TACT is a "real world" randomized controlled trial of tecarfarin, a novel vitamin K antagonist, vs. warfarin. The quality of anticoagulation control will be compared for the two groups of subjects who require chronic oral anticoagulation for a broad panel of indications.
This will be a randomized, parallel-arm, open-label study comparing the safety and efficacy of tecarfarin and warfarin in approximately 1000 subjects who have an indication for chronic oral anticoagulation. The study will be fully enriched with subjects who are taking at least one CYP2C9-interacting medication and have either chronic kidney disease stage 3 or 4 and/or a genetic variant allele for CYP2C9. The study will be conducted at approximately 140 sites with experience in the management of anticoagulation subjects. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either tecarfarin or warfarin for a period ranging from 6 months to a maximum of approximately 24 months.

Percentage of time in the therapeutic range (TTR) for tecarfarin vs. warfarin for each treatment group in the randomized population
Interpolated and observed TTR will be calculated for the two treatment groups
Time frame: From the date of randomization until study termination, up to 24 months (1st month not included)
Percentage TTR for tecarfarin vs. warfarin in the sub-population of patients who are taking a CYP2C9-interacting medication and have a CYP2C9 genotype variant allele
Interpolated and observed TTR will be calculated for the two treatment groups
Time frame: From the date of randomization until study termination, up to 24 months (1st month not included)
Percentage TTR for tecarfarin vs warfarin for the sub-population of patients who are taking a CYP2C9-interacting medication and have chronic kidney disease stage 3 or 4 (eGFR ≥ 15 to <60 mL/min/1.73 m2)
Interpolated and observed TTR will be calculated for the two treatment groups
Time frame: From the date of randomization until study termination, up to 24 months (1st month not included)
