Venous Thrombosis clinical trials at UCSF
2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
Venous thrombosis is a condition when blood clots form in the veins. UCSF is conducting a clinical trial to find out if endovascular therapy is helpful for reducing Post-Thrombotic Syndrome (PTS) symptoms. There is another trial ongoing, but it is not accepting new participants.
Chronic Venous Thrombosis: Relief With Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Therapy (The C-TRACT Trial)
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of image-guided, endovascular therapy (EVT) is an effective strategy with which to reduce Post Thrombotic Syndrome (PTS) disease severity and improve quality of life in patients with established disabling iliac-obstructive post thrombotic syndrome (DIO-PTS).

Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) Versus LMWH +/- Warfarin for VTE in Cancer
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The overarching objective of the study is to determine the effectiveness of LMWH/ warfarin vs. DOAC anticoagulation for preventing recurrent VTE in cancer patients. The intervention strategy is Direct Oral AntiCoagulants (DOAC) therapy with edoxaban, apixaban, rivaroxaban, or dabigatran. The comparator is low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) alone or with warfarin. The information gained will empower cancer patients and physicians to make more informed choices about anticoagulation strategies to manage VTE.
