About this study

Official title: Portal Vein Thrombosis in Cirrhosis: A Cohort Sudy

This study evaluates the supervivence of cirrhotic patients that develop portal vein thrombosis in comparison to cirrhotic patients that do not develop portal vein thrombosis.

Read the detailed description

Patients newly diagnosed with portal vein thrombosis by imaging tests, that evaluate the extent and exclude tumoral origin, will be included (informed consent previously signed).

Anticoagulant treatment will be initiated according to clinical guidelines (if there is no contraindication) first with LMWH (low molecular weight heparin) and later with dicoumarin.

An abdominal CT will be performed to evaluate the extent and exclude tumoral origin; a gastroscopy to evaluate portal hypertension (and do prophylaxis if required) and thrombophilia study.

Patients will be followed by imaging and laboratory tests every 6 months; to evaluate the response to the treatment and detect any cirrhosis complication.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Survival of patients with cirrhosis

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Complications related with anticoagulation treatment

    Number of patients with Complications related with anticoagulation treatment including any haemorragic event

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Prevalence of thrombophilic disorders in patients with Portal Vein Thrombosis

    To know how many patients with Portal Vein Thrombosis have Thrombophilic disorders

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatic Vein Thrombosis and Cirrhosis, run by Corporacion Parc Tauli.

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 6 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Aug 2017. 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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Survival of patients with cirrhosis (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 9 Aug 2017.
