We aimed to determine whether the risk of CRB is higher with rivaroxaban than apixaban during extended treatment, either at full or reduced dose.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n \n The RENOVE open-label randomised controlled trial compared full-dose\n versus<\/jats:italic>\n reduced-dose of apixaban or rivaroxaban in patients who had completed at least 6\u2005months of full-dose treatment for VTE and required extended anticoagulation. Drug choice was not randomised. In this post-analysis, the primary outcome was centrally-adjudicated CRB events. Treatment effects were estimated using crude hazard ratio (HR), adjusted HR, and an inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Among 2768 enrolled patients, 1513 received rivaroxaban (755 full-dose, 758 reduced-dose) and 1255 apixaban (630 full-dose, 625 reduced-dose). Median age was 62.6\n versus<\/jats:italic>\n 66.5\u2005years and proportion of female was 32.1%\n versus<\/jats:italic>\n 38.7%, respectively. Median follow-up was 37\u2005months. The 5-year cumulative incidence of CRB was 11.7% with rivaroxaban and 13.7% with apixaban (adjusted-HR 0.90 [95%CI 0.70\u20131.17], HR\n IPTW<\/jats:sub>\n 0.92 [0.70\u20131.21]). The incidence of major bleeding, recurrent VTE, composite outcome, arterial thromboembolic events, and all-cause death were similar. Serious adverse event not related to VTE and CRB was 7.7% and 10.8%, respectively (adjusted-HR 0.74 [95% CI 0.57\u20130.97], HR\n IPTW<\/jats:sub>\n 0.76 [0.55\u20131.04]).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n During extended anticoagulation, no difference in clinically relevant bleeding or recurrent VTE was observed between rivaroxaban and apixaban, although that non-randomised treatment allocation possibly influenced outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n
