Intended Treatment Period=period that started on day of randomization: period ended (for treated) at latter of a) 2 days after last dose of study drug and b) 32 days after first dose of study drug; period ended (for not treated) 32 days after randomization. A bilateral compression ultrasound (CUS) was performed between Days 5 and 14 for detection of asymptomatic proximal DVT unless a symptomatic VTE was confirmed prior. CUS was also performed on Day 30 ± 2 except for those participants who had a confirmed symptomatic VTE or proximal asymptomatic DVT prior to that time. All efficacy events were adjudicated by the Independent Central Adjudication Committee (ICAC). Event rate (%): n/N*100 (n=number with observation; N=total efficacy evaluable participants).
- Incidence of Major Bleeding During the Treatment Period in Treated Participants [ Time Frame: Day 1, first dose of study drug, to last dose of study drug plus 2 days ]Major bleeding was adjudicated by an ICAC using criteria from the International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) and was defined as acute clinically overt bleeding: associated with a fall in hemoglobin of 2 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or more, or leading to a transfusion of 2 or more units of packed red blood cells or 1000 milliliters (mL) or more of whole blood, or bleeding in a critical site or bleeding which is fatal. Incidence determined by Event Rate (%): n/N*100 (n=number with observation; N=total efficacy evaluable participants).
- Incidence of Clinically Relevant Non-Major (CRNM) Bleeding During the Treatment Period in Treated Participants [ Time Frame: Day 1, first dose of study drug, to last dose of study drug plus 2 days ]Bleeding was adjudicated by an ICAC using criteria from the ISTH.
