Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population will include patients with a hospital or ED discharge International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) or ICD-10 code indicating a primary diagnosis of VTE identified from the Premier Hospital database between 01-Aug-2014 and 31-May-2016. Patients who received apixaban or warfarin with or without LMWH during any time of the hospitalization (from admission to discharge) will be identified. Patients receiving both apixaban and warfarin, or any other direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC), including rivaroxaban, dabigatran, and edoxaban, during the index hospitalizations will be excluded from the study population. Patients will be required to have no evidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) or atrial flutter (AFL) during the index hospitalizations or the baseline periods.

Who may be able to join

  • Have a primary diagnosis of VTE identified by ICD-9-CM or ICD-10 codes from the Premier Hospital database between 01-Aug-2014 and 31-May-2016
  • Age 18 years or older as of index hospitalization with VTE diagnosis
  • Patients will be required to have received apixaban or warfarin with or without LMWH (index drugs) during the index hospitalizations

Who cannot join

  • Received both apixaban and warfarin during the index hospitalization. This exclusion criterion will allow to cleanly group patients into the apixaban and warfarin usage cohorts.
  • Received any other Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) including rivaroxaban, dabigatran, and edoxaban during the index hospitalization
  • Have any primary or secondary diagnosis code for Atrial fibrillation/Atrial flutter (AF/AFL), or pregnancy, or records of inferior vena cava filter (IVCF) usage during the index hospitalizations or the baseline periods.
  • Patients transferred from other facilities
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria could apply

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Hospital Healthcare Utilization and Costs Among Hospitalized Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) Patients Treated With Apixaban or Warfarin in the United States

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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 28 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

Hospital Length of stay (LOS) (time frame: During the index hospitalization (Up to 30 days)). 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?
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 28 Oct 2019.
