Edoxaban for 12 vs. 3 months in cancer-associated isolated distal deep vein thrombosis according to different doses: insights from the ONCO DVT study.

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
