6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
To prevent portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in patients with cirrhosis at risk for PVT by pharmacologic prophylaxis with intravenous antithrombin (AT-III).
Therasphere will be administered via catheter through the Hepatic Artery to treat patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Portal vein Thrombosis.
This randomized phase III trial studies the side effects of and compares apixaban and dalteparin in reducing blood clots in patients with cancer-related venous thromboembolism. Venous thromboembolism is a condition in which a blood clot forms in a vein and then breaks off and moves through the bloodstream. Patients with cancer are at increased risk for venous thromboembolism. Apixaban and dalteparin are drugs used to prevent blood clots from forming or to treat blood clots that have formed. It is not yet known whether apixaban or dalteparin is more effective in reducing blood clots in patients with cancer related venous thromboembolism. ADAM-VTE
The primary purpose of this project is to determine if acute monitoring of shunt patency via ultrasound elastography measurements of splenic stiffness before and after TIPS placement results in reduced morbidity and mortality from shunt failure.
This is a two-arm, open-label, prospective, multi-center, randomized, active-controlled clinical trial to assess efficacy and safety of TheraSphere in comparison to standard of care therapy (sorafenib) in the treatment of participants with inoperable liver cancer and blockage of the portal vein.
'The TOP Study' is a prospective cohort study whose main objective is to develop better prognostic biomarkers and identify children at risk of adverse thrombotic outcomes very early in the course after an initial venous thromboembolic events (VTE). The study will compare biomarkers in children that develop poor VTE outcomes (such as recurrence, postthrombotic syndrome and post PE impairment ) after an initial VTE with those that do not develop such outcomes.
