Thrombocytopenia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Management Patterns of AntiThrombotics and Outcomes in Patients With Hematological Malignancy and ThrombocytopEnia: a Prospective Registry (MATTER Study)
Background: Antithrombotic therapy in the context of treatment related thrombocytopenia (i.e.
low levels of platelets) is not uncommon. Guidelines are based upon a paucity of
retrospective data and focus on the scenario of cancer associated venous thrombosis and low
molecular weight heparin treatment. Even less is known regarding direct oral anticoagulants,
antiplatelet therapy, or anticoagulation prescribed for other indications.
Aims: The study aims are to evaluate how physicians manage anticoagulant and antiplatelet
medication in patients with hematological malignancy and thrombocytopenia, and to assess the
frequency of bleeding and thrombosis. Additional aims are to assess how management changes
affect drug activity and blood clotting (coagulation), and to evaluate the use of platelet
transfusions.
Design: The investigators plan a multinational prospective registry of patients admitted to
the inpatient hematology department or outpatient clinic at one of the study centers.
Patients with hematological malignancies, platelets below 50 X 109/L, and anticoagulant
and/or antiplatelet medication will be studied.
Patients will be enrolled when the combination of antiplatelet/anticoagulant medication and
thrombocytopenia is first detected. Patients will be followed until 30 days after the
baseline study visit (which occurs 30 days after enrollment or when platelets < 50*109/L,
whichever come first) or death. Patients will be indexed at the time of baseline visit.
Patients will be excluded from study analysis if one of the following events occurs before
study index: Withdrawal of consent, death, clinically-relevant non-major bleeding or the
composite primary outcome.
Risk factors for bleeding and thrombosis will be recorded at baseline. Parameters from
routine blood tests will be recorded throughout the study. During the study major bleeding
events and thrombosis will be recorded. Investigational blood tests assessing coagulation and
drug activity will be drawn at baseline (=study index). Throughout the study all management
decisions regarding antithrombotic therapy, including platelet and red blood cell
transfusion, will be recorded. This is an observational study and management will be solely
at the discretion of the physician.
Analysis: The investigators will first look at the frequency of either bleeding or thrombosis
according to the type of management strategy and evaluate the platelet threshold at which a
given management strategy is employed.
At the next stage, in selected subgroups, the optimal management strategy with respect to
bleeding/thrombotic risk, will be determined.
- Thrombocyte-level cohorts Patients will be divided into two groups based on the platelet
level at study index .
1. Thrombocytopenic Cohort: Patients with morning platelet count below 50*109/L at
study index. This is the main study cohort for all analyses
2. Non-thrombocytopenic Cohort: Patients whose morning platelet count is ≥ 50*109/L at
study index will be considered as a reference group, and not included in the
primary analysis.
- Analysis of outcomes:
By definition, there will be an intervention at the time of study index (baseline), meaning
that even if no change is made, it will be considered an intervention. Each patient may have
multiple exposures/interventions over the study.
Therefore, in a time dependent analysis, each outcome will be linked to the
exposure/intervention at study index.
Each exposure/intervention will be linked with the platelet level on the day of the
intervention.
#Competing Events:
The following events (in addition to death) will be considered competing events and will be
considered as such in the statistical analyses of the outcomes:
1. The composite primary outcome
2. change in the antithrombotic regimen after study index
3. diagnosis of HIT or TTP
4. a change in the hematological malignancy treatment regimen. Study follow-up will
continue after these events, and study data will continue to be recorded until
censorship for end of study period or death.
- Detecting selection bias:
Patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria but not included in the study, will be detected by
reviewing the medical records of the hematology institute, weekly. The baseline
characteristics and reason for not including these patients will be recorded retrospectively
in the "not-included cohort". The baseline characteristics of this cohort will be compared
with the study cohort to ascertain whether selection bias exists.
