New analysis identifies patient populations with cancer-associated VTE who could benefit from treatment with oral, once-daily LIXIANA (edoxaban)
- Hokusai-VTE CANCER study showed that oral edoxaban is non-inferior to subcutaneous injectable dalteparin, for the composite outcome of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) and major bleeding in cancer-associated VTE
- This analysis provides benefit/risk assessment in different types of cancer patient populations1
- In those with non-gastrointestinal cancer, the risk of major bleeding was comparable1
