NCT06628778
Critically ill adolescents are at greatest risk for developing hospital-acquired venous thromboembolism. To date, no phase 3 randomized controlled trials have been conducted for pharmacological thromboprophylaxis as primary venous thromboembolism prevention in children. The investigators will perform a United States definitive multicenter phase 3 randomized controlled trial of the low molecular weight heparin enoxaparin as primary venous thromboembolism prophylaxis among critically ill adolescents who are classified a priori as high risk based upon the investigators validated risk prediction models.
NCT05449327
Venous thromboembolism is a serious complication after total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR). Previous studies have reported the incidence of both asymptomatic and symptomatic deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after TKR were higher in Taiwan than other countries in Asia. Therefore, the usage of prophylactic antithrombotics should be considered. The efficacy and safety of Xarelto (Rivaroxaban) for preventing venous thromboembolism has been proved. However, there is a lack of study using prospective design to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xarelto after THR and TKR for Taiwanese. In this study, the investigators use a randomized controlled trial design comparing the incidence of DVT, pulmonary embolism, and complications between intervention and control groups.
NCT07499661
This study focuses on two serious and common medical conditions: heart failure and pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lungs). Heart failure happens when the heart cannot pump blood effectively, and it is one of the main reasons older adults are admitted to the hospital. Pulmonary embolism can be life-threatening and may worsen heart failure or even trigger it. Doctors believe that pulmonary embolism may often go undetected in patients who come to the hospital with symptoms of acute heart failure, such as sudden shortness of breath. This is because both conditions can cause similar symptoms, making it difficult to tell them apart. As a result, doctors may sometimes assume the symptoms are only due to heart failure and not investigate further for a possible blood clot. However, missing a pulmonary embolism can have serious consequences. Studies suggest that some patients with heart failure who die may actually have had an undiagnosed pulmonary embolism. Current medical guidelines recommend checking for pulmonary embolism when the cause of breathing problems is unclear, but in real-life practice, this is not always done. The goal of this study is to find out whether pulmonary embolism is underdiagnosed in patients with suspected acute heart failure and whether systematically testing for it could improve patient outcomes. To do this, the study will compare two approaches in several hospitals. In half of the hospitals, doctors will follow their usual practice and decide case by case whether to test for pulmonary embolism. In the other half, doctors will systematically test all eligible patients for pulmonary embolism using recommended diagnostic methods. Adult patients admitted with recent or worsening breathing difficulties and signs of acute heart failure may be included in the study, provided they give their consent. Researchers will collect information about their symptoms, tests, diagnosis, and treatments. Patients will be monitored during their hospital stay and for three months afterward. The study will track important outcomes such as survival, new blood clots, bleeding events, repeated hospital visits for breathing problems, and overall time spent in the hospital. The researchers expect to include about 740 patients in total. They estimate that pulmonary embolism may be found in about 1% of patients with usual care, but up to 5% when doctors systematically look for it. This study aims to better understand how often pulmonary embolism occurs in patients with acute heart failure and whether more systematic testing could lead to earlier diagnosis and better care. The results could help improve medical practice and reduce complications or deaths related to missed diagnoses.
NCT06193863
This is an observational study in which the data from children with congenital heart disease will be collected and studied. These children will include those who are prescribed rivaroxaban by their doctors after a heart surgery called the Fontan procedure. Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a heart problem that some children are born with. It sometimes requires a surgery called the Fontan procedure to improve the blood flow in the body. The Fontan procedure can increase the risk of the formation of blood clots in the blood vessels (called thrombosis), which might lead to death. The study drug, rivaroxaban, is an approved treatment for preventing the formation of blood clots. It is a type of anticoagulant that prevents the blood from clotting by blocking a protein responsible for it. Rivaroxaban can increase the risk of bleeding. A previous study suggested that the number of major bleeding episodes did not differ much while taking rivaroxaban compared to aspirin in children with CHD who had undergone the Fontan procedure. However, there is limited information available for Japanese patients. To better understand the safety and potential risks of this drug in children, more knowledge is needed about the use of rivaroxaban in the real world. The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the occurrence of major bleeding or non-major bleeding in children who were treated with rivaroxaban. Major bleeding is defined as a serious or life-threatening bleeding episode that can have an impact on a person's health and requires medical attention. Non-major bleeding is defined as a type of bleeding that may negatively impact a person's health if not treated. The data will be collected from December 2023 to June 2026. Researchers will observe each participant for up to 30 days after stopping the treatment or for a maximum of 2 years. In this study, only available data from regular health visits will be collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study. Researchers will use the medical records or interview the children and/or their guardians during regular visits.
NCT06073366
This observational study aims to establish a prospective nationwide cohort of venous thromboembolism. The main questions it mains to answer are: * Which patients with venous thromboembolism should accept long-term anticoagulation therapy? * Mechanism and prognosis of venous thromboembolism. Participants will receive yearly follow-ups through telephone, hospitalization, or outpatient care.
