Abstract
Background: The ONCO DVT study revealed the superiority of 12-month relative to 3-month edoxaban treatment for cancer-associated isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) regarding the thrombotic risk.
Methods and results: In this pre-specified subgroup analysis of the ONCO DVT study, we stratified the patients into those with a standard edoxaban dose (60 mg/day; N = 151) and those with a reduced edoxaban dose (30 mg/day; N = 450) and evaluated the clinical outcomes for the 12- and 3-month treatments. The cumulative 12-month incidence of symptomatic recurrent venous thromboembolism was lower in the 12-month than 3-month group for both the 60 mg (1.3% vs. 11.6%, P = 0.02; odds ratio [OR], 0.12; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.01-0.97) and 30 mg (1.1% vs. 7.6%, P = 0.002; OR, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.03-0.60) edoxaban subgroups, which was consistent across the edoxaban doses without a significant interaction (P = 0.90). The 12-month cumulative incidence of major bleeding was higher in the 12-month group than in the 3-month group for the 60 mg edoxaban subgroup (14.3% vs. 4.4%, P = 0.046; OR, 3.61; 95% CI, 0.97-13.52), whereas it did not significantly differ between the two groups for the 30 mg edoxaban subgroup (8.7% vs. 8.6%, P = 0.89; OR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.49-1.91), signalling there was a potential interaction (P = 0.07).
Conclusions: A 12-month edoxaban regimen for cancer-associated isolated distal DVT was consistently superior to a 3-month regimen, across the edoxaban doses for the thrombotic risk. However, caution was suggested for the standard dose of edoxaban due to the potential for an increased risk of bleeding with prolonged anticoagulation therapy.
期刊介绍:
The European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Pharmacotherapy (EHJ-CVP) is an international, peer-reviewed journal published in English, specifically dedicated to clinical cardiovascular pharmacology. EHJ-CVP publishes original articles focusing on clinical research involving both new and established drugs and methods, along with meta-analyses and topical reviews. The journal's primary aim is to enhance the pharmacological treatment of patients with cardiovascular disease by interpreting and integrating new scientific developments in this field.
While the emphasis is on clinical topics, EHJ-CVP also considers basic research articles from fields such as physiology and molecular biology that contribute to the understanding of cardiovascular drug therapy. These may include articles related to new drug development and evaluation, the physiological and pharmacological basis of drug action, metabolism, drug interactions, and side effects.
