Rivaroxaban versus Enoxaparin for Thromboprophylaxis after Hip Arthroplasty

Abstract: A once-daily, 10-mg oral dose of rivaroxaban was significantly more effective for extended thromboprophylaxis than a once-daily, 40-mg subcutaneous dose of enoxaparin in patients undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty. The two drugs had similar safety profiles. (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00329628.)

“…During the development of the oral anticoagulants for prevention of VTE in THR and TKR surgery, multiple phase II dose‐finding trials and phase III trials have typically been conducted for the different types of surgery and comparator dose regimens 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38. The results of the current analyses suggest that the outcome of a single study in one type of surgery with one comparator dose regimen, used in conjunction with the model‐based meta‐analysis, would be sufficient to determine the optimal dose for both types of surgery and compared with both regimens of comparator.…”

“…In the RECORD program, men and women at least 18 years old who were scheduled to undergo elective THA or TKA were eligible for inclusion. Eligible patients were randomized to receive 10 mg oral rivaroxaban once daily (6 to 8 hours after wound closure) or 40 mg subcutaneous enoxaparin once daily (RECORD1-3 trials; initiated 12 hours before surgery and restarted 6 to 8 hours after wound closure) or 30 mg enoxaparin twice daily (RECORD4 trial; initiated 12 to 24 hours after wound closure) [8,10,12,24]. Study drugs were administered for 31 to 39 days in RECORD1, rivaroxaban was administered for 31 to 39 days and enoxaparin for 10 to 14 days plus placebo in RECORD2, and for 10 to 14 days in the RECORD3 and RECORD4 trials [8,10,12,24].…”

“…Rivaroxaban's effectiveness in prevention of venous thrombosis in lower extremity orthopedic surgery was studied in four phase III clinical trials-two in THA and two in TKA [13,14,21,22]. The standard dose of rivaroxaban was 10 mg daily started 6-8 hr after wound closure.…”

“…The standard dose of rivaroxaban was 10 mg daily started 6-8 hr after wound closure. In THA, rivaroxaban compared to 40 mg of enoxaparin for 35 days was more effective in preventing thrombosis-including proximal thrombosis-with no increase in bleeding [21]. In RECORD 2 THA trial, the comparator was a short course of enoxaparin 40 mg daily for 10-14 days compared to 42 days of rivaroxaban 10 mg daily [22].…”
