Active clinical trials for "Venous Thromboembolism"

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.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of adjunctive Pharmacomechanical Catheter Directed Thrombolysis, which includes the intrathrombus administration of rt-PA--Activase (Alteplase),can prevent the post-thrombotic syndrome(PTS)in patients with symptomatic proximal deep vein thrombosis(DVT)as compared with optimal standard DVT therapy alone.

This multicentre open-label randomized parallel-group trial aims to compare the association of intermittent pneumatic compression of the lower limbs + elastic stockings + anticoagulant prophylaxis to anticoagulant prophylaxis alone on the incidence of venous thromboembolism systematically evaluated at day 6, in patients hospitalized in intensive care units and without high bleeding risk.

The general aim of this study is to determine the comparative safety and efficacy of dabigatran etexilate 150 mg bid administered orally and warfarin Pro re nata (As needed/PRN) to maintain an International Normalised Ratio (INR) of 2.0-3.0 for 6 month treatment of acute symptomatic VTE. The primary objective is to investigate the efficacy of dabigatran compared to warfarin during the 6 month treatment period. The investigation of other selected efficacy aspects and safety are regarded as secondary objective of this trial.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether low-molecular-weight heparin could be equally or more effective than oral anticoagulation in the long-term treatment of deep venous thrombosis.

There is a direct association between cancer and thrombosis (blood clots). The purpose of this study is to determine the best dose of an antithrombotic (prevents blood clots) agent called fondaparinux in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Patients will also receive chemotherapy.

The PREVENTER Trial aims to compare the use of perioperative pharmacologic prophylaxis (subcutaneous heparin) with intermittent pneumatic compression devices (IPCs) to the use of IPCs alone for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after radical prostatectomy (RP).

REMMITE, a retrospective and prospective registry with one-year follow-up, will provide valuable insights into the clinical diagnosis, management, treatment trends as well as related outcomes of three cohorts: DVT, DVT-PE, PE patients throughout many regions of Mexico and through different health care systems.

Thromboprophylaxis options are limited for patients with acute spinal cord injury (SCI) and there are no studies on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for thromboprophylaxis in this population. Participants will be randomized to apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily or standard dose low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), either enoxaparin 40 mg or dalteparin 5000 units, subcutaneously once daily for 90 days or until fully mobilized, whatever comes first. Thromboprophylaxis will be started as soon as hemostasis is achieved. The primary outcome for this pilot study will be the recruitment rate per year (i.e. the screened to enrolled ratio). The primary efficacy endpoint will be a composite of symptomatic, objectively verified, venous thromboembolism (VTE), defined as upper or lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and/or pulmonary embolism (PE) or sudden death where PE cannot be excluded. The primary safety endpoint will be major bleeding.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether rivaroxaban is safe to use in children and how long it stays in the body. Safety will be assessed by looking at the incidence and types of bleeding events. There will also be a check for worsening of blood clots.
