Trial Identification

Brief Title: Post-thrombotic Syndrome & Predictors of Recurrence in Catheter-related Thrombosis

Official Title: Pilot Study of Post-thrombotic Syndrome & Predictors of Recurrence in Cancer Patients With Catheter-related Thrombosis

Study ID: NCT01999179

Study Description

Brief Summary: The goal of the pilot study is to determine if a multicenter prospective cohort study of cancer patients with blood clots associated with catheters is feasible. Cancer patients with catheter-related thrombosis treated with one month of anticoagulation will be evaluated for for post-thrombotic syndrome. Laboratory biomarkers will be evaluated as predictors of recurrent thrombosis.

Detailed Description: Participants may be referred for screening at Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) in two possible mechanisms: participant contact study staff from information on Clinical Trials Science Institute (CTSI) FACT website or referral from treating Hematologist or Oncologist. At MCW, an EPIC report will be generated to identify people with catheter related thrombosis (CRT). The treating provider would then be contacted to determine if referral to the study was appropriate. Subjects at Ohio State University (OSU) will be referred from the treating Hematologist or Oncologist. A report generated in Epic will be used to identify people with CRT. The treating provider would then be contacted to determine if referral to the study was appropriate. Participants will be given printed information about the study or verbal explanation using the informational flyer. Verbal consent will be obtained to be screened for participation and contacted by study personnel. Screening will be completed by BloodCenter of Wisconsin (BCW) nurse coordinator. We aim to consent and enroll patients after diagnosis of catheter-related thrombosis and prior to catheter removal. Consent and enrollment (Visit 1) must occur prior to discontinuation of anticoagulation. Participants will be treated with either enoxaparin for one month following catheter removal, or direct oral anticoagulant treatment (apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran, or edoxaban). Anticoagulation will be continued for 1 month after catheter removal. The minimum duration of anticoagulation will be one month and maximum duration is 7 months. The cost of enoxaparin will be the responsibility of the participant as use of the medication is part of routine care. Subjects will be contacted by telephone prior to discontinuation of anticoagulation to review study protocol, assess for bleeding, and see if any continuation rules apply and arrange for research visit 2 in the following 1-2 weeks. Visits 3 and 4 will occur 3 and 6 months after catheter removal, respectively. At visits 3 \& 4, Medical history, cancer history, and medications will be updated. At each visit, participants will be assessed for post-thrombotic syndrome using the modified Villalta scale and functional limitation using the DASH questionnaire. At MCW, surveys will be administered by the research coordinator and/or Translational Research Unit (TRU) staff and physical examination will be completed by BCW nurse coordinator. At OSU, surveys will be administered by research coordinators and physical examination will be administered by research nurse coordinator. Laboratory samples will be obtained for MCW participants only.
