Title: Randomized, Open-label, Parallel-group, Active-controlled Study of Rivaroxaban in Patients With Acute Symptomatic Pulmonary Embolism, With or Without Symptomatic Deep Vein Thrombosis
Brief Summary: The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of rivaroxaban in the treatment of pulmonary embolism (PE) and the prevention of the occurrence and the recurrence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or PE in Japanese patients with acute symptomatic PE with or without symptomatic DVT.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Men and women \>/= 20 years of age in patients with confirmed acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE) with or without symptomatic deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Thrombectomy, insertion of a caval filter, or use of a fibrinolytic agent to treat the current episode of PE
* More than 48 hours pre-randomization treatment with therapeutic dosages of anti-coagulant treatment or more than a single dose of warfarin from the onset of the current episode of PE to randomization
* Calculated creatinine clearance (CLCR) \< 30 mL/min
* Subjects with hepatic disease which is associated with coagulopathy leading to a clinically relevant bleeding risk
* Active bleeding or high risk for bleeding contraindicating treatment with unfractioned Heparin (UFH) or warfarin
* Systolic blood pressure \> 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \> 110 mmHg
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients with confirmed symptomatic PE or DVT who have been treated for 6 or 12 months with VKA or rivaroxaban

Exclusion Criteria:

* Legal lower age limitations (country specific)
* Indication for VKA other than DVT and/or PE
* Patients in whom anticoagulant treatment for their index PE or DVT should be continued
* Childbearing potential without proper contraceptive measures, pregnancy or breast feeding. Proper contraceptive measures are defined as a method of contraception with a failure rate \< 1 % during the course of the study (including the observational period). These methods of contraception according to the note for guidance on non-clinical safety studies for the conduct of human trials for pharmaceuticals (CPMP \[Committee for Proprietary Medicinal Products\]/ICH \[International Conference on Harmonization\]/286/95, modification) include consistent and correct use of hormone containing implants and injectables, combined oral contraceptives, hormone containing intrauterine devices, surgical sterilization, sexual abstinence and vasectomy
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Consecutive patients with a first, symptomatic, objectively confirmed proximal DVT diagnosed within the last 14 days (with or without concurrent distal DVT or pulmonary embolism)
* Who have no contraindications to standard treatment with heparin and/or warfarin, and
* Who provide informed consent to participate

Exclusion Criteria:

* Contraindication to compression stockings
* Limited lifespan (estimated \< 6 months)
* Geographic inaccessibility preventing return for follow-up visits
* Inability to apply stockings daily and unavailability of a caregiver to apply stockings daily
* Treatment of acute DVT with thrombolytic agents
D: Inclusion criteria:

* Acute symptomatic uni- or bilateral Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) of the leg involving proximal veins, and/or Pulmonary Embolism (PE)
* Male or female, being 18 years of age or older
* Written informed consent for study participation

Exclusion criteria:

* Persistent symptoms of VTE
* PE requiring urgent intervention
* Use of vena cava filter
* Contraindications to anticoagulant therapy
* Allergy to study medications
* Elevated Aspartate-aminotransferase (AST) or Alanine-aminotransferase (ALT) \> 3x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) or known liver disease expected to have an impact on survival
* Severe renal impairment
* Patients considered unsuitable for inclusion
