Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include adults over 18 with solid cancers such as lung, pancreatic, gastric, or glioblastoma that are at high risk for thrombosis and have not yet received systemic treatment.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have experienced a venous thromboembolism in the past year or are currently on anticoagulant therapy may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study aims to investigate thrombin generation and its role in predicting thromboembolic events in patients with solid tumors at high risk for thrombosis. Biological blood samples will be collected monthly for a year following the initiation of systemic treatment to analyze coagulation factors. The study focuses on understanding the hypercoagulable state associated with cancer and how it contributes to venous thromboembolism (VTE), a significant complication in these patients. By identifying patients at risk, the study seeks to improve management and outcomes for cancer patients undergoing treatment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to better prediction and prevention of thromboembolic events in cancer patients, potentially improving survival rates.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success in identifying thromboembolic risks in cancer patients, indicating that this approach is supported by existing research.
