Active clinical trials for "Thrombosis"

Compression ultrasound is commonly used in emergency department. Accuracy to rule out deep vein thrombosis is excellent but lower then Ddimer assessment which is actually gold standard. With progress in formation of emergency physicians (EP), quality of material used, the investigators hypothesize that compression ultrasound can rule out deep vein thrombosis in case of non high probability, as standard care and DDimer assay.

This pilot trial studies how well single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) with technetium Tc-99m sulfur colloid works in measuring liver function in patients with liver cancer that has or has not spread to other place in the body who are undergoing radiation therapy or surgery. Diagnostic procedures, such as sulfur colloid SPECT/CT scans, may measure normal liver tissue before, during and after treatment and help doctors plan better treatment for liver cancer patients.

The objective of the study is to compare short-term (8 weeks) anticoagulation therapy (DOAC) vs. antiplatelet therapy for the prevention of device thrombosis following transcatheter LAAC.

The risk of developing a blood clot occurs in up to 60% of all critical care patients. Many times enoxaparin (or Lovenox) is given to patients who are at a higher risk of developing clots in their legs or lungs. There are two standard doses of enoxaparin that are recommended by the drug companies. These two doses have never been directly compared in trauma, general, and vascular surgery patients. The purposes of this study are: to compare the development of blood clots in patients receiving 30mg twice daily of enoxaparin compared to patients receiving 40mg once daily of enoxaparin. to determine if there is higher risk of bleeding complications in patients receiving 30mg twice daily of enoxaparin compared to patients receiving 40mg once daily. Patients enrolled into the study will be randomized to receive enoxaparin, 30mg twice daily or enoxaparin, 40mg once daily. Patients will then be monitored for signs and symptoms of blood clots. At the time of discharge (or before, if medically indicated), an ultrasound test will be performed to look for blood clots in the patient's legs. The investigators will compare incidence of blood clots formed between the 2 groups of patients to determine if one dose of enoxaparin relates to a lower rate of blood clots in critically ill patients. The investigators will also compare the incidence of bleeding complications between the 2 groups.

APERITIF is a prospective randomized open-label, blinded end-point (PROBE) trial, nested in the ongoing the "FRENCHIE" registry, a French multicenter prospective observational study granted by "ANR-RHU Grand Emprunt", in which all consecutive patients admitted within 48 hours after symptom onset in a cardiac Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are included (NCT04050956). Among them, eligible Patients for "APERITIF" will be randomized into two groups: Dual Anti-Platelet Therapy (DAPT) alone or DAPT plus rivaroxaban 2.5mg twice daily for 4 weeks, prescribed as soon as possible after admission and completion of the initial percutaneous coronary intervention/angiography procedure.

This study aims to compare two different external calf compression devices applied in healthy individuals. These devices are commonly used in medical care in order to prevent the formation of blood clots, for example during immobilization after surgery. We aim to confirm the effects of external cyclic compression on healing and blood clotting and also to identify the one which is more effective.

To compare the impact on recurrence risk of adjuvant Sintilimab (a recombinant fully human anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody) plus Lenvatinib for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT ) after hepatectomy.

This study will conduct a prospective single blind controlled study on the clinical efficacy and safety indicators of 50 cancer patients with acute lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The patients were randomly divided into an experimental group (improved mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) group) and a control group (traditional simple anticoagulation group) using the "envelope method", with 25 cases each. After the end of treatment, clinical prognosis evaluations were conducted on the patient's vital signs, symptoms and signs, lower limb Doppler ultrasound examination, patient PTS score (Villalta score), quality of life score (QOL), etc. at 3, 6, and 12 months. Adverse events, the presence or absence of thrombus recurrence, and re surgical intervention were recorded. This study is expected to propose a new strategy for the treatment of acute DVT in cancer patients, thereby improving the overall level of VTE prevention and treatment.

A functioning dialysis vascular access is critical to the delivery of lifesaving hemodialysis. Arteriovenous graft (AVG) is a surgically created vascular access used for hemodialysis in patients with end-stage renal disease. AVG thrombosis due to underlying flow-limiting stenosis of the graft vein junction and outflow veins is a common complication. Thrombosed AVG can be treated with thrombolysis combined with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with good immediate success rates. However, the mid-to-long term patency rates following angioplasty have been suboptimal. Sirolimus drug-coated balloon has been shown to be safe and effective in the salvage of thrombosed arteriovenous graft. The investigators hypothesize that sirolimus drug-coated balloon is non-inferior to stent graft in maintaining the patency of thrombosed AVG that is successfully salvaged. This study is conducted to compare the 6-month access circuit primary patency of thrombosed AVG treated with sirolimus drug-coated balloon versus stent graft.

Recombinant staphylokinase (r-SAK) is a third-generation thrombolytic agent produced by genetic engineering technology in 1985, which has better thrombolytic effect than streptokinase (SK) and urokinase (UK). It has similar biological properties to natural SAK, is highly selective to fibrin, does not activate systemic fibrinolysis, and can dissolve clots in a short period of time without significantly increasing the risk of bleeding, especially for platelet-rich arterial clots. Previous studies have shown that the thrombolytic revascularization rate of r-SAK is significantly better than that of r-SK and UK at the same dose in the rabbit model of acute femoral artery occlusive thrombosis. The revascularization rate of coronary artery at 90 minutes after thrombolysis was significantly higher with r-SAK than r-tPA. The combination of thrombolytic drugs and nanocarriers may provide a new solution for the existing thrombolytic therapy. Inspired by the natural affinity of platelets (PLT) in hemostasis and pathological thrombosis, we have developed a thrombus targeting nanocarrier, which is a platelet membrane cloaked r-SAK（PLT-SAK）and compare the thrombolytic effect of PLT-SAK with different doses of free r-SAK on human arterial thrombus, aiming to further improve the thrombolytic effectiveness of r-SAK.
