E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of a 12-month course of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH)/edoxaban compared with dalteparin for the prevention of the combined outcome of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) or major bleeding in subjects with VTE associated with cancer. If non-inferiority is established, edoxaban will be compared with dalteparin for superiority. |
El objetivo principal es demostrar la no inferioridad de un ciclo de 12 meses de heparina de bajo peso molecular (HBPM)/edoxabán en comparación con dalteparina para la prevención del resultado combinado del tromboembolismo venoso (TEV) recurrente o hemorragia grave en sujetos con TEV asociado al cáncer. Si se establece la no inferioridad, edoxabán se comparará con dalteparina para determinar la superioridad. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To compare LMWH/edoxaban with dalteparin with regards to rates of: 1. Recurrent VTE; 2. Major bleeding; 3. Clinically relevant non-major (CRNM) bleeding; 4. Major + CRNM bleeding; 5. Event-free survival, defined as the proportion of subjects over time free of recurrent VTE, major bleeding events, and death; 6. VTE-related death; 7. Mortality from all causes; 8. Recurrent deep vein thrombosis (DVT); 9. Recurrent pulmonary embolism (PE); 10. Healthcare resource utilization for potential recurrent VTE and bleed events. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary study outcome is the composite of recurrent VTE, and major bleeding. Recurrent VTE is either: -symptomatic confirmed (new) DVT or (new) PE; -unsuspected (new) proximal DVT of the legs or unsuspected (new) PE located in segmental or more proximal arteries: Unsuspected DVT or PE are thrombi that are detected during imaging testing performed for other reasons (eg, computed tomography (CT) for cancer staging) and not for suspicion of DVT or PE. -fatal PE (including unexplained death for which PE cannot be ruled out). |
El resultado principal del estudio es la combinación de TEV recurrente y hemorragia grave. El TEV recurrente es: - TVP (nueva) sintomática confirmada o EP (nueva) - TVP proximal (nueva) insospechada de las piernas o EP (nueva) insospechada localizada en las arterias segmentales o en las arterias más proximales: El TVP o la EP insospechados son trombos que se detectan durante las pruebas de imagen realizadas por otras razones (p. ej., tomografía axial computarizada [TAC] para determinar el estadio del cáncer) y no en el caso de sospecha de TVP o EP. - EP mortal (incluido el fallecimiento sin explicación en el que no se pueda excluir la EP como causa) |

Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last
visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
|
Once 1000 subjects are randomized, a global End-of-Treatment (EOT) date will be established that ensures a minimum of 6 months of study treatment and follow-up for the final subject(s) randomized. All subjects will permanently discontinue study treatment on or before the EOT date. |
Una vez se haya aleatorizado a 1000 sujetos en el estudio, se establecerá una fecha de fin de tratamiento (FdT) general que garantizará un mínimo de 6 meses de tratamiento del estudio y seguimiento para el/los último(s) sujeto(s) aleatorizado(s). Todos los sujetos interrumpirán de forma permanente el tratamiento del estudio en la fecha de FdT o con anterioridad a esta. |
