About this study

Official title: Cancer Associated Thrombosis: What is the Proportion of Patients Ineligible to a Study as CARAVAGGIO (a Retrospective Multicenter Study)

Venous thromboembolism is a common and fatal disease closely related to cancer. The therapeutic challenge is major due to the high risk of recurrent thromboembolism and bleeding in patients with cancer.

Guidelines recommend the use of low molecular-weight heparin for the treatment of Cancer-Associated venous Thromboembolism (CAT) at least for 3 to 6 months of treatment.

However, recent advances through the results of several therapeutic trials such as CARAVAGGIO (NCT03045406) open the door to the use of Direct Oral AntiCoagulants (DOACs) as first-line therapy.

Nevertheless, extrapolation of its results may be limited owing to a large number of inclusion and exclusion criteria, which may have selected a reduced population.

The proportion of patients admitted with acute CAT who may not eligible to a trial as CARAVAGGIO is unknown.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study si to assess this proportion in a retrospective multicenter study, of patients admitted for acute Cancer-Associated venous Thromboembolism (CAT).

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of cancer patients with a venous thromboembolic event (VTE) ineligible for CARAVAGGIO study

    Patient having at least one of the following exclusion criteria (from CARAVAGGIO study) :

    • ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group ) Performance Status III or IV;
    • life expectancy of less than 6 months;
    • thrombectomy, vena cava filter insertion, or thrombolysis used to manage the index episode;
    • indication for anticoagulant treatment for a disease other than the index VTE episode;
    • thienopyridine therapy (clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor) or aspirin over 165 mg daily or dual antiplatelet therapy;
    • recent brain, spinal or ophthalmic surgery
    • hemoglobin level lower than 8 g/dL or platelet count <75x10^9/L or history of heparin induced thrombocytopenia;
    • creatinine clearance < 30 ml /min
    • acute hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, liver cirrhosis;
    • uncontrolled hypertension;
    • concomitant use of strong inhibitors or inducers of cytochrome;
    • bacterial endocarditis;

    Measured: Up to 6 months after venous thromboembolic event

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Venous Thromboembolism and Cancer, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne at 3 sites in France.

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 6 inclusion and 1 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 11 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France. 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?

Proportion of cancer patients with a venous thromboembolic event (VTE) ineligible for CARAVAGGIO study (time frame: Up to 6 months after venous thromboembolic event). 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 11 Oct 2023.
