October 3, 2023 updated by: Kohtaro Abe, Kyushu University

An Investigator-initiated, Multicenter, Phase 3, Randomized, Single-blind, Double-dummy, Parallel-group Study of Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Edoxaban Versus Warfarin (Vitamin K Antagonist) in Subjects With Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension Taking Warfarin (Vitamin K Antagonist) at Baseline: KABUKI

This is phase III trial to evaluate whether edoxaban, a direct factor Xa inhibitor, is noninferior to warfarin in preventing worsening of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

16 years to 81 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures
