OCs
"Die zurzeit verfügbaren klinischen Daten zu xxx (product namge) erlauben keine klare *Zuteilung* hinsichtlich des VTE-Risikos zur 2. oder 3. OC-Generation"
Am having trouble putting Zuteilung into so many words here, something like "classification"?
Thanks in advance.
VTE = venous thromboembolism

[rephrase]
I am not sure if they are really talking about classification or allocation in a strict sense. Rather, I understand this sentence to say that, based on currently available data, it is not possible yet to say whether product xxx is more like 2nd generation OCs or 3rd generation OCs in terms of associated VTE risk.

: Probably the safest bet. "Stratification" might be reading too much into it here.

(risk) stratification
You might consider using "(risk) stratification" as this is a term very commonly used in a clinical trial context.

"Building on the updated American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) recommendations for ***VTE risk stratification*** and prevention, the National Quality Forum and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) have begun developing a set of performance measures designed to assess the quality of care for patients at risk of VTE, to achieve a consensus on appropriate ***risk stratification*** and prevention strategies, and to facilitate the adoption of these performance measures within US hospitals. Because of the growing burden of VTE, the severity of the condition, and the potential implementation of JCAHO performance measures, hospital-based clinicians require education on ***risk stratification*** and methods for pharmacologic prophylaxis, as outlined in the updated ACCP guidelines, as well as strategies for the safe and effective use of traditional and newer anticoagulants in specific patient populations."

: What has stratification to do with the asker's context?

You might be right that "stratification" would be reading too much into it in this case. Anne has suggested a viable alternative - see below.
