Poster ISPOR 8th, 2005  3 rd most common cardiovascular disease world-wide after ischaemic heart disease and stroke 1  Causes ~300,000 deaths in the United States and over 500,000 deaths in Europe per year 2,3  In the EU, more than twice as many people die from VTE than from AIDS, breast cancer, prostate cancer and transportation accidents combined 3  3.1 billion Euros per year total estimated costs for VTE-associated care 4 VTE is a Serious Disease that Affects Hundreds of Thousands People each Year

3 3 Known Consequences of VTE  Increased future risk of recurrent VTE  3-10% recurrent VTE at 1-year 1  Chronic post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS)  Fatal Pulmonary Embolism (PE)  Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension  Markedly increased risk of disability and reduced quality of life for the patient  Costs of investigating and treating add considerable healthcare costs 1,3 3 1.Kearon C.

Pulmonary embolus Deep Venous Thromboembolism (DVT)

4 4 PTS is a Relatively Common but Serious Complication  PTS occurs in nearly one-third of pts within 5 years of initial DVT 1  DVT-induced valvular incompetence leads to lower limb hypertension 2  PTS is characterized by 3 :  Pain  Odema  Hyperpigmentation  Eczema  Varicose collateral veins  Severe PTS can lead to intractable, painful venous leg ulcers requiring ongoing nursing and medical care 4 4 © Diepgen TL, et al.

5 5 Desired Characteristics of New Oral Anticoagulants for VTE Treatment  Simplify VTE treatment strategies: one oral anticoagulant for the entire duration of treatment / secondary prevention  Eliminate the need for bridging / switching from a parenteral to an oral anticoagulant  Reduce the length of hospital stay/facilitate earlier hospital discharge  Offer healthcare savings through an improved benefit–risk profile

35 35 Summary  VTE is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition  Current standard of treatment usually requires initial parenteral LMWH/UFH or fondaparinux followed by an oral VKA  For many patients with VTE, secondary prevention with VKA is not extended beyond 6 months since risk of VTE may be outweighed by risk of major bleeding 1  Patients with VTE have a major risk of recurrent VTE that may persist for years 2,3  New oral anticoagulants may have the potential to improve benefit- risk and simplify acute VTE treatment and secondary prevention 35 1.
