About this study
Official title: Randomized, Double-blind, Double-masked Prospective Multicenter Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of the Oral Anticoagulant Dimolegin® Compared With Low Molecular Weight Heparin (Clexane®) as a Means of Preventing VTE in Patients Undergoing Elective Endoprosthetics of Large Joints
This clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the anticoagulant Dimolegin® compared to low molecular weight heparin (Clexane®) for the prevention of venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in patients undergoing major joint (hip or knee) replacement surgery. The study will assess the incidence of VTE, VTE-related mortality, and all-cause mortality during different follow-up periods in both treatment groups. Additionally, the study will evaluate the frequency of bleeding events and the incidence, number, and characteristics of all adverse events associated with Dimolegin® and Clexane® therapy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Sodium enoxaparin and Dimolegin in people with Arthroplasty, Replacement, Hip and Arthroplasty, Replacement, Knee, run by Avexima Diol LLC at 8 sites in Russia.
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 5 inclusion and 30 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 16 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 8 sites in Russia. 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?
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?
Composite endpoint i.e.: confirmed symptomatic DVT, asymptomatic DVT, non fatal PE, death of all causes (time frame: up to the follow-up visit (28±2 days after the end of therapy)). 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 NCT07124819, 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 16 Jan 2026.
