    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Adjudicated Composite of Symptomatic, Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) or All-Cause Death During the Intended Treatment Period - Randomized Population With Imputation [Day 1 up to 12 Months]

      VTE included: nonfatal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or nonfatal pulmonary embolism (PE). All index events, DVT and/or PE were adjudicated/confirmed by a central independent adjudication committee blinded to treatment. DVT assessed by compression ultrasound and/or venography; PE assessed by spiral computed tomography scanning, pulmonary angiography, and/or ventilation/perfusion lung scan. Event rate (proportion of participants with event) calculated as n/N (n=number of events; N=number of participants). Intended treatment period: longer of the dosing period plus 2 days (completed treatment) or 355 days (discontinued early). Composite endpoint included events at any time from randomization until end of the intended treatment period, regardless whether drug treatment was received. For missing endpoint data, participants were imputed as having had a primary efficacy outcome event.

    2. Adjudicated Composite of Symptomatic, Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) or All-Cause Death During the Intended Treatment Period - Randomized Population Without Imputation [Day 1 up to 12 months]

      VTE included: nonfatal DVT or nonfatal PE. Event rate (proportion of participants with event) calculated as n/N (n=number of events; N=number of participants). Intended treatment period: longer of the dosing period plus 2 days (completed treatment) or 355 days (discontinued early). Composite endpoint included events at any time from randomization until end of the intended treatment period, regardless whether drug treatment was received. No imputation was done for these endpoints; participants who had an event during the intended treatment period were counted. Confidence interval (CI) for single event rate was calculated based on the Wald asymptotic confidence limits.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Adjudicated Composite of Recurrent, Symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) or VTE-related Death During the Intended Treatment Period - Randomized Population With Imputation [Day 1 up to 12 Months]

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Adjudicated Composite of Symptomatic, Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) or All-Cause Death During the Intended Treatment Period - Randomized Population With Imputation
    Description VTE included: nonfatal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or nonfatal pulmonary embolism (PE). All index events, DVT and/or PE were adjudicated/confirmed by a central independent adjudication committee blinded to treatment. DVT assessed by compression ultrasound and/or venography; PE assessed by spiral computed tomography scanning, pulmonary angiography, and/or ventilation/perfusion lung scan. Event rate (proportion of participants with event) calculated as n/N (n=number of events; N=number of participants). Intended treatment period: longer of the dosing period plus 2 days (completed treatment) or 355 days (discontinued early). Composite endpoint included events at any time from randomization until end of the intended treatment period, regardless whether drug treatment was received. For missing endpoint data, participants were imputed as having had a primary efficacy outcome event.
    Time Frame Day 1 up to 12 Months

    Outcome Measure Data

    Analysis Population Description
    Intent to treat: all randomized participants with consent. Analyzed per randomized treatment assigned. (n) number of events=32, 34, 96 in apixaban 2.5 mg, 5 mg, and placebo arms, respectively; number of events imputed=13, 20, 19, respectively. Confidence interval (CI) for event rate was calculated based on the Wald asymptotic confidence limits.
    Arm/Group Title Apixaban 2.5 mg Apixaban 5 mg Placebo
    Arm/Group Description Participants received 2.5 mg oral tablet apixaban BID. Participants received 5 mg oral tablet apixaban BID. Participants received matching placebo oral tablet BID.

    Title Adjudicated Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) - Related Death During the Intended Treatment Period - Randomized Population With Imputation
    Description VTE-related death defined as: PE (based on objective diagnostic testing, autopsy), unexplained death (and VTE cannot be ruled out), sudden death (and VTE cannot be ruled out). DVT and/or PE were adjudicated/confirmed by a central independent adjudication committee blinded to treatment: DVT assessed by compression ultrasound and/or venography; PE assessed by spiral computed tomography scanning, pulmonary angiography, and/or ventilation/perfusion lung scan. New/recurrent VTE, death, venous/arterial thromboembolic events, bleeding, thrombocytopenia, acute myocardial infarction and stroke were also adjudicated. Event rate is proportion of participants with event; calculated as n/N (n=number of events; N=number of participants). Intended treatment period was defined as the longer of the dosing period plus 2 days or 355 days. Participants with missing endpoint information were classified as having had the efficacy event (imputation).

First event category was the first primary event for each participant and each participant was counted once. CV-related death was presented excluding VTE-related death. In participants with event category, each participant was counted once in each event category but could have been counted in multiple categories. No imputation was done for these endpoints; participants who had an event during the intended treatment period were counted.

    Title Adjudicated Total Bleeding During the Treatment Period - Treated Participants
    Description All bleeding events were adjudicated/confirmed by a central independent adjudication committee blinded to treatment. Total bleeding was defined as any major, clinically relevant non-major, or minor bleeding. Event rate is proportion of participants with event; calculated as n/N (n=number of events; N=number of participants). CI for single event rate was calculated based on the Wald asymptotic confidence limits. Treated population includes randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug.

    Title Adjudicated Composite of Recurrent, Symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) or Venous Thromboembolism-related Death During the Intended Treatment Period - Randomized Population Without Imputation
    Description VTE related death defined as PE (based on objective diagnostic testing, autopsy), unexplained death (and VTE cannot be ruled out), sudden death (and VTE cannot be ruled out). DVT and/or PE were adjudicated/confirmed by a central independent adjudication committee blinded to treatment: DVT assessed by compression ultrasound and/or venography; PE assessed by spiral computed tomography scanning, pulmonary angiography, and/or ventilation/perfusion lung scan. New/recurrent VTE and death, were also adjudicated. Event rate is proportion of participants with event; calculated as n/N (n=number of events; N=number of participants). Intended treatment period was defined as the longer of the dosing period plus 2 days or 355 days. Endpoint included events at any time from randomization until end of the intended treatment period, regardless whether drug treatment was received. No imputation was done for these endpoints.

Index events of DVT and/or PE, along with myocardial infarction and stroke were adjudicated/confirmed by a central independent adjudication committee blinded to treatment: DVT assessed by compression ultrasound and/or venography; PE assessed by spiral computed tomography scanning, pulmonary angiography, and/or ventilation/perfusion lung scan. Event rate is proportion of participants with event; calculated as n/N (n=number of events; N=number of participants). Intended treatment period was defined as the longer of the dosing period plus 2 days or 355 days.
