About this study

Official title: Low Molecular Weight Heparin Vs No Treatment in Pregnant Women With Previous Preeclampsia or Fetal Growth Restriction Who Were Heterozygote for Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin Gene G20210A Mutation

The objective of this trial will be to determine whether prophylactic low-molecular weight heparin therapy in pregnant women with the heterozygous Factor V Leiden and G20210A prothrombin gene mutations thrombophilia and a history of severe preeclampsia and/or severe fetal growth restriction reduces the risk of the composite outcome of preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, or both.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this trial will be to determine whether prophylactic low-molecular weight heparin therapy in pregnant women with the heterozygous Factor V Leiden and G20210A prothrombin gene mutations thrombophilia and a history of severe preeclampsia and/or severe fetal growth restriction reduces the risk of the composite outcome of preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, or both. We also will assess the effect of treatment on other indicators of maternal and neonatal complications, and the growth of fetal body composition in terms of fat and lean body mass.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Preeclampsia, run by University of Florence.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Mar 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Mar 2006.
