Filter by:The use of coumarins has been a challenge for doctors because of its narrow therapeutic range and they show great inter and intra-individual variability in the dose necessary to achieve an international normalized ratio (INR) within the therapeutic range. Among the factors influencing the interindividual variability in the dose required include age, weight, Vitamin K in the diet, comorbidity as well as drug interactions and in recent years has also seen the importance of pharmacogenetic factors.
According to the Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) staging treatment guideline, sorafenib is recommended for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) with Portal Vein Tumor Thrombosis (PVTT), but HCC with major PVTT (in the main trunk or 1st-order branches of the portal vein) did not benefit much from sorafenib in previous studies. There is no established standard treatment for HCC patients with major PVTT, the investigators conducted a randomized, phase 2 study to investigate the survival benefit of sorafenib plus Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with Oxaliplatin and Fluorouracil versus sorafenib for Hepatocellular Carcinoma with Major Portal Vein Tumor Thrombosis.
This study evaluates the responsiveness of the Platelet Function Analyzer (PFA-100) to the effect of energy drinks on platelet function. Participants' will have blood drawn prior to and 60 minutes after ingesting 250ml of a commercially available sugar-free energy drink.
Oral antithrombotic medications (OAM) are used for the prevention and treatment of thrombotic disorders. Among hemorrhagic complications of OAMs, intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) may have particularly devastating consequences with high morbidity, disability and mortality rates. The efficacy and safety profiles of OAMs are generally assessed in randomized controlled trials (RCT), but included patients are often highly selected and may not be representative of users in everyday clinical practice in terms of follow-up routines, age, gender, drug compliance, and polypharmacy. Moreover, it is often unclear whether or not traumatic ICHs are registered and reported in RCTs. Drifts in indications and treatment criteria may also be seen in everyday practice and drug discontinuation due to precautionary concerns including compliance, fall risk and comorbidity may be forgotten. Collectively, these factors may lead to other and potentially higher traumatic ICH rates in general clinical use than reported in RCTs. The incidence rates of traumatic ICH in patients on OAMs in the general population remain unknown. In this nationwide registry based pharmacoepidemiological study we will investigate the incidence and case fatality of traumatic ICH in users of OAMs in Norway from 2008 through 2014.
The purpose of this study is to compare aspirin versus low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) (Enoxaparin) as a thromboprophylaxis in patients who sustain a fracture.
A single oral dose of BMS-986177 administered to subjects of mild hepatic impairment, moderate hepatic impairment and healthy matched subjects to evaluate pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability in these subjects
The purpose of this study is to compare the novel oral anticoagulant apixaban with the standard therapy of warfarin on the size reduction or resolution of left ventricular thrombus over 3 months.
To investigate the safety and pharmacokinetics of apixaban in children with congenital or acquired heart disease who have a need for anticoagulation.
The purpose of this study is to determine if fixed dose heparin infusions at a rate of 500 units/hour are sufficient to maintain a target anti-Xa of 0.1-0.35 IU/mL for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in patients undergoing microvascular surgery. Additionally, a pilot protocol has been developed to titrate these heparin infusions to ensure patients have sufficient VTE prophylaxis. All patients will be enrolled in the observational arm of the study and receive anti-Xa level monitoring. Patients with out-of-range anti-Xa levels will cross over to the interventional arm of the study and receive real time heparin infusion dose adjustments per the pilot protocol. The primary outcome measured will be the percentage of patients with anti-Xa levels in the target range of 0.1-0.35 IU/mL while on a heparin infusion at 500 units/hour.
This study is to evaluate the effect of rifampin on the single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of BMS-986177 in healthy participants with parameters like Cmax, AUC(INF), AUC(0-T)
