About this trial
Based on population pharmacokinetic model-based simulation, a 15 mg-equivalent, age-, and bodyweight-adjusted dosing regimen for Chinese children with giant coronary artery aneurysms after acute Kawasaki disease was proposed. This exploratory trial aims to evaluate the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of rivaroxaban compared to warfarin for thromboprophylaxis in children aged over 2 years with giant coronary artery aneurysms after Kawasaki disease
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Giant coronary artery aneurysm(s) in any coronary artery after acute stage of Kawasaki disease. Giant coronary artery aneurysm(s) should be confirmed by two-dimensional echocardiography and meet the diagnostic criteria of Z-score ≥10 or coronary artery internal diameter ≥8mm;
Anticoagulant with antiplatelet drug therapy for anti-thromboprophylaxis is recommended for the next 3 months;
Participant should be able to tolerate oral feeding, nasogastric or gastric feeding;
Children aged ≥ 2 years
Disqualifiers
Active bleeding or bleeding risk contraindicating anticoagulant therapy
With history of venous thromboembolism or risk factors related with venous thromboembolism, like congenital heart disease, carcinoma, central venous catheter or long-term immobilization.
Thrombus within giant coronary aneurysm was confirmed by previous imaging examinations, including two-dimensional echocardiography, computed tomography angiography in coronary artery or coronary angiography
An eGFR <30mL/min/1.73 m2 (For children younger than 1 year, serum creatinine results above 97.5th percentile)
