The overarching objective of the study is to determine the effectiveness of LMWH/ warfarin vs. DOAC anticoagulation for preventing recurrent VTE in cancer patients. The intervention strategy is Direct Oral AntiCoagulants (DOAC) therapy with edoxaban, apixaban, rivaroxaban, or dabigatran. The comparator is low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) alone or with warfarin. The information gained will empower cancer patients and physicians to make more informed choices about anticoagulation strategies to manage VTE.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the performances of Soluble Fibrin assay for exclusion of Pulmonary Embolism and Deep Venous Thrombosis. Secondary objectives are to determine the threshold value from the ROC curves, the possible interest in the positive diagnosis of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), and to verify the absence of influence of age on the SF results.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the performances of Soluble Fibrin for diagnosing Pulmonary Embolism. Secondary objective is to compare the diagnostic performances of the Soluble Fibrin Assay and the D-Dimer test.
Following the findings of the clinical trials in drug development, this global non-interventional cohort field study will investigate rivaroxaban under clinical practice conditions in comparison with current standard of care for patients with acute venous thoromboembolism (VTE). The main goal is to analyze long-term safety in the use of rivaroxaban in the treatment of acute VTE in routine clinical practice.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) with its two clinical manifestations deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) is a life-threatening disease that is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. The incidence of VTE increases with age and it - as the third most common cardiovascular disease after ischemic heart disease and stroke - represents an important public health problem in industrialized countries with several aspects in need to be addressed. VTEval Project includes three long-term prospective observational studies to evaluate and improve VTE diagnostics and management, treatment and outcome. The aims of the project include a systematic assessment of VTE, i.e. disease status (symptoms, clinical and subclinical aspects) and risk profiles (classic, psychosocial and environmental factors), using a system-oriented approach. VTEval collects three large prospective cohorts of patients with suspected and incident VTE consisting of individuals with a clinical suspicion of acute PE, individuals with a clinical suspicion of acute DVT, and individuals with incidental diagnosis of VTE). The standardized and harmonized data acquisition of the study establishes a sustainable resource for comprehensive research on VTE, thus providing the basis for both short- and long-term analysis.
The primary objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of edoxaban (preceded by a short course of LMWH) compared with dalteparin for the prevention of the combined outcome of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) or major bleeding in subjects with VTE associated with cancer during a 12-month study period. If non-inferiority is established, LMWH/edoxaban will be compared with dalteparin for superiority.
Evaluation of heparin/edoxaban tosylate (DU176b) versus heparin/warfarin in preventing recurrence of blood clots in patients with acute symptomatic deep-vein blood clots in the legs and/or blood clots in the lungs.
Evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of ActiveCare+ CECT device +/- baby dose aspirin (81 mg QD) for lowering the potential risk for bleeding and of DVT during and after THA surgery in comparison with LMWH.
