NCT ID NCT07005024

First seen Feb 05, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This study tests whether a blood thinner called apixaban can safely prevent dangerous blood clots in cancer patients at moderate risk. About 996 adults with solid tumors or lymphoma will be randomly assigned to take a standard twice-daily dose, a simpler once-daily dose, or no blood thinner. Researchers will track who develops clots, has serious bleeding, or dies over 6 months to find the best approach.
