Active clinical trials for "Venous Thromboembolism"

The aim of the study is to investigate the existence of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) in patients with a history of venous thromboembolism. The study investigators make the assumption that these patients present mutations involved in CHIP occurrence.

This study is a retrospective, observational, nationwide population-based cohort study utilizing the South Korea's Health Insurance and Review Assessment Service (HIRA) database. The aims of this study are to describe the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of patients with venous thromboembolism according to their anticoagulant treatment (parenteral anticoagulants, warfarin, or non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants), to describe the treatment patterns related to anticoagulants, and to examine the risk of major bleeding according to the specific type of oral anticoagulants. The study will be conducted in two phases: Phase I for descriptive study and Phase II for comparative study.

This is an observational study in which data from the past is collected for a treatment which is already available for doctors to prescribe for venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a condition in which blood clots form in veins, which can lead to disability and death. This study looks at the bleeding risk in Japanese patients who are already receiving long-term rivaroxaban treatment for their VTE. Some common causes of VTE are surgery, lack of movement, being bed-ridden and cancer. VTE that is caused by cancer is called cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (Ca-VTE). The study treatment, rivaroxaban, is a blood thinner prescribed by doctors to help treat conditions like VTE. By thinning the blood, rivaroxaban can help keep blood flowing normally and prevent blood clots. But, rivaroxaban can lead to increased bleeding in some people. There have been studies done in which participants with VTE and Ca-VTE received treatment with rivaroxaban for a long period of time. The overall results of those studies showed that long-term treatment with rivaroxaban helped prevent blood clots in those participants. Some of the participants had increased bleeding after this long-term treatment, while some did not. Participants with certain types of cancers, such as Ca-VTE, also had an increased risk of bleeding. These studies, however, did not include Japanese participants. So, the researchers in this study want to learn more about the risk of bleeding in Japanese patients with VTE or Ca-VTE who receive long-term treatment with rivaroxaban. To do this, the researchers plan to use a medical database to find information for patients with VTE and Ca-VTE who have already been taking rivaroxaban for their condition. This database will help the researchers collect information about the bleeding risk of long-term rivaroxaban treatment in Japanese patients. In this study, the researchers will learn more about: the characteristics of patients with VTE who are treated with rivaroxaban for a period of less than 3 months to more than 1 year the bleeding risk for all of the patients throughout the study the bleeding risk for the patients with Ca-VTE throughout the study the cause of any bleeding that happens The researchers will follow and record these results for Japanese patients from October 2015 to December 2020.

Postoperative Venous Thromboembolism Events (VTE) constitute a major source of morbidity and mortality after surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate whether commonly occurring Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with VTE in the surgical setting.

This study aims to investigate the incidence of venous thromboembolism in people who are diagnosed with atopic dermatitis.

The purpose of this study is to assess outpatient treatment patterns following hospitalization for venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a condition that occurs when blood clot forms in the vein. This is a retrospective study (assessments on events that have already occurred) of healthcare claims from databases. The study sponsors will assess healthcare claim records of patients treated with either apixaban or warfarin. Assessment includes treatment persistence, switch, and stopping therapy, along with recurrent VTE and bleeding.

Central vascular access devices are required for home parenteral nutrition (HPN). There is few data available concerning their complications in adult HPN patients, and the potential link between venous thromboembolism and catheter infection is not well established. The aim of this prospective cohort study is to compare the incidence rate of catheter related complications among 3 types of central vascular access: peripherally inserted central catheters; tunneled catheters and port-a-cath devices, in adults patients on HPN; describe the risk factors, and identify a potential link between venous thromboembolism and infection. More than 300 patients will be consecutively enrolled and followed up from the time of catheter insertion until its removal. Venous complication (identify by an ultrasound examination if deep vein thrombosis is suspected), infection related to catheter and mechanical complications will be analyzed. The incidence of complications will be expressed per 1000 catheters-day and or as a percentage of total catheter.

Little is known about the current management status of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Southwestern China. We aimed to investigate the status of anticoagulant administration in VTE in Southwestern China and assess the potential predictors of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) complicated pulmonary embolism (PE). We extracted data from YiduCloud database from December 2006 to November 2018 and performed a cross-sectional survey of VTE. The demographics, laboratory tests, and anticoagulants were collected and analyzed in the logistic regression model, classification tree and Random Forest model.

Among patients with a first episode of unprovoked venous thromboembolism (VTE), the contemporary one-year risk of detecting occult cancer is approximately 4% to 7%. Of these cases, 30% to 60% are missed by routine limited screening for cancer. RNA profiling of platelets is a promising, highly accurate biomarker for cancer detection, but its clinical utility in patients with unprovoked VTE is unknown. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of platelet RNA profiling in detecting occult cancer in patients with unprovoked venous thromboembolism. Secondary objectives include evaluation of other biomarkers for cancer, prediction of bleeding, and prediction of recurrent VTE.

Lybrel® is an oral contraceptive that delivers low doses of levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol (90 μg/20 μg). Lybrel is taken on a continuous basis without a placebo or pill-free interval to inhibit menstrual cycle bleeding by delivering a steady level of the 2 hormones for as long as the drug is used. Lybrel was marketed in the US in July of 2007. The objective of this database case-control study is to estimate the risk of idiopathic VTE (deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) in current users of Lybrel (ethinyl estradiol 20ug/levonorgestrel 90ug) compared to current users of other oral contraceptives containing 20μg of ethinyl estradiol.
