Cerebrovascular Events in 21 105 Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Randomized to Edoxaban Versus Warfarin
Stroke 45:2372-2378, Giugliano, R.P.,et al, 2014
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
In patients with atrial fibrillation, once-daily edoxaban was as effective as warfarin in preventing all strokes, with significant reductions in various subtypes of intracranial bleeding. Ischemic cerebrovascular event rates were similar with high-dose edoxaban and warfarin, whereas low-dose edoxaban was less effective than warfarin.
