Filter by:The aim of the study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of dabigatran etexilate solution in children aged less than 1 year, to demonstrate comparable PK/PD relationship to older children and adults and to confirm dabigatran etexilate dosing algorithm for children aged less than 1 year.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of the prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism in the critical ill patients, and at the same time, to find out the risk of venous thromboembolism and hemorrhage events occurred under the prophylaxis.
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.
This open-label, single arm prospective cohort study will assess the safety of dabigatran etexilate in secondary prevention of venous thromboembolism in paediatric patients. Children from 0 to less than 18 years of age will be eligible to participate.
The primary objective of this multicenter, prospective, single arm clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Angel® Catheter in subjects at high risk of PE, and with recognized contraindications to standard pharmacological therapy (anticoagulation).
The arrival on the market of direct oral factor Xa and factor IIa inhibitors (dabigatran (Pradaxa®), rivaroxaban (Xarelto®), apixaban (Eliquis®) and others soon to come) raises novel questions among clinicians confronted with the emergency management of patients treated with these new drugs. It is likely that these new oral anticoagulants (NOACs) will eventually win a significant market share in the indications secondary prevention of venous thromboembolism and prevention of cardioembolic events in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, due to their net clinical benefit and their practicality of use compared with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs). However, despite the fact that NOACs reduce the incidence of intracranial bleeding by about half compared with VKAs, the risk remains significant; furthermore, in clinical trials, these drugs had little or no effect on reducing the incidence of major extracranial bleeding. In everyday practice, where the indication could be expanded to unselected populations and due to a potential for misuse, it is likely that the incidence of bleeding complications will be higher than that reported in clinical trials. Indeed, the numerous alerts emanating from regulatory agencies in various countries (US, Australia, etc.) bear witness to this, and should serve as a reminder that these anticoagulants have a real potential for bleeding complications and, in the absence of an antidote, there is no validated management strategy. Furthermore, as these drugs can be prescribed for months or years, patients may eventually be exposed to situations at high hemorrhagic risk, such as emergency surgery or invasive procedures, trauma, etc. Analysis of data from the trial : dabigatran versus warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation (RE-LY) showed that during the two years of follow-up, approximately 25% of the patients underwent an invasive procedure, ranging from pacemaker insertion to major surgery. Thus, a large proportion of patients treated with NOACs are concerned by this issue. In anticipation of a gradually increasing influx of patients in a critical situation (active bleeding or need to rapidly secure hemostasis before an invasive procedure), it is urgent to define the conduct to adopt based on the experience gained from the earliest cases. This is the objective of the French-speaking GIHP-NACO observatory set up by the GIHP (French Working Group on Perioperative Hemostasis). For the moment, then, the management recommendations derive from expert opinions based on pharmacokinetic data and on the partial correction of NOAC-induced hypocoagulability by various nonspecific procoagulants (non-activated or activated prothrombin complex concentrates, recombinant factor VIIa). These procoagulants are currently used in an empirical manner to control bleeding, with as many successes as failures reported in the literature, and their benefit-risk ratio in these patients is therefore uncertain.
To determine the PK profile of a single dose 150 mg BIBR 1048, oral capsule, administered 1-3 hours post surgery in hip replacement patients.
- To determine the therapeutic window of BIBR 1048 in order to select doses for further studies in the development plan. - Twice daily regimen will be tested for most dose levels and once daily administration will also be evaluated when appropriate.
The protocol is a large registry to describe acute, sub-acute and extended duration of anticoagulation management, clinical and economic duration of anticoagulation management, clinical and economic outcomes in patients with treated acute VTE (DVT and PE) in the real-world setting. Main objectives are to clarify the: - treatment related details for acute VTE (either conventional anticoagulation therapy, treatment with a direct oral anti-coagulant or other modalities of treatment) - Rate of early and late symptomatic VTE recurrence - Rate and nature of complications of VTE including post thrombotic syndrome and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension - Rate of bleeding complications - Rate of all-cause mortality at six months
Cancer patients are at increased risk of deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, collectively termed venous thromboembolism (VTE). Risk assessment scores for VTE in cancer patients have been previously developed by the groups of Khorana and Vienna CATS. However, routine thromboprophylaxis for ambulatory cancer patients based on these scores is currently not recommended. In the investigators prospective, observational cohort study, the investigators aim to identify cancer patients at high risk for VTE based on clinical characteristics, coagulation biomarkers and the coagulant activity of tissue factor bearing microparticles.
