Princeton, NJ - Bristol-Myers Squibb Company and Pfizer Inc. announced today that 22 abstracts (late-breaking, rapid-fire, oral and poster presentations) will be presented at the ESC Congress 2015, to be held August 29 to September 2 in London, United Kingdom. The new data reinforce the Alliance’s commitment to the ongoing evaluation of Eliquis in both the nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) patient populations.
In addition, data from the AEGEAN (Assessment of an Educational and Guidance Programme for Eliquis Adherence in Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation) study evaluating adherence among NVAF patients further extends the Alliance’s commitment to patient care.
“The Bristol-Myers Squibb and Pfizer Alliance is pleased to share 22 abstracts, which include important Eliquis data from both clinical trials and real-world analyses, at one of the world’s largest and most influential cardiovascular meetings,” said Douglas Manion, M.D., head of specialty development, Bristol-Myers Squibb.
“Clinical trial data are important in evaluating a medication’s efficacy and safety under well-controlled circumstances, and their findings can be supplemented by real-world data on the use of a product for approved indications in routine clinical practice,” said Rory O’Connor, M.D., senior vice president and head of Global Medical Affairs, Global Innovative Pharmaceuticals Business, Pfizer Inc.
The complete list of Bristol-Myers Squibb and Pfizer Alliance presentations is included below. Abstracts can be accessed on the ESC Congress 2015 website.
