Well yes and no. The RE-LY trial had three arms: dose-adjusted warfarin, 110mg dabigatran BID and 150mg dabigatran BID. The risk of MI was statistically significantly higher in the high-dose dabigatran group (but overall, it was an incredibly tiny difference in an 18,000+ patient study). However, it's not clear whether that difference is due to dabigatran increasing the risk on its own, or if its because warfarin is itself better than dabigatran at preventing MIs.
When you look at the overall results though, its almost a moot point. The high-dose dabigatran group was much better than warfarin at preventing thromboembolic strokes in patients with A-fib, so the few additional MIs may come out in the wash, so to speak. The low-dose group of dabigatran was non-inferior (and non-superior) to warfarin for the same endpoint and also didn't have the increased risk of MI.
So, it comes down to a few things: Phase IV data from Europe/Canada might show whether the risk of MI is something that people actually have to worry about. Then, if it turns out it is something that people have to worry about, is that risk negated by the quality of life benefits, lower risk of stroke, lower risk of bleeding, etc. that can be provided by dabigatran. Finally, depending on what dose the FDA approves for use (if they do at all) it might be a moot point.
