- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Composite endpoint of total VTE i.e.: Any DVT (proximal and/or distal), Non fatal PE, Death of all causes Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Incidence of the composite endpoint comprising proximal DVT, non-fatal PE and VTE- related death (major VTE) Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 Incidence of DVT (total, proximal, distal) Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 Incidence of symptomatic VTE (DVT, PE) Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 The composite endpoint comprising major VTE and treatment-emergent major bleeding For major VTE, treatment period: up to Day 36+/-6 ; for major bleeding, from first dose of double-blind study medication to up to two days after last dose of double-blind study medication Incidence of the composite endpoint that results from the primary endpoint by substituting VTE related death for all death Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 Incidence of the composite endpoint that results from major VTE by substituting all cause mortality for VTE-related death Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 Treatment-emergent major bleedings From first dose of double-blind study medication to up to two days after last dose of double-blind study medication Incidence of symptomatic VTE during follow-up Follow-up period: following 36+/-6 days
