Filter by:Objective: To prospectively evaluate clinical outcomes during guideline-recommended LMWH dose escalation for recurrent VTE during LMWH or DOAC treatment for cancer-associated thrombosis. Study design: International, prospective, observational cohort study Study population: Adult cancer patients with symptomatic or incidental recurrent VTE while receiving LMWH or DOACs for acute VTE are eligible. Main exclusion criteria include anticoagulant treatment for the recurrent VTE for more than 72 hours, severe hepatic dysfunction, active bleeding, recent major surgery, uncontrolled hypertension, known bleeding diathesis, and a life expectancy of less than 1 month. Study procedures: Patients will be managed at the discretion of the treating physician, who will be encouraged to follow guideline recommendations. These guidelines suggest supra-therapeutic dose LMWH for 4 weeks (+/- 5 days) followed by therapeutic dose LMWH or therapeutic dose DOAC, while it is suggested to treat patients with VTE recurrence during maintenance dose LMWH (i.e. 75 to 80% of full therapeutic weight adjusted dose) with therapeutic dose of LMWH or DOAC. Main study parameters/endpoints: The co-primary outcomes are new symptomatic or incidental recurrent VTE during 3 months of follow-up and on-treatment major bleeding. Secondary outcomes include recurrent incidental VTE, recurrent symptomatic VTE, recurrent incidental or symptomatic proximal or distal DVT, recurrent incidental or symptomatic PE, clinically relevant non-major bleeding, all-cause mortality, and cancer-related mortality. VTE occurring at other sites such as cerebral DVT or splanchnic DVT will also be recorded.
Retrospective chart review to be conducted at Methodist Richardson Medical Center (MRMC) in Richardson, TX. All adult patients hospitalized with COVID-19 on enoxaparin for DVT prophylaxis will be included. Collected data will be analyzed to determine the safety and effectiveness of the varying enoxaparin doses, and results will be presented at the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists Midyear conference in December 2022.
In this prospective, randomised, open-label, parallel group, feasibility trial; the investigators will objectively assess whether it is feasible to apply the Geko device to critically ill adults for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) compared to usual care with intermittent pneumatic compression devices (IPCs).
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label, blinded endpoint study to evaluate the effect of abelacimab relative to dalteparin on venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence and bleeding in patients with gastrointestinal (GI)/genitourinary (GU) cancer associated VTE (Magnolia)
This is a Phase 3,multicenter, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint evaluation study comparing the effect of abelacimab relative to apixaban on venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence and bleeding in patients with cancer associated VTE (ASTER)
This is a prospective chart study that will aim to assess objective data on compliance levels to low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) injections among pregnant and postnatal women undergoing VTE thromboprophylaxis treatment at Cork University Maternity Hospital. This is a study that will help shine light on accurate data for compliance and possible factors affecting it, which will be useful for more individualised treatment plans for future patients. Patients at higher risk of Venous thromboembolism undergoing VTE thromboprophylaxis will be invited to participate in the study. Once the patient reads the information leaflet and signs consent, data will then be collected from the patients medical record. The patient will be given a smart sharps bin with an individual, unique product code. This device will be provided by HealthBeacon, a Dublin based start-up company. The device will be personalised with the treatment schedule pre-loaded onto it. When a used LMWH injection is disposed into the smart sharps bin, an infrared sensor is activated. The system captures an image of the injection in the chamber before moving it to the normal 'sharps' container of the bin for disposal. The captured image is time-stamped and sent to HealthBeacon's electronic database. HealthBeacon will only have the data pertaining to the disposal of injections for each sharps bin (i.e. the timing of the disposal of each used injection in each pre-coded bin). We are blinded to the compliance information and will only will receive the raw Data once treatment is completed. Data will be analysed to determine compliance of LMWH injections. This study will enable us to have a better insight on accurate compliance rates for LMWH injections in pregnant women at higher risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Understanding compliance with LMWH injections and the factors which can affect it, will hopefully guide future information and education that we offer to patients who are prescribed LMWH injections and help decrease maternal mortality rates in future.
This is single centre pilot, randomized controlled trial assessing postpartum prophylactic anticoagulation with 3 weeks of LMWH followed by 3 weeks of Aspirin compared to standard of care of prophylactic LMWH for 6 weeks at moderate to high risk of developing VTE.
Research Question: In adult SCD patients with CVC, is it feasible and safe to conduct an adequately powered RCT to evaluate the use of rivaroxaban as thromboprophylaxis in this population? Study Design: The study is a vanguard pilot double blind multi-centre randomized controlled trial. Participants with SCD and CVC will be randomized to either rivaroxaban 10mg PO daily or placebo for the duration of CVC in situ or for up to one year, whichever is less. After screening (day -7 to day -1), patients will be followed at day 1, months 3 (+/- 15 days), 6 (+/- 15 days), 9 (+/- 15 days), and 12 (+/- 15 days). Study Objectives: The primary objective is to estimate the proportion of eligible patients who will enroll into a trial of thromboprophylaxis. Secondary objectives include (a) document indications for central venous catheter (CVC), (b) summarize duration of CVC insertion prior to enrollment, (c) estimate adherence to the study drug, (d) estimate proportions of participants being compliant with study procedures, and lost to follow up. Exploratory objectives will assess thrombotic, bleeding, and quality of life outcomes.
The purpose of the full trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of prophylactic dose rivaroxaban to prevent VTE among cancer patients with CVC.
The Valeria trial will provide high-quality evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of oral rivaroxaban in thromboprophylaxis after gynecological pelvic cancer surgery in comparison with standard parenteral enoxaparin.
