Trial summary

Malignant tumors are closely related to deep vein thrombosis, Pulmonary embolism and other diseases. Tumor patients usually have a hypercoagulable state (HCS) in their blood, and the proportion of thrombosis caused by HCS is more than 10 times that of non tumor patients. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: According to the commonly used Caprini Thrombosis Risk Score and Khrona Thrombosis Risk Score in clinical practice, patients with Caprini score ≥ 5 and Khrona score ≥ 2 have a VTE incidence rate of 8.8% -14.6%; The expected incidence of VTE in patients with shortened whole blood GCT time is 30%; Based on sample size calculation, Class I error α= 0.025, Class II error β= 0.05, bilateral test, loss of follow-up rate of 10%, calculated sample size of 76 cases. It is predicted that patients with shortened GCT time account for 30% of all tumor patients, and 254 patients need to complete GCT testing. Therefore, the overall sample size required for this study is 254 cases.

About this study

Malignant tumors are closely related to deep vein thrombosis, Pulmonary embolism and other diseases. Tumor patients usually have a hypercoagulable state (HCS) in their blood, and the proportion of thrombosis caused by HCS is more than 10 times that of non tumor patients. Conventional clinical testing methods such as coagulation function, blood routine, and thromboelastography are difficult to directly evaluate the hypercoagulable state of tumor patients. In addition, the widely used Khorana score and Caprini score systems in clinical practice need to be improved in accurately reflecting the hypercoagulable state of tumor patients.

Our team has established a complete new coagulation time measurement system, including general clotting time (GCT), platelet rich plasma clotting time (PRP-CT), and platelet poor plasma clotting time (PPP-CT), which may be a new and accurate method for evaluating tumor hypercoagulability.

The GCT study aims to evaluate: 1. The time of GCT, PRP-CT, and PPP-CT for malignant tumors is shorter than that of normal individuals, and some patients are in a hypercoagulable state; 2. The shortened time of GCT, PRP-CT, and PPP-CT may be associated with future thrombosis; 3. Evaluating the relationship between shortened GCT system time and overall tumor survival

Therefore, the GCT system evaluation may identify patients who are truly in a hypercoagulable state, providing monitoring indicators for subsequent anticoagulation; It can also be evaluated whether GCT time can reflect the prognosis of tumor patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neoplasm Metastasis and Blood Coagulation Disorder With Shortened Coagulation Time (Disorder), run by Tianjin Medical University General Hospital 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 6 inclusion and 5 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 11 Jul 2023. 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.

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 donglai Jin, Doctor (862260363203, zyyjgb_ll@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Compared with non tumor patients, the GCT time of tumor patients is significantly GCT shortened in neoplames (time frame: July 1,2023 to September 30,2024). 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?
