Trial summary

Coagulation is a complex system which, through the action of thrombin, leads to the formation of fibrin, which stabilises the platelet clot. Any disturbance in the balance between procoagulant and anticoagulant factors can tip the physiological process either towards a state of hypercoagulability leading to thrombosis… Read more about this study

About this study

Coagulation is a complex system which, through the action of thrombin, leads to the formation of fibrin, which stabilises the platelet clot. Any disturbance in the balance between procoagulant and anticoagulant factors can tip the physiological process either towards a state of hypercoagulability leading to thrombosis or hypocoagulability responsible for bleeding.

Due to a number of factors, cancer is associated with a state of hypercoagulability, leading to thrombosis. The incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in cancer patients varies from 15 to 20% depending on the type of cancer, the stage of the disease and the associated treatments (ONCORIF data, November 2021). The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is greatly increased in cancer patients (RR x 3 to 6) and doubled in the case of associated chemotherapy (1). VTE is a poor prognostic factor, occurs mainly in the first 6 months after diagnosis and is the second leading cause of death in cancer patients.

At present, haemostasis tests performed in medical laboratories independently explore the different coagulation pathways but do not allow the overall haemostatic profile of a hyper- or hypocoagulable patient to be assess.

Based on this knowledge base, the aim of our study will be to monitor thrombogram profiles during the management of patients with tumours at high risk of thromboembolism (lung, pancreas, stomach, glioblastoma) and to correlate these profiles with the risk of a thromboembolic event occurring in these patients. The aim of the project is to validate a simple predictive test (suitable for clinical use) for the risk of thromboembolism in these patients. These analyses will also make it possible to monitor the impact of chemotherapy on changes in the thrombin generation test in patients.

Read the detailed description

Biological blood samples will be taken specifically for research purposes. As far as possible and depending on the patient's schedule, a sample will be taken every month (during a consultation and/or a course of chemotherapy) and for the 12 months following the initiation of systemic treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess whether changes in thrombogram values are predictive of thromboembolic events in patients with solid cancers in the 12 months following initiation of their systemic treatment.

    Venous thromboembolism (VTE)-free survival.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Describe kinetic evolution of thrombogram after different chemotherapies

    Area Under the Curve/ Endogenous Thrombin Potential(ETP) (nM.min)

    Measured: Every 3 months for 12 months

  2. Describe kinetic evolution of thrombogram in metastatic disease

    Analysis of Area Under the Curve/ Endogenous Thrombin Potential(ETP) (nM.min) will be done before and after metastatic progression, or at each progression for patients with immediate metastatic disease.

    Measured: Every 3 months for 12 months

  3. Identify specific patterns of thrombogram evolution over time

    Homogeneous patient trajectories will be identified by evolution of Area Under the Curve/ Endogenous Thrombin Potential(ETP) (nM.min)

    Measured: Every 3 months for 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing thrombogram in people with Solid Carcinoma, run by Institut Cancerologie de l'Ouest 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 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Armelle LEFRANCOIS (+33240679727, armelle.lefrançois@ico.unicancer.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To assess whether changes in thrombogram values are predictive of thromboembolic events in patients with solid cancers in the 12 months following initiation of their systemic treatment. (time frame: 12 months). 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 17 Feb 2026.
