- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: The primary efficacy objective is to evaluate whether a 3- or 6-month treatment with once-weekly SSR126517E s.c. injections is at least as effective as a 3- or 6-month treatment with INR-adjusted warfarin in the treatment and prevention of VTE recurrence at 3 months in patients with symptomatic PE with or without symptomatic DVT.;Secondary Objective: The secondary efficacy objective is to evaluate whether a 6-month treatment with once-weekly SSR126517E s.c injections is at least as effective as a 6-month treatment with INR-adjusted warfarin in the treatment and prevention of VTE recurrence at 6 months in patients with symptomatic PE with or without symptomatic DVT.;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is symptomatic fatal or non-fatal recurrent PE/DVT within 3 months (99 days). <br><br>
