Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline to End of Month 6 in Prothrombin Fragment 1+2 Levels

    Prothrombin fragment 1+2 is a coagulation factor, released when prothrombin is cleaved by activated factor X. Elevated plasma levels of prothrombin fragment 1+2 indicate high risk of thrombosis.

    Baseline to Month 6

Secondary Outcomes (20)

  • Change From Baseline to End of Month 6 in D-dimer

    Baseline to Month 6

  • Change From Baseline to End of Month 6 in Plasmin-Antiplasmin (PAP) Complex

    Baseline to Month 6

  • Change From Baseline to End of Month 6 in Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) Based Activated Protein-C Resistance (APC)

    Baseline to Month 6

  • Change From Baseline to End of Month 6 in Endogenous Thrombin Potential (EPT) Based Activated Protein-C Resistance (APC)

    Baseline to Month 6

  • Change From Baseline to End of Month 6 in Fibrinogen

    Baseline to Month 6

  • +15 more secondary outcomes
