Filter by:Glioma patients with history of venous thromboembolism (VTE) treated on low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and who decided with their physician to convert to Apixaban (oral drug) will be enrolled into our study and will collect data regarding recurrent VTE and Intracranial hemorrhage and the incidence of these events.
This study is an international, multicenter, academically sponsored, observational study, that focusses on fertile female patients with proven symptomatic deep vein thrombosis of the legs (DVT) or acute pulmonary embolism (PE). The incidence and severity of abnormal menstrual bleeding will be assessed for each menstrual period and correlated to quality of life. Causes of abnormal menstrual bleeding other than active anticoagulant treatment will be assessed. Treatment of abnormal menstrual bleeding (all within routine clinical care) will be evaluated for efficacy and safety.
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that enoxaparin efficacy is reduced in severe nephrotic syndrome. Another purpose is to compare two dosing regimens.
Interventional, no-randomized, open-label, and single arm multicentre study of apixaban for the prevention of thromboembolic events during induction therapy in transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who receive bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone (VTD) during the induction phase of therapy prior to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). The current study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apixaban during the induction period. Efficacy will be defined as a composite endpoint of acute symptomatic proximal and distal deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, VTE related deaths, and acute ischemic stroke.
Anticoagulants are used to prevent thrombotic events in patients with predisposing factors. However, the use of such therapies is associated with bleeding complications, which can be a serious safety issue. Thus, it is important to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of such therapies based on data collected in clinical practice in order to generate relevant scientific data that could be used to support clinical and regulatory decisions. This is an open, prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study that aims to prospectively record the clinical history of adult patients receiving anticoagulant treatment, irrespectively of the prescribed drug and the indication for its use.
The study aims at optimizing the long-term and extended management of patients with a first episode of venous thromboembolism (proximal deep vein thrombosis with or without pulmonary embolism) (VTE). Patients at high risk of recurrence (with altered D-dimer test), who had received anticoagulation (whatever the drug used) for 12-15 months after the first episode of thrombosis, will be treated with Apixaban 2,5 mg x 2 for 18 months as extended treatment. Patients at low risk, with normal D-dimer test, will stop anticoagulation definitely.
Cancer patients that develop blood clots are treated with low molecular weight heparin injections (LMWH). One kind of these LMWHs, dalteparin, has its dose determined based on a patient's weight using a formula of 200 international units (IU) per kilogram (kg). The current dosing of dalteparin approved by Health Canada has a maximum daily dose of 18 000 IU/day which is weight-adjusted for patients up to 90 kg. Any patient weighing more than 90 kg would take the same dosage regardless of their weight. The aim of this study is to assess the safety of using weight-adjusted dalteparin in cancer-associated venous thromboembolism patients that weigh more than 90 kg.
Thromboprophylaxis options are limited for patients with acute spinal cord injury (SCI) and there are no studies on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for thromboprophylaxis in this population. Participants will be randomized to apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily or standard dose low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), either enoxaparin 40 mg or dalteparin 5000 units, subcutaneously once daily for 90 days or until fully mobilized, whatever comes first. Thromboprophylaxis will be started as soon as hemostasis is achieved. The primary outcome for this pilot study will be the recruitment rate per year (i.e. the screened to enrolled ratio). The primary efficacy endpoint will be a composite of symptomatic, objectively verified, venous thromboembolism (VTE), defined as upper or lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and/or pulmonary embolism (PE) or sudden death where PE cannot be excluded. The primary safety endpoint will be major bleeding.
Comparison of Oral anticoagulants (warfarin, apixaban and rivaroxaban) for extended VEnous Thromboembolism.
This pilot clinical trial compares the safety of two different platelet transfusion "thresholds" among patients with blood cancer or treatment-induced thrombocytopenia whose condition requires anticoagulant medication (blood thinners) for blood clots. Giving relatively fewer platelet transfusions may reduce the side effects of frequent platelet transfusions without leading to undue bleeding.
