Trial summary

In case of acute portal vein thrombosis (PVT) prothrombotic factors are identified in about 60% of cases, while a local condition is present in 30% of cases. Prothrombotic factors may indicate a long term anticoagulant therapy whereas the risk of recurrence seems low when a local condition is isolated (cholecystitis… Read more about this study

About this study

In case of acute portal vein thrombosis (PVT) prothrombotic factors are identified in about 60% of cases, while a local condition is present in 30% of cases. Prothrombotic factors may indicate a long term anticoagulant therapy whereas the risk of recurrence seems low when a local condition is isolated (cholecystitis, angiocholitis, liver abces, diverticulitis, appendicitis, acute/chronic pancreatitis, chronic bowel inflammatory disease, acute hepatitis due to cytomegalovirus, bacteroïdes pylephlebitis, abdominal neoplasia such as adenocarcinoma of the colon, abdominal traumatism or surgery such as cholecystectomy, bariatric surgery or splenectomy). To date the impact of prothrombotic factors associated with local conditions responsible for acute PVT has not been well studied except for acute or chronic pancreatitis. No significant association has been pointed out in this pathology. The aim is to determine what are the risk factors of thrombotic recurrence or extension associated with local conditions responsible for acute non cirrhotic PVT, and to evaluate the rate of secondary long term anticoagulant therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recurrence of thrombosis at 5 years

    Risk factor for recurrence of thrombosis at 5 years (regardless of territory), or splanchnic thrombotic extension, in case of acute non-cirrhotic PVT secondary to a local cause of infection, inflammation, trauma or abdominal surgery.

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Prevalence of thrombotic factors

    Prevalence of thrombotic factors with its 95% confidence interval.

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Prothrombotic factors

    Interest of a systematic search for prothrombotic factors in terms of prevention of recurrence of thrombosis, mortality (morbidity, mortality)

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Long-term anticoagulation

    Percentage of indications for long-term anticoagulation at the end of the exhaustive search for prothrombotic factors: this percentage will be estimated with its IC 95

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Portal Vein Thrombosis and Local Cause, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 26 Mar 2025. 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 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?

Recurrence of thrombosis at 5 years (time frame: 5 years). 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 26 Mar 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
