What this trial studies

This single-center cohort combines retrospective chart review with prospective follow-up of adults meeting the 2006 Sydney criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome at the University Hospital of Rouen. The primary objective is to determine the rate of thrombotic recurrence (arterial and venous) in this population at our center. Secondary objectives include identifying clinical and treatment-related risk factors for recurrence, evaluating long-term treatment safety, and documenting overall morbidity and mortality. Results will be used to refine estimates of recurrence risk and to inform sample-size planning for future therapeutic trials.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults aged 18–75 with antiphospholipid syndrome confirmed by the 2006 Sydney classification are the intended participants.

Not a fit: People under 18, over 75, or without antiphospholipid syndrome by the 2006 Sydney criteria are not eligible and therefore would not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this could provide more accurate recurrence rates and identify risk factors that help guide treatment decisions and the design of future trials.

How similar studies have performed: Previous observational cohorts have reported recurrence rates around 5% per year, but those studies are older and heterogeneous, so findings are only partially consistent and not definitive.
