What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dabigatran etexilateDrug

    Subjects should take Dabigatran etexilate 150mg twice a day for 6 months after randomization.

  • WarfarinDrug

    Subjects should take Warfarin for 6 months after randomization and the dose will be changed according to investigator's judgment.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of recanalized cerebral veins after 6 months

    cerebral venous recanalisation rate after anticoagulation treatment for 6 months.

    Measured: 0-6 months after randomization

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Number of subjects with venous thrombosis events

    Number of subjects with recurrent cerebral venous and dural sinus thrombosis, deep venous thrombosis of any limb, pulmonary embolism or splanchnic vein thrombosis within 6 months.

    Measured: 0-6 months after randomization

  2. The change of optic disc edema grade and lumbar puncture pressure after 6 months

    Measured: 0-6 months after randomization

  3. Number of subjects with major bleeding events

    Number of subjects with major bleeding events according to International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis criteria within 6 months.

    Measured: 0-6 months after randomization

  4. Number of subjects with clinically relevant non-major bleeding events

    Number of subjects with clinically relevant non-major bleeding events according to International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis criteria within 6 months.

    Measured: 0-6 months after randomization

  5. Number of subjects with new intracranial haemorrhage or worsening of the previous intracranial haemorrhage

    Measured: 0-6 months after randomization

  6. Number of subjects with any bleeding events within 6 months

    Measured: 0-6 months after randomization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Dabigatran etexilate and Warfarin in people with Cerebral Venous Thrombosis, run by Capital Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2017. 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 China. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xunming Ji (+86-83198952, jixunming@vip.163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of recanalized cerebral veins after 6 months (time frame: 0-6 months after randomization). 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 22 Nov 2017.
