Brief Summary

A phase III, randomised, parallel-group, double-blind, active controlled study to investigate the ef ficacy and safety of two different dose regimens of orally administered dabigatran etexilate capsule s \[150 or 220 mg once daily starting with a half dose (i.e.75 or 110 mg) on the day of surgery\] comp ared to subcutaneous enoxaparin 40 mg once daily for 6 to 10 days, in prevention of venous thromboem bolism in patients with primary elective total knee replacement surgery.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Total Venous Thromboembolic Event and All-cause Mortality During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

Total Venous Thromboembolic Event (VTE) includes both proximal and distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (detected by routine bilateral venography), symptomatic DVT (confirmed by venous compression ultrasound, venography or autopsy) and pulmonary embolism (PE) (confirmed by pulmonary V-Q scintigraphy, chest x-ray, pulmonary angiography, spiral CT or autopsy).

All of these components and all deaths were centrally adjudicated by the VTE events committee, which was not aware of the treatment allocation of the patients.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Volume of Blood LossDay 1

Volume of blood loss for treated and operated patients during surgery.

Number of Participants With Proximal Deep Vein Thrombosis During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

Proximal Deep Vein Thrombosis as adjudicated by the VTE events committee

Number of Participants With Major Venous Thromboembolic Event and Venous Thromboembolic Event-related Mortality During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

Major Venous Thromboembolic Event (VTE) is defined as proximal DVT and PE, as adjudicated by the VTE events committee

Number of Participants With Total Deep Vein Thrombosis During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

Total Deep Vein Thrombosis as adjudicated by the VTE events committee

Number of Participants With Symptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

Symptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis, confirmed by venous compression ultrasound, venography or autopsy, and as adjudicated by the VTE events committee

Number of Participants With Pulmonary Embolism During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

Pulmonary embolism confirmed by pulmonary V-Q scintigraphy, chest x-ray, pulmonary angiography, spiral CT or autopsy, and as adjudicated by the VTE events committee

Number of Participants Who Died During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

All cause death, as adjudicated by the VTE events committee

Number of Participants With Total Venous Thromboembolic Event (VTE) and All-cause Mortality During the Follow-up Period3 months

Total Venous Thromboembolic Event (VTE) includes both proximal and distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (detected by routine bilateral venography), symptomatic DVT (confirmed by venous compression ultrasound, venography or autopsy) and pulmonary embolism (PE) (confirmed by pulmonary V-Q scintigraphy, chest x-ray, pulmonary angiography, spiral CT or autopsy).

Number of Participants With Bleeding Events (Defined According to Modified McMaster Criteria) During Treatment PeriodFirst administration until 6-10 days

Major bleeding events were defined as

* fatal

* clinically overt associated with loss of haemoglobin \>=20g/L in excess of what was expected

* clinically overt leading to the transfusion of \>=2 units packed cells or whole blood in excess of what was expected

* symptomatic retroperitoneal, intracranial, intraocular or intraspinal

* requiring treatment cessation

* leading to re-operation

Clinically-relevant was defined as

* spontaneous skin hematoma greater than or equal to 25 cm²

* wound hematoma greater than or equal to 100 cm²

* spontaneous nose bleed lasting longer than 5 min

* macroscopic hematuria spontaneous or lasting longer than 24 hours if associated with an intervention

* spontaneous rectal bleeding (more than a spot on toilet paper)

* gingival bleeding lasting longer than 5 min

* any other bleeding event considered clinically relevant by the investigator

Minor bleeding events were defined as all other bleeding events that did not fulfil the criteria from above.

Blood TransfusionDay 1

Blood transfusion for treated and operated patients on Day of surgery.

Laboratory AnalysesFirst administration to end of study

Frequency of patients with possible clinically significant abnormalities.
