| E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation | 
| E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated | 
| Edoxaban is being investigated for use in PAD subjects after femoropopliteal endovascular interventions with/without stent placement for the maintenance of patency and prevention of re-intervention. |  |

 18. Women of childbearing potential without proper contraceptive measures (i.e. a method of contraception with a failure rate < 1 % during the course of the study including the observational period) and women who are pregnant or breast feeding;
 Note: These methods of contraception according to the note for guidance on nonclinical safety studies for the conduct of human trials for pharmaceuticals (CPMP/ICH/286/95, modification) include consistent and correct use of hormone containing implants and injectables, combined oral contraceptives, hormone containing intrauterine devices, surgical sterilization, sexual abstinence, and vasectomy for the male partner;

 21. Subjects with any condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would place the subject at increased risk of harm if he/she participated in the study;
 22. History of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.
