About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Pulmonary Embolism focused on measuring acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism

Eligibility Criteria

20 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Men and women >/= 20 years of age in patients with confirmed acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE) with or without symptomatic deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Thrombectomy, insertion of a caval filter, or use of a fibrinolytic agent to treat the current episode of PE
  • More than 48 hours pre-randomization treatment with therapeutic dosages of anti-coagulant treatment or more than a single dose of warfarin from the onset of the current episode of PE to randomization
  • Calculated creatinine clearance (CLCR) < 30 mL/min
  • Subjects with hepatic disease which is associated with coagulopathy leading to a clinically relevant bleeding risk
  • Active bleeding or high risk for bleeding contraindicating treatment with unfractioned Heparin (UFH) or warfarin
  • Systolic blood pressure > 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 110 mmHg
