What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Composite of Recurrent VTE or VTE Death at 36 Months
Endpoint is a composite of recurrent Venous Thromboembolic Event (VTE) and death related to VTE. VTE was defined as the composite of symptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) of the leg and Pulmonary embolism (PE). All recurrent VTEs required objective verification by definitive diagnostic evaluation. In case of death, autopsy was an additional way to confirm VTE.
Measured: 36 months
Composite of Recurrent VTE or VTE Death at 18 Months
Endpoint is a composite of recurrent Venous Thromboembolic Event (VTE) and death related to VTE. VTE was defined as the composite of symptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) of the leg and Pulmonary embolism (PE). All recurrent VTEs required objective verification by definitive diagnostic evaluation. In case of death, autopsy was an additional way to confirm VTE.
Measured: 18 months

Number of Participants With Bleeding Events
MBE (major bleeding event) if it fulfilled at least one of the following criteria
- Fatal bleeding
- Symptomatic bleeding in a critical area or organ.
- Bleeding causing a fall in haemoglobin level of 20 g/L (1.24 mmol/L) or more, or leading to transfusion of 2 or more units of whole blood or red cells.
Minor bleeding event was any bleeding that did not fulfil any of the criteria for MBEs
CRBE (clinically relevant bleeding event) if it is a minor bleeding events which fulfilled at least one of the following criteria
- Spontaneous skin haematoma ≥25 cm2
- Spontaneous nose bleed >5 min duration
- Macroscopic haematuria, either spontaneous or, if associated with an intervention, lasting >24 h

- Any other bleeding event considered clinically relevant by the investigator
Measured: first intake of study drug until 6 days following last intake of study drug
Laboratory Analysis
Patients with LFT (liver function tests) increases of possible clinical significance during treatment. Increases of possible clinical significance were defined as: ≥3 x ULN (AST, ALT), ≥2 x ULN (AP), and ≥2 mg/dL (total bilirubin). Only patients with a baseline value which was not of possible clinical significance (or without any baseline value) could have a PCSA (Possible clinically significant abnormality).
Measured: 18 months + 30 days follow up
Number of Participants With Definite Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS)
All suspected ACS occurring during the trial were to be recorded on the CRF and were to be centrally adjudicated by an independent ACS/AC in a treatment-blinded manner.
Measured: day of first study drug intake until last day of study drug intake; from the day after last intake of study drug until trial termination

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Dabigatran and Warfarin in people with Thromboembolism, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 275 sites in 33 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 275 sites in Russia, United States, Canada, China, India and 28 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Sep 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Composite of Recurrent VTE or VTE Death at 36 Months (time frame: 36 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00329238, which also lists 3 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 May 2014.
