The modified intention-to-treat population included all the patients who had received at least one dose of a trial medication and had a venogram within the prespecified time window that could be evaluated, a documented symptomatic venous thromboembolic event, or a fatal event. The safety population included all the patients who had received at least one dose of a trial medication. Percentages may not total 100 because of rounding.

Enoxaparin was administered subcutaneously at a dose of 40 mg once daily.

Race was reported by the patient. Three patients in the group receiving 50 mg of milvexian once daily and two in the enoxaparin group chose not to report information on race.

§

Creatinine clearance values were calculated with the use of the Cockcroft and Gault equation.

Patients may have undergone more than one type of anesthesia.

The normal range for factor XI clotting activity is 60 to 150%.

**

The normal range for the activated partial-thromboplastin time is 22 to 29 seconds.
