Title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Parallel-Group, Multi-Center, Multi-National Study for the Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of (LMW) Heparin/Edoxaban Versus (LMW) Heparin/Warfarin in Subjects With Symptomatic Deep-Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and or Pulmonary Embolism (PE).
Brief Summary: Evaluation of heparin/edoxaban tosylate (DU176b) versus heparin/warfarin in preventing recurrence of blood clots in patients with acute symptomatic deep-vein blood clots in the legs and/or blood clots in the lungs.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Confirmed acute symptomatic proximal PE with or without symptomatic DVT

Exclusion Criteria:

* Legal lower age limitations (country specific)
* Thrombectomy, insertion of a caval filter, or use of a fibrinolytic agent to treat the current episode of DVT and/or PE
* Other indication for VKA than DVT and/or PE
* The pre-randomization anti-coagulant treatment (Criteria # 4) has been prolonged from 36 hours to a maximum of 48 hours.
B: Inclusion criteria:

1. Patients with confirmed symptomatic PE or proximal DVT of the leg(s) who have been treated for 6 to 18 months with therapeutic dosages (intended INR between 2-3) of an oral VKA (e.g. warfarin, acenocoumarol, phenprocoumon, or fluindione) or RE-COVER study medication up to the moment of screening for the current study.
2. Written informed consent

Exclusion criteria:

1. Younger then 18 years of age
2. Indication for VKA other than DVT and/or PE
3. Patients in whom anticoagulant treatment for their index PE or DVT should be continued
4. Active liver disease or liver disease decreasing survival (e.g. acute hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, cirrhosis) or ALAT \> 3 x ULN
5. Creatinine clearance \< 30 ml/min
6. Acute bacterial endocarditis
7. Active bleeding or high risk for bleeding.
8. Uncontrolled hypertension (investigators judgement)
9. Intake of another experimental drug within the 30 days prior to randomization into the study
10. Life expectancy \<6 months
11. Childbearing potential without proper contraceptive measures\*, pregnancy or breast feeding
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patient undergoing major abdominal surgery (open surgery under general anesthesia lasting more than 45 minutes in the peritoneal and/or retroperitoneal space and/or pelvis).
* Patient \<60 years of age had to have one of the following additional risk factors for VTE:

  * History of VTE,
  * Obesity,
  * Chronic Heart failure,
  * Chronic Respiratory Failure,
  * Inflammatory Bowel Disease,
  * Cancer Surgery.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any major orthopedic or general surgery in the 3 months prior to study start;
* Clinical signs or symptoms of DVT or PE within the last 12 months or known post phlebitic syndrome;
* Any contra-indications to the performance of venography;
* High risk of bleeding;
* Known hypersensitivity to heparin or Enoxaparin sodium;
* End stage renal disease or patient on dialysis.

The above information was not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Male or female subjects older than the minimum legal adult age (country specific);
* Acute symptomatic proximal DVT and/or symptomatic PE confirmed at the site by appropriate diagnostic imaging;
* Able to provide written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

* thrombectomy, insertion of a caval filter, or use of a fibrinolytic agent to treat the current episode of DVT and/or PE;
* More than 48 hours pre-treatment with anticoagulant therapy prior to randomization;
* Calculated Creatinine clearance (CrCL) \< 30 mL/min;
* significant liver disease (e.g., acute hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, cirrhosis) or alanine transaminase (ALT) \>\\= 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), or total bilirubin (TBL) x 1.5 times the ULN;
* patients with active cancer for whom long term treatment with (LMW) heparin is anticipated;
* active bleeding or high risk for bleeding contraindicating treatment with (LMW) heparin or warfarin;
* chronic treatment with non-aspirin non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs);
* treatment with aspirin in a dosage of more than 100 mg/per day or dual antiplatelet therapy;
* concurrent treatment with potent P-gp inhibitors;
* subjects with any condition that, as judged by the investigator, would place the subject at increased risk of harm if he/she participated in the study
