Pill vs. shot: new hope for preventing deadly clots in cancer patients

NCT ID NCT07270263

Summary

This study is testing if blood thinner pills (apixaban or rivaroxaban) are as safe and effective as standard daily shots (low-molecular-weight heparin) at preventing dangerous blood clots in people being treated for blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma. About 100 participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of the three treatments and followed for 6 months. The goal is to find a more convenient and patient-friendly way to prevent clots, which are a serious risk during cancer therapy.
