Prevention, Thromboembolism
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to assess if 10 mg BAY 59-7939, taken once daily as a tablet, is safe and prevent blood clot which may form after total hip replacement operation.
Interventions
10 mg OD tablet of rivaroxaban administered for 36 +/- 4 days
Syringe of Enoxaparin active substance at a dose of 40 mg administered for 13 +/- 2 days

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Male and female patients aged 18 years or above * Patients scheduled for elective total hip replacement
Exclusion criteria
* Planned, staged total bilateral hip replacement * Active bleeding or high risk of bleeding contraindicating treatment with low molecular weight heparin * Contraindication listed in the labeling or conditions precluding patient treatment with enoxaparin * Conditions prohibiting bilateral venography (e.g. amputation of one leg, allergy to contrast media)
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Composite endpoint of total VTE i.e.: Any DVT (proximal and/or distal), Non fatal PE, Death of all causes | Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Incidence of symptomatic VTE (DVT, PE) | Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 |
| Incidence of DVT (total, proximal, distal) | Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 |
| Incidence of symptomatic VTE during follow-up | Follow-up period: following 36+/-6 days |
| Incidence of the composite endpoint comprising proximal DVT, non-fatal PE and VTE- related death (major VTE) | Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 |
| Incidence of the composite endpoint that results from the primary endpoint by substituting VTE related death for all death | Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 |
| Incidence of the composite endpoint that results from major VTE by substituting all cause mortality for VTE-related death | Treatment period : up to day 36+/-6 |
| Treatment-emergent major bleedings | From first dose of double-blind study medication to up to two days after last dose of double-blind study medication |
| The composite endpoint comprising major VTE and treatment-emergent major bleeding | For major VTE, treatment period: up to Day 36+/-6 ; for major bleeding, from first dose of double-blind study medication to up to two days after last dose of double-blind study medication |
