A Parallel Group Study in Healthy Participants to Quantify Subclinical Gastrointestinal Blood Loss Following Administration of Aspirin Alone or Aspirin in Combination With Rivaroxaban
A Parallel Group Study in Healthy Participants to Quantify Subclinical Gastrointestinal Blood Loss Following Administration of Aspirin Alone or Aspirin in Combination With Rivaroxaban
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether aspirin alone or aspirin combined with various doses of rivaroxaban causes subclinical GI blood loss as determined by the HemoQuant assay.
The secondary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of aspirin alone or in combination with rivaroxaban to healthy volunteers.
