Overview​

AMPLIFY​

AMPLIFY-EXT​

In initial and long-term VTE treatment,​
Eliquis® demonstrated efficacy across subgroups that was generally consistent with the overall results of the trial2

Consistent efficacy across subgroups in initial treatment of VTE between patients​

treated for a PE or DVT2​

For the treatment of VTE and prevention of recurrent Venous Thromboembolism*,​
Eliquis® was studied in two phase III clinical trials2,3​

Study design​

AMPLIFY: In the study a total of 5,395 patients were randomised to treatment with apixaban 10 mg twice daily orally for 7 days followed by apixaban 5 mg twice daily orally for 6 months, or enoxaparin 1 mg/kg twice daily subcutaneously for at least 5 days (until INR≥ 2) and warfarin (target INR range 2.0-3.0) orally for 6 months. The mean age was 56.9 years and 89.8% of randomised patients had unprovoked Venous Thromboembolism events.3​

AMPLIFY-EXT: In the study a total of 2,482 patients were randomised to treatment with apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily orally, apixaban 5 mg twice daily orally, or placebo for 12 months after completing 6 to 12 months of initial anticoagulant treatment. Of these, 836 patients (33.7%) participated in the AMPLIFY study prior to enrollment in the AMPLIFY-EXT study. The mean age was 56.7 years and 91.7% of randomised patients had unprovoked Venous Thromboembolism events.2​
*The recommended dose of apixaban for the prevention of recurrent DVT and PE is 2.5 mg taken orally twice daily.1​

BID: twice daily; DVT: deep-vein thrombosis; INR: International Normalized Ratio; PE: pulmonary embolism; SC: subcutaneous; VTE: venous thromboembolism.​

In AMPLIFY, a study of initial and long-term Venous Thromboembolism treatment,​
the efficacy and safety of Eliquis® vs. Enoxaparin/warfarin was studied in patients with​ DVT or PE (with or without DVT)3
Enoxaparin followed by warfarin​                                     Adapted from Agnelli G, et al. N Engl J Med. 2013.​
Eliquis® compared to enoxaparin/warfarin, For the treatment of acute venous thromboembolism, the AMPLIFY study showed that a fixed-dose regimen of oral apixaban alone was as effective as conventional treatment consisting of enoxaparin followed by warfarin and was associated with a clinically relevant reduction of 69% in major bleeding.3 Eliquis® demonstrated efficacy across subgroups that was generally consistent with the overall results of the trial.3 Eliquis® demonstrated efficacy across subgroups that was generally consistent with the overall results of the trial3 †The P value is for noninferiority.​

BID: twice daily; BMI: body mass index; CI: confidence interval; DVT: deep-vein thrombosis; INR: International Normalized Ratio; LMWH: low molecular weight heparin; PE: pulmonary embolism; SC: subcutaneous; UFH: unfractionated heparin; VTE: venous thromboembolism; RRR: relative risk reduction.​

In AMPLIFY-EXT, a study of extended anticoagulant treatment beyond 6-12 months, ​
The Efficacy And Safety Of Eliquis® vs. Placebo was studied in patients with DVT or PE (with or without DVT)2
Eliquis® demonstrated efficacy* across subgroups that was generally consistent with the overall results of the trial2 This study showed that, as compared with placebo, both the 2.5-mg dose and the 5-mg dose of apixaban reduced the risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism (fatal or nonfatal). These benefits were observed with rates of major bleeding that were low and similar to those in the placebo group. Eliquis® was superior to placebo in protecting patients from Venous Thromboembolism recurrence, with a similar incidence of major bleeding.2 Eliquis® demonstrated efficacy* across subgroups that was generally consistent with the overall results of the trial2 *RRR in recurrent VTE and VTE -related death​2

BID: twice daily; CI: confidence interval; DVT: deep-vein thrombosis; NS: non-significant; PE: pulmonary embolism; RRR: relative risk reduction; VTE: venous thromboembolism.​
