    • Lower extremity DVT confirmed by bilateral venography at the end of study treatment
    • Definite diagnosis of symptomatic PE
    • Symptomatic DVT confirmed before the venography at the end of study treatment The objectives were to verify the non-inferiority of edoxaban to enoxaparin with regard to prevention of VTE

Secondary outcomes
