The Nordic Aortic Valve Intervention Trial 4 (NOTION-4)
Sponsor: Rigshospitalet, Denmark
Summary
A randomized clinical trial investigating the incidence and temporal dynamics of subclinical leaflet thickening by cardiac CT in transcatheter bioprosthetic aortic valves in patients randomised to different anti-thrombotic strategies. Additionally, this study aims to examine a possible association between HALT and thromboembolic events.

Interventions
Rivaroxaban
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) treatment will encompass any of the approved drugs: Rivaroxaban, Edoxaban, Dabigatranetexilat, and Apixaban (Table 1). The DOAC dosage will be adjusted according to kidney function (Table 1) and may be adjusted during the study period according to potential changes in guideline recommendations or if new-onset AF would occur in the follow-up period. The specific DOAC prescribed will be determined by the treating physician. If the patient has already been prescribed Marevan before the aortic valve intervention, the patient will continue this medication following the procedure as an oral anticoagulant treatment, which is administered according to current guidelines.
Acetylsalicylic acid
Antiplatelets decrease platelet aggregation and inhibit thrombus formation. In NOTION-4 acetylsalicylic acid (75 mg once a day) is used as first line choice. For participants who are allergic to acetylsalicylic acid, clopidogrel (75 mg once a day) will be used. If the patient has already been prescribed Clopidogrel before the aortic valve intervention e.g. due to apoplexia, the patient will continue this medication following the procedure as an antiplatelet treatment, which is administered according to current guidelines.
