Oral Rivaroxaban Compared with Subcutaneous Enoxaparin for Extended Thromboprophylaxis after Total Hip Arthroplasty: The RECORD1 Trial.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Background Thromboprophylaxis for at least 10 days and for up to 4–5 weeks is recommended after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Rivaroxaban is an oral, direct Factor Xa inhibitor in advanced clinical development for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. RECORD1 was a phase III, multinational, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy trial, conducted to determine the efficacy and safety of oral rivaroxaban, compared with subcutaneous enoxaparin, for 5 weeks of thromboprophylaxis in patients undergoing THA. Methods Patients received rivaroxaban 10 mg beginning 6–8 hours after surgery and once daily (od) thereafter, or enoxaparin 40 mg od, beginning the evening before surgery (restarting 6–8 hours after surgery). Therapy continued for 35±4 days and mandatory, bilateral venography was conducted the next day. The primary efficacy endpoint was the composite of any deep vein thrombosis (DVT), non-fatal pulmonary embolism (PE), and all-cause mortality. The primary efficacy analysis was a test for non-inferiority in the per-protocol (PP) population, followed by a test for superiority in the modified intention-to-treat (mITT) population. The main secondary efficacy endpoint was major venous thromboembolism (VTE): the composite of proximal DVT, non-fatal PE and VTE-related death. Major and non-major bleeding during the active treatment period were the primary and secondary safety endpoints, respectively. Results A total of 4541 patients were randomized; 4433 were eligible for the safety population, 3153 for the mITT population, and 3029 for the PP population. The criteria for non-inferiority were met and testing for superiority was performed. Rivaroxaban significantly reduced the incidence of the primary efficacy endpoint (p<0.001) and major VTE (p<0.001), compared with enoxaparin, in the mITT population (Table). The incidence of major and non-major bleeding events was similar in both groups (Table). Conclusions Rivaroxaban was significantly more effective than enoxaparin for extended prophylaxis after THA, with a similar safety profile. This is the first pivotal trial to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of a fixed, unmonitored dose of an oral, direct Factor Xa inhibitor - rivaroxaban - for extended thromboprophylaxis after THA.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
