5 NICE technology appraisal guidance on NOACs in VTE Apixaban Recommended as an option for treating and for preventing recurrent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in adults 1 Recommended as an option for the prevention of venous thromboembolism in adults after elective hip or knee replacement surgery 2 Rivaroxaban Recommended as an option for treating deep vein thrombosis and preventing recurrent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism after a diagnosis of acute deep vein thrombosis in adults 3 Recommended as an option for treating pulmonary embolism and preventing recurrent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in adults 4 Recommended as an option for the prevention of venous thromboembolism in adults having elective total hip replacement surgery or elective total knee replacement surgery 5 Dabigatran Recommended as an option for the primary prevention of venous thromboembolic events in adults who have undergone elective total hip replacement surgery or elective total knee replacement surgery 6 Recommended as an option for treating and for preventing recurrent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in adults 7 Edoxaban Recommended as an option for treating and for preventing recurrent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in adults 8

7 Rivaroxaban is increasingly used to treat patients with acute venous thromboembolism (VTE), a potentially life-threatening condition. Because absorption of rivaroxaban decreases from nearly 100% to 66% under fasting conditions, it is recommended that VTE patients take rivaroxaban with a meal. We describe a case of a compliant young patient who developed recurrent pulmonary embolism during rivaroxaban treatment. PK studies provided evidence that malabsorption of rivaroxaban 20 mg due to irregular intake of meals was the leading cause of recurrent pulmonary embolism. When the patient was instructed to take rivaroxaban with a regular meal, peak plasma concentrations increased from 115 to 318 ng ml 1 (+ 176%). Consequently, the importance of taking rivaroxaban with food may have a greater clinical relevance than data from preclinical PK studies suggest.

This new criterion differs from the trial conduct. Adapted from Connolly et al. N Engl J Med 2011;364:

27 ACCP guidance 2012 In patients with an unprovoked PE, we recommend treatment with anticoagulation for at least 3 months over treatment of a shorter duration In patients with a first VTE that is unprovoked proximal and who have a low or moderate bleeding risk we suggest extended anticoagulant therapy over 3 months of therapy. In patients with a first VTE that is unprovoked and who have a high bleeding risk, we recommend 3 months of anticoagulant therapy over extended therapy.
