A Comparison of Extended Versus Conventional Duration of Enoxaparin Prophylaxis (i.e., Preventive Treatment) for Venous Thromboembolism (VTE, i.e., Blood Clots in the Veins) and Bleeding Event Risk in a Population With Acute Medical Illness
- Conditions
- Venous Thromboembolism
- Registration Number
- NCT05819112
- Lead Sponsor
- Sanofi
- Brief Summary
Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is associated with an increase in risk of mortality and long-term disability and is a major contributor to global disease burden. Participants hospitalized with an acute medical illness are at increased risk of VTE.
This study a non-interventional study which analyzes data already collected in the Optum US clinical database. Its aim is to compare conventional versus extended duration prophylaxis with enoxaparin on the incidence of VTE and bleeding events in participants hospitalized for acute medical illness. The first date of enoxaparin treatment will be the index date.
- Detailed Description
The study population will be developed from the Optum Clinical database in the United States, representing routine clinical practice. Study population will comprise of participants hospitalized for an acute medical illness receiving enoxaparin during hospitalization. The first date of enoxaparin treatment will be the index date. The study period will be from February 2010 to September 2021. Participants will be followed for 90 days.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in the incidence of VTE, from index date to Day 90 Retrospective data analysis from February, 2010 to September, 2021, with this endpoint evaluated up to 90 days after the individual participant's index date. VTE event will be identified via an algorithm based on the International Classification of Disease-10th revision and 9th revision (ICD-10 and ICD-9) codes.
Change in the incidence of major bleeding, from index date to Day 90 Retrospective data analysis from February, 2010 to September, 2021, with this endpoint evaluated up to 90 days after the individual participant's index date. Major bleeding event will be identified via an algorithm based on the International Classification of Disease-10th revision and 9th revision (ICD-10 and ICD-9) codes.
