Brief Summary:
This is an event driven Phase 3, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint evaluation (PROBE) parallel group study in subjects with confirmed VTE. This study is designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of edoxaban and to compare the efficacy and safety of edoxaban against standard of care in pediatric subjects with confirmed VTE.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) Pulmonary Embolism Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Drug: Edoxaban Drug: Standard of Care Phase 3

Detailed Description:
The objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of edoxaban to standard of care (SOC; including low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), vitamin K antagonist (VKA), or synthetic pentasaccharide (SP) Xa inhibitors) in the treatment and secondary prevention of VTE in pediatric subjects with regard to the composite efficacy endpoint (ie, symptomatic recurrent VTE, death as result of VTE, and no change or extension of thrombotic burden) during the first 3-month treatment period.

    Diagnosis of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) requires the confirmation by diagnostic imaging and at least one of the symptoms of VTE from such areas as lower or upper extremity, catheter related thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or sinovenous thrombosis.

  2. Number of Participants Who Died as a Result of VTE During the Main Treatment Period Following Edoxaban or Standard of Care Treatment (Adjudicated Composite) [ Time Frame: Randomization to Month 3 ]
