About this study

Official title: Prophylactic vs Therapeutic Anticoagulation in Symptomatic Isolated Distal Deep Vein Thrombosis (IDENT): a Prospective, Multicenter, Single-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial

The efficacy and safety of anticoagulant treatment is not established for patients with acute symptomatic isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT). The latest Antithrombotic Therapy for VTE Disease Guideline suggested using the same anticoagulation as for patients with acute proximal DVT in patients with acute IDDVT. However, a single-center retrospective cohort study found therapeutic anticoagulation was associated with an increase risk of bleeding. Thus, this study aimed to assess the short-term risk of recurrent venous thrombotic events and bleeding events in patients with a first acute symptomatic IDDVT of the leg treated with prophylactic or therapeutic anticoagulant therapy with rivaroxaban.

What is being measured

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

  1. Radiographically confirmed recurrent venous thromboembolism

    Recurrent venous thromboembolism includes proximal extension of isolated distal DVT, new contralateral proximal DVT and pulmonary embolism.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Major or clinically relevant non-major bleeding events

    Major bleeding events are defined according to the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis criteria. Clinically relevant non-major bleeding events refer to which do not meet the mentioned criteria of major bleeding but need at least an unscheduled in-person consultant.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Individual component of primary outcomes (e.g. proximal extension, major bleeding)

    Individual component of primary outcomes, including proximal extension of isolated distal DVT, new contralateral proximal DVT, new pulmonary embolism, major bleeding events, clinically relevant non-major bleeding events.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Residual vein occlusion

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Post-thrombotic syndrome

    Measured: 6 months

  4. All-cause death

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rivaroxaban in people with Venous Thrombosis, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 4 sites 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 4 inclusion and 11 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 16 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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 Weiguo Fu, PhD (17612117633, fu.weiguo@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Radiographically confirmed recurrent venous thromboembolism (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04967573, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Feb 2022.
