thromboembolism

Rivaroxaban for treatment in venous or arterial thrombosis in neonates

Trial purpose

The purpose of this study is to find out whether rivaroxaban is safe and effective to use in children age newborn to less than 6 months and how long it stays in the body and how it is used in the body. Safety will be assessed by looking at the incidence and types of bleeding events. There will also be a check for worsening of blood clots.

Secondary Outcome

  • Number of Participants 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/deciliter (g/dL) or more, •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, example: 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
