Abstract
EDOSURE is a trial program of the direct oral anticoagulant drug edoxaban, comprising ten randomized clinical trials of which eight are currently published. They evaluate the use of edoxaban in the treatment of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation and acute venous thromboembolism, including in special circumstances such as patients undergoing cardiac procedures, cancer-associatedvenous thromboembolism, and elderly patients whose bleeding risk precludes conventional anticoagulation strategies. As a result of the collective evidence generated by EDOSURE, edoxaban is now recommended as a treatment option by numerous international guidelines. This review summarizes the context, rationale, and key findings of the studies.
