Thromboembolism Clinical Trial
— GIFTOfficial title:
Genetics Informatics Trial (GIFT) of Warfarin to Prevent Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT)
Blood clots contribute to the death of at least 100,000 Americans each year. Because many of these deaths occur suddenly where treatment is impossible, the best treatment is prevention. With this grant, researchers in Missouri, New York, Utah, Illinois, and Texas are developing strategies to improve the safety and effectiveness of clot prevention by customizing a popular blood thinner (warfarin) to each person's genetic and clinical profile. They hypothesize that the use of genetics to guide warfarin therapy will reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) postoperatively. They further hypothesize that using a target international normalized ratio (INR) of 1.8 is non-inferior to using a target INR of 2.5 in VTE prevention.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | For Aim 1: The composite outcome of: non-fatal venous thromboembolism (VTE), non-fatal major hemorrhage, INR>=4.0, and death. | 30-days, except that VTE may be detected up to day 60 | Yes | |
Primary | For Aim 2: The composite outcome of: non-fatal venous thromboembolism (VTE) and death. | 30-days for death; 60 days for VTE | Yes | |
Secondary | Percent Time in Therapeutic INR Range | We also we report INR Variability using the method of Lind et al. (2012 Thrombosis research). | 4-28 days | No |
Secondary | Composite Outcomes | We will compare the two arms in Aim 2 using the same composite outcome from Aim 1: VTE, major hemorrhage, death, or INR >= 4.0. | 30 days for death; 60 days for VTE, major bleed, INR >=4.0. | No |
Secondary | Ranked Outcomes | Outcomes will be ranked using the following tiers in hierarchical order, from worst to best: (1) death; (2) PE; (3) Major bleed; (4) symptomatic DVT; (5) INR >= 4 with minor bleed; (6) asymptomatic DVT; (7) INR >= 4 (w/out major/minor bleed); (8) PTTR. Events that happen earliest receive the lowest (worst) score. For PTTR, lower time in the target INR range is worse. This approach, similar to that used in the RELAX trial (Redfield et al. 2013) weighs outcomes according to their clinical relevance. Ranks will be compared using a standard non-parametric test (Mann-Whitney 1947) to determine if one arm improves outcomes. |
4-28 days for PTTR (INR variability); 30 days for death; 60 days for VTE. | No |
Secondary | Time to first laboratory event (INR > 1.5 + Target INR) | Maximum of 90 days; median time to last INR is 28 days | Yes |
