Venous Thrombosis

Oral Rivaroxaban in Children with Venous Thrombosis

Trial purpose

The purpose of this study is to find out whether rivaroxaban is safe to use in children and how long it stays in the body. There will also be a check for bleeding and worsening of blood clots.

Primary Outcome

  • Number of Subjects With Major and Clinically Relevant Non-Major Bleeding Events
    Central independent adjudication committee (CIAC) classified bleeding as follows: Major bleeding is defined as overt bleeding and: • associated with a fall in hemoglobin of 2 gram/decilitre (g/dL) or more, or • leading to a transfusion of the equivalent of 2 or more units of packed red blood cells or whole blood in adults, or • occurring in a critical site, e.g. intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, pericardial, intra-articular, intramuscular with compartment syndrome, retroperitoneal, or • contributing to death. Clinically relevant non-major bleeding is defined as overt bleeding not meeting the criteria for major bleeding, but associated with: • medical intervention, or • unscheduled contact (visit or telephone call) with a physician, or • cessation (temporary) of study treatment, or • discomfort for the child such as pain or • impairment of activities of daily life (such as loss of school days or hospitalization).
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    From start of study drug administration until end of the 30-day treatment period

Secondary Outcome

  • Number of Subjects With Symptomatic Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism
    The occurrence of recurrent venous thromboembolism was summarized by age group. Symptomatic recurrence of venous thrombosis was documented by the appropriate imaging test.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    From start of study drug administration until end of the 30-day treatment period
  • Number of Subjects With Asymptomatic Deterioration in Thrombotic Burden
    The occurrence of asymptomatic deterioration in thrombotic burden was summarized by age group. Asymptomatic deterioration in thrombotic burden was documented by the appropriate imaging test and the results were classified as normalized, improved, no relevant change, deteriorated, not evaluable or not available.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    Repeat imaging at the end of the 30 day treatment period
  • Change From Baseline in Prothrombin Time at Specified Time Points
    Prothrombin time is a global clotting test used for the assessment of the extrinsic pathway of the blood coagulation cascade.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    0 hours (pre-dose) to 8 hours post-dose on Day 15 and 24 hours post-dose on Day 31
  • Change From Baseline in Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time at Specified Time Points
    The Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) is a screening test for the intrinsic pathway.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    0 hours (pre-dose) to 8 hours post-dose on Day 15 and 24 hours post-dose on Day 31
  • Anti-factor Xa Values at Specified Time Points
    The individual anti-Factor Xa activity was determined ex-vivo using a photometric method.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    0 hours (pre-dose) to 8 hours post-dose on Day 15 and 24 hours post-dose on Day 31
  • Concentration of Rivaroxaban in Plasma as a Measure of Pharmacokinetics at Specified Time Points
    Geometric and percentage geometric coefficient of variation (%CV) were reported.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    0 hours (pre-dose) to 8 hours post-dose on Day 15 and 24 hours post-dose on Day 31
