Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates for this study are children aged 2 to 18 years with confirmed giant coronary artery aneurysms due to Kawasaki disease.

Probably not a fit

Patients with active bleeding risks or contraindications to anticoagulant therapy will not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to collect clinical data from children aged 2 years and older who have giant coronary artery aneurysms resulting from Kawasaki disease and are receiving treatment with rivaroxaban. The study will utilize an established Kawasaki disease cohort database to measure rivaroxaban plasma concentrations, anti-factor Xa activity levels, and genetic polymorphisms. The goal is to perform a population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis to better understand the drug's effects in this specific pediatric population.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve the understanding of rivaroxaban dosing and effectiveness in children with Kawasaki disease, potentially leading to better treatment outcomes.

How similar studies have gone: While this approach is focused on a specific population, similar pharmacokinetic studies in other pediatric populations have shown promise, suggesting potential for success.
