Aspirin and Enoxaparin for VTE in Trauma
A Phase 4 study testing Aspirin and Enoxaparin in people with Venous Thromboembolism and Thromboprophylaxis, run by University of Miami at 1 site in United States.

About this study
Official title: The Role Of Combined Therapy With Aspirin and Enoxaparin In Prevention Of Venous Thromboembolism In Trauma Patients: A Randomized-Controlled Trial
The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of antiplatelet therapy (i.e. aspirin) to low-molecular-weight-heparin (i.e. enoxaparin) will decrease the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in high-risk critically injured patients. The investigators further aim to determine the safety and efficacy of dual thromboprophylaxis with aspirin and enoxaparin for decreasing the incidence of VTE after trauma.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
AspirinDrug
Daily dose is 81 mg oral tablet
EnoxaparinDrug
Daily dose is by subcutaneous injection and weight based at the discretion of the treating clinician.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) + Aspirin (ASA) | Experimental | Group will get both enoxaparin (standard of care) and aspirin (intervention) after consent up to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) discharge. Receives: Drug: Aspirin; Drug: Enoxaparin |
| Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) Alone | Active comparator | Group will get only enoxaparin (standard of care) after consent up to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) discharge. Receives: Drug: Enoxaparin |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Incidence of Venous Thromboembolism
Incidence of VTE is defined as new cases reported of: 1. Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), symptomatic or asymptomatic as assessed via venous duplex ultrasonography, and 2. Pulmonary Embolism (PE), symptomatic or asymptomatic as assessed via chest computed tomography with angiography (CTA) or ventilation-perfusion (VQ) Scan
Measured: Up to 2 months of hospitalization
Secondary outcomes (2)
Change in Hypercoagulability
Assessed via the combination of routine laboratory values (Prothrombin Time and Partial Thromboplastin Time) evaluated through weekly thromboelastography (TEG)
Measured: Baseline, up to 2 months hospitalization
Mortality
Mortality will be reported as the number of participants with reported death upon hospital discharge
Measured: Up to 2 months of hospitalization

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Aspirin and Enoxaparin in people with Venous Thromboembolism and Thromboprophylaxis, run by University of Miami at 1 site in United States.
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 7 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 19 Nov 2019. 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 United States. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Nov 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Incidence of Venous Thromboembolism (time frame: Up to 2 months of hospitalization). 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 19 Nov 2019.
