Official title: Interest of Sublingual Videomicroscopy for the Prediction of Bleeding in Von Willebrand Disease and Other Constitutional Haemorrhagic Diseases
Run by University Hospital, Lille · NCT04119908 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing if a new way to look at tiny blood vessels under the tongue can help predict bleeding risks in adults with von Willebrand disease and Glanzmann thrombasthenia.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults with significant von Willebrand disease, Glanzmann thrombasthenia, moderate to severe hemophilia A, or women carrying the hemophilia gene.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are minors, pregnant, or unable to provide consent 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 study aims to evaluate the use of sublingual videomicroscopy to analyze capillary density as a non-invasive method for predicting bleeding risk in patients with von Willebrand disease and Glanzmann thrombasthenia. By assessing the sublingual capillary bed, researchers hope to identify patients at higher risk of bleeding due to angiodysplasias. The study involves adult patients with significant forms of these conditions and includes blood sample collection for further analysis.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could lead to better risk assessment and management strategies for patients with bleeding disorders.
How similar studies have gone: While the use of videomicroscopy in this context is innovative, similar approaches in assessing bleeding risk have shown promise in other studies.
