Predicting thrombosis risk in lung cancer patients on immune therapy

Development and Application of a Thrombosis Risk Prediction Model in Lung Cancer Patients Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

Beijing Chao Yang Hospital · NCT06950697

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to investigate the incidence and risk factors of venous and arterial thromboembolism (VTE/ATE) in lung cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Researchers will analyze the relationship between these thrombotic events and therapeutic outcomes to understand their impact on patient prognosis. By comparing characteristics and biomarkers of patients with and without ICI-associated VTE/ATE, the study seeks to identify specific biomarkers for thrombotic events. Ultimately, a risk assessment model will be developed to guide prevention and treatment strategies in clinical practice.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with a confirmed diagnosis of lung cancer who have received at least one dose of a China-approved immune checkpoint inhibitor.

Not a fit: Patients who do not have lung cancer or those who have not received immune checkpoint inhibitors may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved risk assessment and management strategies for lung cancer patients undergoing immune therapy, potentially enhancing their treatment outcomes.

How similar studies have performed: While this study explores a specific aspect of thromboembolism in lung cancer patients treated with ICIs, similar studies have shown varying degrees of success in identifying risk factors for thrombotic events in cancer patients.
