62]; p<0.001) 중간분석후종료되었다. 주요출혈부작용은아스피린, 아픽사반각각 1.2%, 1.4% 로비슷하였다 (HR [95% CI], 1.13 [0.74-1.75]; p=0.57). 1.6. Apixaban for Reduction in Stroke and Other Thromboembolic Events in Atrial Fibrillation (ARISTOTLE) 10 ARISTOTLE은중등도이상의위험성이있는심방세동환자 18,201명에서와파린과 Xa억제제인아픽사반 (5 mg, 1일 2회 ; 80 세이상, 체중 60kg 이하, 혈장크레아티닌 >1.5 mg/dl 중두가지이상에해당되는경우 2.5 mg, 1일 2회 ) 을비교한이중맹검연구이다. 연간뇌졸중또는전신색전증의발생빈도는아픽사반, 와파린의경우각각 1.27%, 1.60% 로아픽사반군에서유의하게감소하였고 (HR [95% CI], 0.79 [0.66-0.95]; p<0.001 for noninferiority; p=0.01 for superiority), 주요출혈부작용또한 2.13%, 3.09% 로아픽사반군에서유의하게감소하였다 (HR [95% CI], 0.69 [0.60-0.80]; p<0.001). 아픽사반이와파린에비하여뇌졸중또는전신색전증의발생에대한예방효과와안전성에대해열등하지않을뿐만아니라우월함을입증한대규모연구이다. 1.7. Effective Anticoagulation with Factor Xa Next Generation in Atrial Fibrillation-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 48 (ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48) 11 ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48은중등도이상의위험성이있는심방세동환자 21,105명에서와파린과 Xa억제제인에독사반을비교한이중맹검연구이다. 연간뇌졸중또는전신색전증발생빈도는에독사반 - 30 mg, 에독사반 - 60 mg, 와파린의경우각각 1.61%, 1.18%, 1.50% 로비슷하였고 ( 에독사반 - 30 mg: HR [95% CI], 1.07 [0.87-1.31]; p=0.005 for noninferiority; 에독사반 - 60 mg: HR [95% CI], 0.79 [0.63-0.99]; p<0.001 for noninferiority), 주요출혈부작용은 1.61%, 2.75%, 3.43% 로에독사반군에서의미있게낮았다 ( 에독사반 - 30 mg: HR [95% CI], 0.47 [0.41-0.55]; p<0.001; 에독사반 - 60 mg: HR [95% CI], 0.80 [0.71-0.91]; p<0.001). 에독사반이와파린에비하여뇌졸중또는전신색전증의발생에대한예방효과와안전성이열등하지않음을입증한대규 J Korean Neurol Assoc Volume 34 No. 3, 2016 187

RE-LY, ROCKET AF, ARISTOTLE, ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 임상시험에대한메타분석에서 15 와파린과비교하여새로운항응고제의뇌졸중과전신색전증상대위험도는 0.81 (95% CI 0.73-0.91; p<0.0001) 로유의한감소효과를보였다. 두개내출혈은새로운항응고제에서의미있게감소하였으나 (RR 0.48, 95% CI 0.39-0.59), 위장관내출혈은증가하였다 (RR 1.25, 95% CI 1.01-1.55). 새로운저용량항응고제는뇌졸중또는전신색전증발생에대하여와파린과비슷한감소효과를보였고, 출혈부작용의감소와허혈뇌졸중의증가경향이동시에나타났다. 3. 새로운항응고제의뇌졸중이차예방효과에대한세부분석연구 150 mg, 와파린군에서 2.32%, 2.07%, 2.78% 로비슷하였고, 주요출혈부작용은와파린에비해다비가트란 - 110 mg 군에서유의하게감소하였고, 다비가트란 - 150 mg 군도비슷하였다. 이는와파린과비교하여다비가트란이이차예방효과와안전성에서열등하지않다고해석할수있다. ROCKET-AF 연구에서 17 뇌졸중또는일과성허혈발작의기왕력이있는환자군의연간뇌졸중또는전신색전증발생빈도는리바록사반, 와파린군에서각각 2.79%, 2.96% 였고, 주요출혈과임상적으로의미있는출혈부작용은 13.31%, 13.37% 로비슷하였다. 즉, 와파린과비교하여리바록사반이이차예방효과와안전성이열등하지않았다. AVERROES 연구에서는 18 뇌졸중또는일과성허혈발작의기왕력이있는환자군의연간뇌졸중또는전신색전증발생빈도가아픽사반, 아스피린군에서각각 2.39%, 9.16% 로아픽사반군에서더낮았고, 주요출혈부작용빈도는기왕력이있는군에서더높았으나각치료사이에는차이가없었다. 이는아스피린과비교하여아픽사반이이차예방효과가우월함을시사한다. 아픽사반을이용한또다른주요임상시험인 ARISTOTLE 연구에서 19 뇌졸중또는일과성허혈발작기왕력이있는환자의뇌졸중또는전신색전증발생빈도는아픽사반, 와파린군에서각각 2.46, 3.24/100 patient-year로절대감소율이 0.77 (95% CI -0.08-1.63) 였고, 주요출혈부작용은아픽사반이와파린에비해 1.07/100 patient-year (95% CI 0.09-2.04) 의절대위험도감소를보였다. 이는아픽사반의이차예방효과와안전성이우월하다고해석할수있겠다.

Revised Recommendations for Antithrombotic Management of Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack 1 For patients who had ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack with persistent or paroxysmal nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, oral anticoagulant therapy with warfarin, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, or apixaban is recommended for the prevention of recurrent stroke if not contraindicated (Evidence level: Ia, Recommendation grade: A). The selection of an anticoagulation therapy should be individualized based on clinical characteristics, patient preference, and potential for drug interactions (Recommendation grade: GPP). (New recommendation) 2 For patients treated with warfarin, adjusted-dose warfarin therapy targeting INR 2.0-3.0 is recommended (Evidence level: Ia, Recommendation grade: A). (Modified recommendation) 3 For patients treated with new oral anticoagulants, renal function should be evaluated prior to initiation of new oral anticoagulant. For patients with severe renal impairment, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and apixaban are not recommended (Evidence level: III, Recommendation grade: B). (New recommendation) 4 For patients who had a cardioembolic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack despite adequate anticoagulation with warfarin, warfarin therapy targeting a higher INR, addition of an antiplatelet agent, or switch to one of dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and apixaban can be considered. (Evidence level: IV, Recommendation grade: C). (Revised recommendation) 5 Dabigatran, rivaroxaban, or apixaban can be considered in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who have a history of intracranial hemorrhage, or are at high risk of intracranial hemorrhage (Evidence level: III, Recommendation grade: B). (New recommendation) 6 For patients with ischemic stroke or TIA and atrial fibrillation who are not able to use oral anticoagulants, antiplatelet agent should be considered (Evidence level: I, Recommendation level A). Aspirin monotherapy or aspirin plus clopidogrel combination therapy can be considered, and the selection of antiplatelet therapy should be based on balancing the risks of ischemic events and major bleedings (Evidence level: Ib, Recommendation grade: A).
