Trial summary

This is an observational study in which data from the past is collected for a treatment which is already available for doctors to prescribe for venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a condition in which blood clots form in veins, which can lead to disability and death. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Descriptive Analysis of VTE Treatment With Rivaroxaban in Japanese Clinical Practice Using a Claims Database

This is an observational study in which data from the past is collected for a treatment which is already available for doctors to prescribe for venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a condition in which blood clots form in veins, which can lead to disability and death. This study looks at the bleeding risk in Japanese patients who are already receiving long-term rivaroxaban treatment for their VTE.

Some common causes of VTE are surgery, lack of movement, being bed-ridden and cancer. VTE that is caused by cancer is called cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (Ca-VTE).

The study treatment, rivaroxaban, is a blood thinner prescribed by doctors to help treat conditions like VTE. By thinning the blood, rivaroxaban can help keep blood flowing normally and prevent blood clots. But, rivaroxaban can lead to increased bleeding in some people.

There have been studies done in which participants with VTE and Ca-VTE received treatment with rivaroxaban for a long period of time. The overall results of those studies showed that long-term treatment with rivaroxaban helped prevent blood clots in those participants. Some of the participants had increased bleeding after this long-term treatment, while some did not. Participants with certain types of cancers, such as Ca-VTE, also had an increased risk of bleeding.

These studies, however, did not include Japanese participants. So, the researchers in this study want to learn more about the risk of bleeding in Japanese patients with VTE or Ca-VTE who receive long-term treatment with rivaroxaban. To do this, the researchers plan to use a medical database to find information for patients with VTE and Ca-VTE who have already been taking rivaroxaban for their condition. This database will help the researchers collect information about the bleeding risk of long-term rivaroxaban treatment in Japanese patients.

In this study, the researchers will learn more about:

  • the characteristics of patients with VTE who are treated with rivaroxaban for a period of less than 3 months to more than 1 year
  • the bleeding risk for all of the patients throughout the study
  • the bleeding risk for the patients with Ca-VTE throughout the study
  • the cause of any bleeding that happens

The researchers will follow and record these results for Japanese patients from October 2015 to December 2020.

What is being measured

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

  1. Descriptive summary of bleeding risk profile of rivaroxaban, e.g.: incidence rate of / time to bleeding

    A bleeding defined as a composite of intracranial hemorrhage, intraocular bleeding, upper/lower gastrointestinal bleeding, and bleeding requiring for blood transfusion.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from index date (first VTE diagnosis having a rivaroxaban prescription claim within 30-days after the diagnosis) up to 31-Dec-2020

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Descriptive summary of individual components of the composite primary outcome. e.g.: incidence rate of / time to each individual components of the composite primary outcome

    Components of the composite primary outcome: intracranial hemorrhage, intraocular bleeding, upper/lower gastrointestinal bleeding, and bleeding requiring for blood transfusion.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from index date (first VTE diagnosis having a rivaroxaban prescription claim within 30-days after the diagnosis) up to 31-Dec-2020

  2. Descriptive summary of recurrent PE/DVT event. e.g.: incidence rate of / time to recurrent PE/DVT

    PE: Pulmonary Embolism DVT: Deep Vein Thrombosis

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from index date (first VTE diagnosis having a rivaroxaban prescription claim within 30-days after the diagnosis) up to 31-Dec-2020

  3. Descriptive summary of VTE patient characteristics that treated with Rivaroxaban

    Patient demographic and clinical characteristics including age, gender, comorbidities, medical history and medication

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from baseline period [180 days before index date (first VTE diagnosis having a rivaroxaban prescription claim within 30-days after the diagnosis)] up to 31-Dec-2020

Individual data sharing
No: Availability of this study's data will later be determined according to Bayer's commitment to the EFPIA/PhRMA "Principles for responsible clinical trial data sharing". This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Treatment of Venous Thromboembolism, run by Bayer at 2 sites in Japan.

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 2 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 12 Jan 2023. 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 Japan. 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?

Descriptive summary of bleeding risk profile of rivaroxaban, e.g.: incidence rate of / time to bleeding (time frame: Retrospective analysis from index date (first VTE diagnosis having a rivaroxaban prescription claim within 30-days after the diagnosis) up to 31-Dec-2020). 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 12 Jan 2023.
