Preventing stroke and systemic embolism in adults with atrial fibrillation who can't use oral blood thinners
Official title: A Master Protocol for a Phase 3, Randomized, Multicenter, Double-blind Study to Assess Stroke and Systemic Embolism Prevention With REGN7508 and REGN9933, Monoclonal Antibodies Against Factor XI, Versus Placebo in Participants With Atrial Fibrillation for Whom Oral Anticoagulation is Unsuitable (ROXI-INCLINE)
Run by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals · NCT07430956 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial tests two experimental drugs, REGN7508 and REGN9933, to see if they reduce ischemic stroke or systemic embolism in adults with atrial fibrillation who cannot or choose not to take oral blood thinners.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with atrial fibrillation at moderate-to-high stroke risk who, after shared decision-making with their clinician, are judged unsuitable for oral anticoagulant therapy per the protocol are the intended participants.
✕Probably not a fit
People who can take standard oral anticoagulants, as well as those with mechanical heart valves, very recent ischemic stroke, or uncontrolled hypertension, are unlikely to benefit or may be excluded.

What this trial studies
This Phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled trial compares REGN7508 and REGN9933, given separately, against placebo in adults with atrial fibrillation judged unsuitable for oral anticoagulation. Eligible participants meet defined CHA2DS2-VA stroke-risk criteria and have a shared decision with their clinician that oral anticoagulants are inappropriate. The study tracks ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, and safety outcomes to compare event rates and side effects between each investigational drug and placebo. Enrollment occurs at several U.S. clinical research centers.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, these drugs could provide an alternative way to lower stroke and embolism risk for people with AF who cannot take standard oral blood thinners.
How similar studies have gone: Other anticoagulant approaches targeting similar clotting pathways have shown promise in early-phase trials, but large phase-3 evidence for non-oral alternatives is still limited.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. Has AF or flutter (paroxysmal or persistent), not considered to be secondary to a reversible cause 2. At moderate to high risk for stroke defined as: 1. CHA2DS2-VA \[C: Congestive heart failure; H: Hypertension; A2: Age ≥75 years (double points); D: Diabetes mellitus; S2: Stroke or TIA or Systemic embolism (double points); V: Vascular disease; A: Age 65-74 years\] score ≥4 OR 2. CHA2DS2-VA score of 3 AND at least 1 enrichment criteria as described in the protocol 3. Shared decision making between the participant and provider determining that the bleeding risk of Oral Anticoagulant (OAC) therapy outweighs the benefits, making the participant unsuitable for OAC therapy as described in the protocol Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. Has a mechanical heart valve prosthesis (Note: transcatheter aortic valve replacement is not an exclusion) 2. Had an ischemic stroke within 2 days prior to randomization 3. Has persistent, uncontrolled hypertension (per investigator's discretion) 4. Has a history of Central Nervous System (CNS) bleeding within 30 days prior to randomization 5. Has a life expectancy less than 12 months 6. Has participated in a prior Factor XI (FXI) inhibitor study Note: Other protocol-defined Inclusion/ Exclusion criteria apply
