About this trial
This study evaluates whether fexuprazan is effective in preventing upper gastrointestinal bleeding and related upper gastrointestinal clinical events in high bleeding risk patients who require dual antiplatelet therapy after coronary stent implantation.
A total of 400 participants at a single center will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio within 48 hours after stent implantation to receive either fexuprazan 40 milligrams or lansoprazole 30 milligrams once daily for 6 months. The study will compare upper gastrointestinal clinical events during follow-up

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Time from randomization to first occurrence of a composite endpoint of upper gastrointestinal clinical events during the treatment period
This composite outcome includes: 1. Confirmed upper gastrointestinal bleeding (confirmed by upper endoscopy or computed tomography); 2. Presumed upper gastrointestinal bleeding with a documented decrease in hemoglobin of ≥ 2 g/dL or decrease in hematocrit of ≥ 10% from baseline; 3. Symptomatic gastroduodenal ulcer confirmed by endoscopy or computed tomography without evidence of bleeding; 4. Persistent abdominal pain or dyspeptic symptoms with multiple erosive lesions confirmed by endoscopy 5. Gastroduodenal perforation or obstruction.
Secondary outcomes
Time from randomization to first occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux disease, as evidenced by symptomatic endoscopically-confirmed erosive esophagitis.
Time from randomization of first occurrence of low gastrointestinal bleeding (conformed by the endoscopy or CT scan)
Time from randomization to first occurrence of any GI bleeding
BARC bleeding (BARC type 0, 1, 2, 3, 5)
