Active clinical trials for "Thrombosis"

Design: U.S.-based, single-center, randomized placebo-controlled trial. Brief Treatment Description: Low-intensity apixaban (2.5mg twice daily) for extended-duration secondary prevention of VTE after initial treatment for provoked VTE. Purpose: To establish the safety and efficacy of low-intensity apixaban versus placebo for extended prevention of recurrence after provoked VTE in patients with at least one persistent provoking factor. Population: Outpatients with provoked VTE with at least one persistent provoking factor. Enrollment: 600 subjects Randomization: 1:1 Clinical Site Locations: 1 center (Brigham and Women's Hospital) Study Duration: 36 months; enrollment period of up to 20 months with 12-month follow-up. Primary Safety and Efficacy Outcomes: Primary Safety Outcome: International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) major bleeding at 12 months. Primary Efficacy Outcome: Symptomatic, recurrent VTE, defined as the composite of deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism at 12 months. Secondary Efficacy Outcome: The composite of death due to cardiovascular cause, nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke or systemic embolism, critical limb ischemia, or coronary or peripheral ischemia requiring revascularization (major adverse cardiovascular events, including major adverse limb events) at 12 months. Follow-Up: Follow-up will consist of Electronic Health Record (EHR) review at 12-months from study enrollment. Interim Analysis: An interim analysis for the primary safety and efficacy outcomes will be performed when 300 subjects have completed 12-month follow-up.

The investigators will be comparing the effects of two different drug treatment strategies, in patients with history of a heart attack, on different markers of bleeding and clotting risk. Both treatment strategies are already approved for the indication of improving outcomes in high-risk patients with history of heart attack.

A multicentre, parallel group, randomized controlled Phase II clinical trial evaluating neoadjuvant Atezolizumab/Bevacizumab versus neoadjuvant SBRT in patients with biopsy proven solitary HCC with PVTT involving the portal vein branches. Both arms are considered experimental, and as such, a Simon two-stage design will be initially used within both arms. Only if both arms are deemed of interest for further study will a comparison between arms, using a pick-the-winner design, be conducted. Following the completion of neoadjuvant therapy, study participants will undergo a CT scan or MRI to assess tumour response to neoadjuvant therapy. Hepatic resection will be performed for those participants who meet the surgical resection criteria.

To explore the safety and feasibility of intra-arterial neuroprotective strategy in acute ischemic stroke patients who received recanalization operation.

The left ventricular (LV) thrombus is an important complication of myocardial infarction (MI) and vitamin K antagonist (VKA) is the current recommended management therapy for these patients. However, lack of regular international normalized ratio (INR) monitoring, drug, and food interaction may leads to increased risk of over or under anticoagulation consequently compromising the effectiveness of the therapy. Hence, due to benefits like predictable dosing and lack of need for regular monitoring, use of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) for these patients is increasing among cardiologists. However, clinical data for the justified use of NOACs in LV thrombus (LVT) are lacking and remained a point of debate among the cardiologists. A recently published Randomized Control Trial (RCT) by Abdelnabi M et al. namely the No-LVT trial, had established the safety of Rivaroxaban therapy in patient with post myocardial infarction (MI) LV thrombus along with promising efficacy. However, sample size of the study (n=79; 39 in Rivaroxaban and 40 Warfarin) was not sufficiently high enough to conclude efficacy of Rivaroxaban in these patients. Therefore, this open label RCT is designed with the primary objective to evaluate the efficacy of Rivaroxaban in resolution of post MI LV thrombus as compared to standard warfarin therapy at the interval of 1 month and 3 months to test the hypothesis that Rivaroxaban is safe and non-inferior in preventing thromboembolic and major bleeding events in these patients.

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)

Objective: To study the efficacy and safety of apixaban as stroke prophylaxis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 and atrial fibrillation (AF) with or without dialysis treatment. The study hypothesis is that compared to no anticoagulation, apixaban reduces the incidence of ischemic stroke without causing an unacceptable increase in fatal or intracranial bleeding events. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events, and major bleeding in people with CKD stage 5 and AF treated with apixaban compared to standard of care without anticoagulation. Trial design: Pragmatic Prospective Open Label Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial, phase 3b over 12-72 months. Trial population: 1000-1400 patients at ≈50 sites in Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland and Poland Eligibility criteria: Adults ≥18 years with CKD stage 5 (ongoing treatment with any chronic dialysis treatment OR an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)* <20 ml/min/1.73 m2 at least twice 3 months apart of which at least one occasion is <15 ml/min/1.73 m2 due to CKD during the last 12 months) and a diagnosis of chronic, paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent AF or atrial flutter (AFL) with CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥2 for men or ≥3 or more for women as an indication for oral anticoagulation. The exclusion criteria are AF or AFL due to reversible causes, rheumatic mitral stenosis or moderate-to-severe non-rheumatic mitral stenosis at the time of inclusion into the study, a condition other than AF or AFL that requires chronic anticoagulation, contraindications for anticoagulation, active bleeding or serious bleeding within 3 months, planned for surgery within 3 months, and current use of strong inhibitors of both CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein. Interventions: Randomization 1:1 to treatment with apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily and standard of care, or standard of care and no anticoagulation. Outcome measures: primary efficacy (time to first ischemic stroke); primary safety (the composite of time to first intracranial bleeding or fatal bleeding); secondary efficacy (time to all-cause mortality, time to cardiovascular event or cardiovascular death); secondary safety (time to first major bleeding according to International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) criteria)

A multi-center, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint assessment (PROBE) clinical trial of endovascular treatment among selected AIS.

This study is investigator initiated, single-institution, prospective, phase 2 open-label study to determine the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of atezolizumab/bevacizumab and proton beam therapy to portal vein tumor thrombosis with or without main primary tumor in patients with stage 3 or higher hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Vp2-4 portal vein invasion who had not undergone systemic therapy for HCC. The primary endpoint of this study is progression-free survival and secondary endpoints are overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), objective response rate, disease control rate (DCR), and time to local disease progression (LTP).

Chronic obstruction of the iliac veins or inferior vena cava can occur as a result of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or due to extrinsic compression in non-thrombotic iliac vein lesions (NIVLs). This obstruction can manifest as post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) after DVT or as chronic venous disease (CVD) in NIVL. Despite sparse evidence, rates of venous stenting for PTS and NIVLs are increasing. A pragmatic, observer-blind, multi-centre, randomised-controlled trial for adults with CVD secondary to either PTS or NIVLs randomised to either best endovenous therapy (including venoplasty and deep venous stenting) or standard therapy (compression +/- anticoagulation). Included participants will have chronic venous disease (CEAP classification 3 - 6) secondary to proximal deep venous disease. The primary outcome is severity of venous disease at 6 months as ascertained by the Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS).
