Inclusion Criteria

1. Boys or girls 2 to 8 years of age with single ventricle physiology and who have completed the initial Fontan procedure within 4 months prior to enrollment
2. Considered to be clinically stable by the investigator and able to tolerate oral or enteral administration of a suspension formulation and oral/enteral feedings
3. Satisfactory initial post-Fontan transthoracic echocardiographic screening as defined in the
Post-Fontan Echocardiographic Examination Research Protocol
4. Parent/legally acceptable representative must sign an informed consent form (ICF) and child assent will also be provided, if applicable, according to local requirements

Exclusion Criteria

1. Evidence of thrombosis, including those that are asymptomatic confirmed by post-Fontan procedure transthoracic echocardiogram, or other imaging techniques, during the screening period of the study
2. History of gastrointestinal disease or surgery associated with clinically relevant impaired absorption
3. History of or signs/symptoms suggestive of protein-losing enteropathy
4. Active bleeding or high risk for bleeding contraindicating antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy,
including a history of intracranial bleeding
5. Indication for anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy other than current study.
6. Chronic use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
7. Platelet count <50 x 109/L at screening
8. Creatinine clearance (CrCl) <30 mL/min/1.73m2
9. Known clinically significant liver disease (eg, cirrhosis, acute hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >3x upper limit of normal (ULN) with concurrent total bilirubin
>1.5x ULN with direct bilirubin >20% of the total at screening)
10. Known contraindication to ASA (subjects participating in Part B only)
11. Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to rivaroxaban or its excipients
12. Inability to cooperate with study procedures
13. Combined P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and strong cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitors (such as but not limited to ketoconazole, telithromycin, or protease inhibitors) use within 4 days before enrollment, or planned use during the study. Itraconazole use within 7 days before enrollment or
planned use during the study.
14. Combined P-gp and strong CYP3A4 inducers (such as but not limited to rifampin/rifampicin,
rifabutin, rifapentine, phenytoin, phenobarbital, carbamazepine, or St. John's Wort) use within
2 weeks before enrollment, or planned use during the study.
15. Planned use of drugs that are moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors (such as erythromycin) during the Initial PK, PD, and Safety Assessment Period of Part A only
16. Participation in a clinical study with an investigational drug or medical device in the previous 30 days prior to enrollment
17. Any condition for which, in the opinion of the investigator, participation would not be in the best
interest of the subject (eg, compromise the well-being) or that could prevent, limit, or confound the
protocol-specified assessments
18. Family member of an employee of the investigator or study site with direct involvement in the
proposed study or other studies under the direction of that investigator or study site.
