About this study

Official title: Prospective Study to Generate Hypotheses About the Role of Platelets and Immature Platelets in the Pathogenesis of Idiopathic Venous Thromboses and Pulmonary Embolisms

Study groups in NCT02361294
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PatientPatients with a newly diagnosed deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism. The thrombembolism is idiopathic or caused by immobilisation. Three blood samples are taken during the study period. A thrombophilia screening is carried out.
Receives: Other: Blood samples
ControlPatients that present with a suspicion of deep venous thrombosis which is excluded by duplex sonography. One to two blood samples are taken during the study period.
Receives: Other: Blood samples

What is being measured

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

  1. Significantly increased proportion of immature platelets in patients with deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism compared to the control.

    Measured: at time of diagnosis

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Significantly higher values of platelet function in patients with deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism compared to the control.

    Measured: at time of diagnosis

  2. A persistently increased proportion of immature platelets in patients with deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism compared to the controls three months after diagnosis.

    Measured: 3 months after diagnosis

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Immature Platelets and Deep Venous Thrombosis, run by Technical University of Munich at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 inclusion and 22 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Significantly increased proportion of immature platelets in patients with deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism compared to the control. (time frame: at time of diagnosis). 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 13 Aug 2018.
