Active clinical trials for "Venous Thromboembolism"

To supplement the current evidence of the effect of Pradaxa® (dabigatran etexilate) on coagulation parameters, including a calibrated thrombin time test, in patients with moderate renal impairment undergoing elective total hip- or knee-replacement surgery, this PK/PD study will be conducted.

The objective of this dose-confirmatory bridging study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban 5 to 10 mg once-daily (od) dosing in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Japanese patients undergoing elective total hip replacement (THR) and to confirm the extrapolability of global data to Japanese patients by comparing with data from overseas phase II study (ODIXa-OD.HIP - Study 11527).

The objective of this dose-confirmatory bridging study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban 5 to 10 mg once-daily (od) dosing in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Japanese patients undergoing elective total knee replacement (TKR) and to confirm the extrapolability of global data to Japanese patients by comparing with data from overseas phase III study (RECORD 3 - Study 11356) and phase II studies.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of different dose of LMWH compared with fondaparinux for thromboprophylaxis is efficacious and safety after thoracic surgery.

The purpose of this study is to determine if TAK-442, once daily (QD) or twice daily (BID), is as safe and effective as enoxaparin in preventing the development of blood clots after knee replacement surgery.

The primary objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of once daily (q.d.) subcutaneous (s.c.) injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with q.d. s.c. injections of Enoxaparin for the prevention of Venous Thromboembolic Events (VTE) in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the safety of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) and to document Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) exposure in this population.

The primary objective was to compare the efficacy of once daily subcutaneous injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with placebo in the prevention of venous thromboembolism [VTE] in cancer patients at high risk for VTE and who were undergoing chemotherapy. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the safety of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026), to document Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) exposures, to try identifying a metagene predictor of VTE and to assess the survival status at one year in this population.

Enoxaparin is a type of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), or anticoagulant, used to prevent and treat blood clots. Formation of blood clots, or venous thromboemboli (VTE) in pregnancy can have dangerous and even life-threatening effects on the mother and fetus. Enoxaparin is the preferred medicine to prevent clotting in pregnant patients who are at risk for VTE, because it has been studied to be safe and effective in pregnancy without any harms to the fetus. Although this medication is routinely used and is recommended by several prominent medical groups, the optimal dosing for prevention of VTE is still unclear. The range of standardly prescribed dosing regimens of Enoxaparin includes 40mg daily and 1mg/kg daily, but these two dosing strategies have never been compared in a head to head fashion.

Evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating oral doses of YM150 in patients undergoing elective primary total knee replacement surgery

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven, superiority study for efficacy. Patients with confirmed symptomatic DVT (deep vein thrombosis) or PE (pulmonary embolism) who completed 6 or 12 months of treatment with rivaroxaban or VKA (vitamin K antagonist) are eligible for this trial (Einstein-Extension study).
