A Study of Milvexian in Participants After a Recent Acute Coronary Syndrome (LIBREXIA-ACS)
STUDY OVERVIEW
This study sponsored by Janssen aims to assess whether milvexian, in combination with standard-of-care, is more effective than placebo in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), encompassing cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and ischemic stroke.
STUDY GOALS
