NCT00423319

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to learn whether apixaban can prevent the blood clots in the leg (deep vein thrombosis) and lung (pulmonary embolism) that sometimes occur after hip replacement surgery and to learn how apixaban compares with enoxaparin in preventing these clots. The safety of apixaban will also be studied

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of Composite of Adjudicated Venous Thromboembolic Event (VTE)-Related (Pulmonary Embolism and Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis[DVT]) and All-cause Death During the Intended Treatment Period

    Event rate=Number of events divided by the number of patients evaluated. A mandatory bilateral ascending contrast venogram was to be obtained on Day 35 (± 3). Patients with confirmed symptomatic DVT at any time, or asymptomatic DVT upon venography, were to receive treatment for DVT according to the investigator's standard of care. Signs and symptoms suggestive of VTE included, but were not limited to: 1) lower extremity DVT: erythema, warmth, pain, swelling, tenderness; and 2) PE: pleuritic chest pain, dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis, syncope, light-headedness/dizziness, tachypnea, and tachycardia. Intended Treatment Period started on day of randomization and, for patients who received treatment, ended at the later of 2 days after last dose of study drug or 38 days after the first dose (presurgery) of study drug. For randomized patients who did not receive study drug, the period ended 38 days after randomization.

    Day 1 (first dose of study drug) to later of 2 days after last dose or 38 days after first dose

Secondary Outcomes (13)

  • Rate of Composite of Adjudicated Proximal Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), Nonfatal Pulmonary Embolism, and Venous Thromboembolic Event-related Death With Onset During Intended Treatment Period

    Day 1 (first dose of study drug) to later of 2 days after last dose or 38 days after first dose

  • Rates of Adjudicated All-cause Death, VTE-related Death, Pulmonary Embolism (PE), Nonfatal PE, Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) (Symptomatic and Asymptomatic), Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Proximal and Distal DVT During the Intended Treatment Period

    Day 1 (first dose of study drug) to later of 2 days after last dose or 38 days after first dose

  • Rate of Major Bleeding, Clinically Relevant Nonmajor Bleeding (CRNM), Major or CRNM, and Any Bleeding During the Treatment Period

    First dose of study drug (presurgery) through 2 days after the last dose of study drug

  • Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Bleeding Adverse Events (AEs), and Death as Outcome

    First dose of study drug (presurgery) through 30 days after the last dose of study drug

  • Number of Participants With a Bleeding-related Adverse Event During the Treatment Period

    First dose of study drug (presurgery) through 2 days after the last dose of study drug

  • +8 more secondary outcomes

  • Hemoglobin \<10 g/dL
  • Platelet count \<100,000/mm\^3
  • Creatinine clearance \<30 mL/min, as estimated by the method of Cockcroft and Gault
  • Alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase \>2\*upper limit of normal or a total bilirubin ≥ 1.5\*1 (unless an alternative causative factor such as Gilbert's syndrome was identified)