NCT05900388
This is an observational study in which only data are collected from participants receiving their usual treatment. The study is done in children under 2 years old with venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a condition in which blood clots form in the veins, usually in the leg. This can cause pain and swelling. The clot can also break apart and travel in the blood to the lungs where it can block the blood flow. This can be life threatening. Rivaroxaban is approved for doctors to prescribe to children with VTE, but there is limited information about how it is used, how well it works, and how safe it is in children under 2 years old. Children in this study are already receiving or will receive rivaroxaban or other currently used medicines for VTE from their doctor according to the approved product information. The purpose of this study is to collect information on the pattern of use and safety of rivaroxaban and other standard medicines for VTE in children under 2 years old. The main information that researchers will collect in this study: * Age, gender, and other information about the child and their illness * Type of VTE treatment given to the child * Occurrence of medically important bleeding and its severity Further information that researchers will collect: * Changes in the characteristics of the children given VTE treatment (e.g., changes in the age range of children given VTE treatment) and changes in the treatment pattern for VTE * Return of VTE symptoms * Types of doctors who prescribe VTE treatment and their set-up (e.g., special clinics versus hospitals) Besides this data collection, no further tests or examinations are needed in this study. The data for this study will be collected from electronic health records and health insurance claims data until 2026. Researchers will observe each child during treatment until: * end of the anticoagulation treatment period e.g. discontinuation of all study drugs, * their information is no longer available, or * the study ends.

NCT03728166
Hospitalized medical patients have an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) across the continuum of care, including after hospital discharge. In the APEX Trial of hospitalized patients with acute medical illness, extended-duration post-discharge thromboprophylaxis with oral betrixaban reduced the frequency of asymptomatic proximal deep venous thrombosis (DVT), symptomatic proximal or distal DVT, symptomatic nonfatal pulmonary embolism (PE), or VTE-related death compared with short-duration enoxaparin. Obstacles to integration of these data in the hospitalized Medical Service patient population, including failure to identify at-risk patients, educational gaps in strategies for VTE prevention after discharge, and medication nonadherence, can be overcome with alert-based computerized decision support. This study is a single-center, 400-patient, randomized controlled trial of an EPIC Best Practice Advisory (BPA; alert-based computerized decision support tool) to increase prescription of extended-duration post-discharge thromboprophylaxis and decrease symptomatic VTE in high-risk patients hospitalized with medical illness. Specific Aim #1: To determine the impact of electronic alert-based CDS (EPIC Best Practice Advisory \[BPA\]) on prescription of extended-duration post-discharge thromboprophylaxis in high-risk patients hospitalized with medical illness who are not being prescribed any prophylactic anticoagulation for VTE prevention after discharge. Specific Aim #2: To estimate the impact of electronic alert-based CDS (EPIC BPA) on the frequency of symptomatic VTE in high-risk patients hospitalized with medical illness who are not being prescribed any prophylactic anticoagulation for VTE prevention after discharge.

NCT07140523
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel group, blinded endpoint evaluation, active-controlled, dose-finding study.This study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of 3 dose levels of SRSD107 and enoxaparin 40 mg daily in subjects undergoing elective primary unilateral TKA.
NCT07310693
This study aims to externally validate the CLOVER score, a machine learning-based predictive model designed to identify patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) who are at increased risk of having an occult cancer. The study includes a retrospective cohort of patients with acute symptomatic VTE diagnosed between 2000 and 2022, and a prospective cohort of consecutively recruited patients from December 2025 to December 2027. The CLOVER model will be applied to all participants, and its ability to discriminate between patients with and without occult cancer will be evaluated. The study also assesses clinicians' satisfaction with the web-based tool (CLOVER-Web) developed to facilitate the use of the score in clinical practice.
NCT05171075
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)
NCT07288632
Multicenter, prospective observational study (15 Oncologic Centers, in Italy). The purpose of the study is to assess the thromboembolic potential in patients with oncogene-addicted and wild-type NSCLC. The primary aim of this project is to evaluate the association between oncogene mutations and levels of plasma parameters of the activated coagulation cascade as the plasma levels of TF, thrombin generation, IL 6, vWF, ADAMTS-13 activity, PAI-1, and soluble P-selectin in NSCLC patients. A total of 500 NSCLC patients with a diagnosis (cytologically or histologically confirmed) of locally advanced or metastatic disease will be enrolled in the study, with a ratio of 1:1 for oncogene addicted or wild-type group. The oncogene-addicted group (Group A): patients with at least one oncogene mutation (i.e., patients expressing EGFR mutations, KRAS mutation, ALK or ROS1 rearrangements); the wild type group (Group B): patients without oncogene mutations, categorized in 2 subgroups according to expression of PD1/PD-L1 mutation or not. Patients will be followed up prospectively for 6 months or until death, VTE event, loss to follow-up, or voluntary consent withdrawal. This study will evaluate the effects of EGFR, KRAS mutations and ALK/ROS 1 and PD-1/PD-L1 rearrangements on the expression of TF and thrombin generation or the interaction between inflammation and endothelial or platelet and cancer cells, in patients with NSCLC. The study will also evaluate the potential correlation between VTE events and the expression of oncogene mutations in patients with NSCLC. The results of this study could generate the hypothesis of including the genetic profile as variable for a risk-stratification tools and decision-making algorithms in NSCLC patients.
NCT03266783
Apixaban and rivaroxaban have been compared to standard therapy for treatment of acute symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) in randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and are both approved by Health Canada. No safety or efficacy data is available from direct head-to-head comparison of these two anticoagulants. Lawsuits in the United States over bleeding events, patient perceptions, and concerns with medication adherence are additional factors highlighting the importance of a comparison trial. This multi-center, pragmatic, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded end-point (PROBE) trial aims to compare the safety of apixaban and rivaroxaban for the treatment of VTE.
NCT02559856
This vanguard pilot study compares rivaroxaban and apixaban, two of the new oral blood thinners for the treatment of blood clots. Half of the patients will receive apixaban and half will receive rivaroxaban. The main objective is to determine the feasibility of patient recruitment and resources required to follow enrolled patients and inform for a larger, multi-centered trial and to assess which one is safer.
