Active clinical trials for "Venous Thromboembolism"

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Innohep® in preventing the recurrence of VTE in patients with active cancer who have had an acute VTE episode.

This multicentre open-label randomized parallel-group trial aims to evaluate the association intermittent pneumatic compression + elastick stockings versus elasting stockings alone on symptomatic or asymptomatic venous thromboembolism incidence, evaluated systematically at day 6 (+/-2days), in patients hospitalized in intensive care units and with high bleeding risk.

This is a pilot study to evaluate safety of fondaparinux and enoxaparin in terms of bleeding and development of thrombocytopenia in the medical ICU population.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of dalteparin vs unfractionated heparin for the prevention of VTE (Venous Thromboembolism) in hospitalized acutely ill medical patients.

The clinical study will collect data to verify the safety and performance of the Cook Celect Filter in the prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with a temporary or permanent high risk of thromboembolism.

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.

This study plans to learn more about the role of 2 blood tests in predicting who might develop a blood clot in their arm or leg after major surgery. The investigators know that patients who have cancer and major surgery have a higher than normal risk of getting blood clots in the veins of their arms or legs. This can be very dangerous because the clot can move into your lungs.

The purpose of this trial is to determine the comparative safety and efficacy of dabigatran etexilate 150 mg bid administered orally and warfarin as needed (pro re nata - prn) to maintain an International Normalised Ratio (INR) of 2.0-3.0 for 6 month treatment of acute symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE), following initial treatment (5-10 days) with a parenteral anticoagulant approved for this indication. This trial aims to demonstrate non-inferiority of dabigatran compared with warfarin in patients with acute symptomatic VTE. After achieving non-inferiority, this trial also aims to establish superiority (by means of hierarchical tests) of dabigatran over warfarin.

FIDO was a multicentred randomized, open-label trial that compared fixed-dose UFH with fixed-dose LMWH for initial treatment of VTE. Patients were followed for 3 months during which they received warfarin (target INR 2.0-3.0).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the health care resource utilization and costs associated with treating patients diagnosed with cancer and venous thromboembolism with apixaban or low molecular weight heparin. This is a retrospective database analysis of health care claims data. All-cause costs as well as costs associated with recurrent VTE, major bleeding, and clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding will be assessed.
