About this study

Official title: Non-Interventional Study on Edoxaban Treatment in Routine Clinical Practice in Patients With Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) in Korea and Taiwan

According to current guidelines, duration of anticoagulant treatment after a venous thromboembolic event varies from 3 months to indefinite treatment depending on the estimated risks of venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence and bleeding. Current data for edoxaban are limited to a maximum treatment duration of 12 months.

Therefore, this study aims to gather further insight into efficacy (i.e. symptomatic recurrent VTE) and safety (i.e. bleeding events, liver adverse events, all-cause mortality and other drug related adverse events) of extended treatment with edoxaban up to 12 months in an unselected patient population in routine clinical practice.

Read the detailed description

Edoxaban is an orally administered anticoagulant that inhibits coagulation factor Xa. It has been approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) in Korea (date: 25th, August 2015) for the: Reduction in the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) Treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) Reduction in the risk of recurrent DVT and PE, and by Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) in Taiwan (date: 24th, February, 2016) for the Prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in adult patients with NVAF with one or more risk factors, such as congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥ 75 years, diabetes mellitus, prior stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) following 5 to 10 days of initial therapy with a parenteral anticoagulant.

According to current guidelines, duration of anticoagulant treatment after a venous thromboembolic event varies from 3 months to indefinite treatment depending on the estimated risks of venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence and bleeding. Current data for edoxaban are limited to a maximum treatment duration of 12 months.

This non-interventional study aims to gather further insight into efficacy (i.e. symptomatic recurrent VTE) and safety (i.e. bleeding events, liver adverse events, all-cause mortality and other drug related adverse events) of extended treatment with edoxaban up to 12 months in approximately 350 patients in an unselected patient population in routine clinical practice.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Rate of overall symptomatic VTE recurrence

    Rate of overall symptomatic VTE recurrence within 12 months

    Measured: Baseline to 12 months

  2. Rate of participants experiencing Real World Safety Data Events

    Categories: VTE-related bleeding events, Drug-related adverse events, Cardiovascular Mortality, and All-cause Mortality

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Rate of participants taking edoxaban with symptomatic VTE recurrence

    Rate of participants taking edoxaban with symptomatic VTE recurrence in 12 months

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Rate of participants who permanently discontinued edoxaban with symptomatic VTE recurrence

    Rate of participants who permanently discontinued edoxaban with symptomatic VTE recurrence in 12 months

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Rate of participants with patient relevant outcomes

    Patient relevant outcomes include bleeding events, strokes (ischaemic and haemorrhagic), systemic embolic events (SEE), and hospitalisations related to cardiovascular (CV) condition (including VTE related hospitalisation).

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Venous Thromboembolism, run by Daiichi Sankyo at 19 sites in 2 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 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in Taiwan, South Korea. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Rate of overall symptomatic VTE recurrence (time frame: Baseline to 12 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 NCT02952599, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 23 Dec 2019.
