The treatment of VTE will be revolutionized by novel oral anticoagulants that offer effective, safe and more convenient alternatives to current parenteral therapies and warfarin. New data from the Phase III EINSTEIN-DVT clinical trial for the treatment of acute venous thromboembolism (VTE) demonstrated that Johnson & Johnson/Bayer’s oral therapy Xarelto (rivaroxaban) provides similar levels of efficacy and safety compared to the current standard of care—Sanofi-Aventis’s Lovenox (enoxaparin) and warfarin. These landmark findings were presented at the recent European Society of Cardiology Congress.
This 15-minute analyst call, presented by Decision Resources Analyst Matthew Killeen, Ph.D., will answer the following questions:
- How do the recent Xarelto findings compare with results from Boehringer Ingelheim’s Pradaxa (dabigatran etexilate) RE-COVER trial?
- What other novel oral anticoagulants are most likely to compete with Xarelto for the treatment of VTE?
- What are the current opinions of thought leaders regarding the use of novel oral anticoagulants for VTE treatment?
Dr. Killeen will conduct a live Q & A session after the presentation.
