Brief summary
The study objective is to investigate the pharmacodynamics (effects of a drug product) when switching the treatment from warfarin to rivaroxaban. 84 young, healthy subjects will participate; they will be treated following a randomized, parallel-group (Treatments A, B, and C), placebo-controlled (Treatment B), and single-blind (Treatments A and B) design. The first two groups (A, B) will receive warfarin for approximately one week to adjust their blood coagulation values to a specific level, i.e. to maintain an INR (international normalized ratio) of 2.0 - 3.0. This range is commonly used for long-term anticoagulant treatment. The first group (A) will receive rivaroxaban for four days, the second group (B) will take placebo. On the last day, all subjects in groups A and B will receive vitamin K to neutralize the effects of warfarin. The third group (C) will not undergo prior treatment with warfarin but will receive rivaroxaban for four days.
Interventions
Days -6 and -5: 10 mg warfarin (Coumadin) once daily, dosage lower if the INR is already high on day -5; Days -4 to -1 (could be prolonged by two days): 2.5, 5, 10, 12.5 or 15 mg warfarin (Coumadin) once daily, dosage depending on INR
Days 0 to 3: 20 mg rivaroxaban once daily
Days 0 to 3: 1 tablet placebo, identical to active tablet
Day 5: 10 mg vitamin K (Konakion) once daily

Outcome results
Emax,BA (Baseline Adjusted Maximum Effect) on Prothrombin Time (Coagulation Test)
Prothrombin time (PT) is a global clotting test assessing the extrinsic pathway of the blood coagulation cascade.
