About this study

Official title: Eliquis (Apixaban) Regulatory Postmarketing Surveillance In Real World Practice (rPMS) For Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) Treatment And Prevention Of Recurrent VTE

To assess the real-world safety/effectiveness of Eliquis in Korean venous thromboembolism (VTE) patients and patient characteristics that are associated with bleeding among patients taking Eliquis. To identify factors that might be associated with the safety and effectiveness profile in Korean VTE patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety of Eliquis in Korean VTE patients based on incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

  2. Patient characteristics that are associated with bleeding among patients taking Eliquis

    Patient Characteristics: Age, sex, weight, height, baseline blood pressure, baseline serum creatinine, baseline creatinine clearance, and device insertion history

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Effectiveness of Eliquis in Korean VTE patients based on proportion of patients with no evidence of VTE and occurrence of VTE

    For VTE treatment: The proportion of patients with recurrent VTE at 24 weeks will be calculated. The incidence proportion will be estimated

    For prevention of recurrent VTE: The proportion of patients with recurrent VTE at 24 weeks, 52 weeks, and 104 weeks, will be calculated. The incidence proportion will be estimated

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

  2. Effectiveness of Eliquis in Korean VTE patients based on proportion of patients with no evidence of VTE and occurrence of VTE

    For VTE treatment: The proportion of patients with recurrent VTE at 24 weeks will be calculated. The 95% confidence intervals will be estimated

    For prevention of recurrent VTE: The proportion of patients with recurrent VTE at 24 weeks, 52 weeks, and 104 weeks, will be calculated. The 95% confidence intervals will be estimated

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety of Eliquis in Korean VTE patients based on incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) (time frame: Approximately 2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
