Thrombin Generation and Prediction of Thromboembolic Events in Oncology Patients At Risk
Study Purpose
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.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT06051214 |
|
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
