Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether aspirin alone or aspirin combined with various doses of rivaroxaban causes subclinical GI blood loss as determined by the HemoQuant assay.

Key

Exclusion Criteria
  1. History of anemia, abnormal bleeding (including vaginal bleeding or excessive menstrual periods), previous diagnosis of bleeding diathesis, or blood clots as defined in the protocol

  2. History, in the last year, of any bleeding GI lesions such as peptic ulcer, hemorrhoids or anal fissure, or a positive fecal occult blood test performed either during screening or on Day 1

  3. Presence of irregular stool patterns, constipation, or frequent diarrhea that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with stool collections required by the protocol

  4. Inability to refrain during study period from activities with high risk of bleeding or trauma such as planned surgery, contact sports, etc.

  5. Hemoglobin levels below the lower limit of normal as defined by local laboratory at screening; the lab may be repeated once if initially abnormal

  6. PT and aPTT values above the upper limit of normal as defined by the local laboratory during screening; the lab may be repeated once if initially abnormal

  7. Platelet count below the lower limit of normal as defined by the local laboratory during screening; the lab may be repeated once if initially abnormal

  8. History of clinically significant respiratory, hepatic, renal, GI, endocrine, hematological, psychiatric or neurological disease, as assessed by the investigator that may confound the results of the study or poses an additional risk to the participant by study participation.

    History of any atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
