Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - Shortened duration (6 weeks) of anticoagulant therapy
Other interventions - Conventional duration (3 months) of anticoagulant therapy
Other interventions - No Intervention
Other interventions - No Intervention

Experimental: Intervention: A - Patients with non-occlusive thrombus or resolved thrombosis at 6 weeks.

Active comparator: B - Patients with non-occlusive thrombus or resolved thrombosis at 6 weeks.

Other: Parallel Cohort: Persistent Occlusive Thrombosis - Patients with completely occlusive thrombosis at 6 weeks.

Other: Parallel Cohort: Persistent Antiphospholipid Antibody - Patients with persistent Positive Antiphospholipid Antibody at 6 weeks.


Other interventions: Shortened duration (6 weeks) of anticoagulant therapy
Subjects with evidence of non-occlusive or resolved thrombus at 6 weeks time will be randomized to receive a total duration of anticoagulant therapy of 6 weeks.

Other interventions: Conventional duration (3 months) of anticoagulant therapy
Subjects with evidence of non-occlusive or resolved thrombus at 6 weeks time will be randomized to receive a total duration of anticoagulant therapy of 3 months.

Other interventions: No Intervention
Subjects with evidence of persistent thrombus at 6 weeks time will remain on anticoagulant therapy for 3-6 months at the discretion of their treating physician.

Other interventions: No Intervention
Subjects with evidence of persistent antiphospholipid antibody at 6 weeks will remain on anticoagulant therapy for 3 months to indefinite duration, at the discretion of their treating physician.

3. Systemic lupus erythematosus
4. Pulmonary embolism that is not accompanied by DVT or is more proximal than segmental branches of the pulmonary artery
5. Use of, or intent to use, thrombolytic therapy
6. Chronic anticoagulant at prophylactic dosing is being or will be administered beyond 6 months post VTE diagnosis
7. Moderate/severe anticoagulant deficiency (defined by any one of the following):

1. protein C <20 IU/dL if patient is =3 months of age, or protein C below lower limit of detection if patient is <3 months of age;
2. antithrombin <30 IU/dL if patient is =3 months of age, or antithrombin below lower limit of detection if patient is <3 months of age;
3. protein S (free antigen or activity) <20 IU/dL.
