About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Multicenter Study Comparing Rivaroxaban 2.5 mg Twice Daily Associated With Aspirin 100 mg Once Daily Versus Aspirin 100 mg Once Daily in Patients With Peripheral Arterial Disease and Limiting Intermittent Claudication. (The COMPASS CLAUDICATION Trial).

This trial is evaluating if rivaroxaban 2.5 mg BID and aspirin 100 mg OD compared to aspirin alone improves on intermittent claudication distance in PAD patients.

Read the detailed description

Background: The COMPASS trial demonstrated that in patients with peripheral arterial disease the combination of rivaroxaban and aspirin compared with aspirin reduces the risk of major adverse limb events, but it is not known whether this combination can also improve symptoms in patients with intermittent claudication. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the combination on intermittent claudication distance.

Study design: Eighty-eight patients with intermittent claudication will be randomized to receive rivaroxaban 2,5 mg twice daily plus aspirin 100 mg once daily or aspirin 100 mg once daily for 24 weeks. The primary outcome is the change in claudication distance from baseline to 24 hours as measured by 6 minutes walking test and treadmill test. The main safety outcome is the incidence of major bleeding according to ISTH criteria.

Summary: The COMPASS CLAUDICATION trial will provide high-quality evidence regarding the effect of the combination of rivaroxaban and aspirin on claudication distance in patients with peripheral arterial disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Rivaroxaban 2.5 Mg Oral Tablet in people with Peripheral Artery Disease and Intermittent Claudication, run by Science Valley Research Institute at 2 sites in Brazil.

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 7 inclusion and 13 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 6 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Brazil. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Change from baseline in the total walking distance (TWD) at week 24 in meters in the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT04853719, which also lists 2 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 6 Aug 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
