Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: • To assess the safety and efficacy profile of ISIS 416858, including incidence of bleeding and VTE, in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty • to compare the efficacy and safety profile of ISIS 416858 in patients who achieve </= 0.2 U/mL FXI activity levels tothat of enoxaparin;Secondary Objective: To assess a potential dose-response relationship of ISIS 416858 with respect to the reduction of VTE incidence in patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty ;Primary end point(s): A composite of asymptomatic DVT and objectively confirmed symptomatic VTE, fatal PE and unexplained death.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Up to 12 days in the post-surgery treatment period. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): All DVTs and non-fatal and fatal PEs;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From first study drug administration up to 4 weeks after mandatory bilateral venography is performed. | — |
