Blood thinner study aims to protect cancer patients from dangerous clots

NCT ID NCT06474182

Summary

This study compares how well a common blood thinner (apixaban) prevents blood clots in two groups: patients newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma (a blood cancer) and patients undergoing total knee replacement surgery. Researchers want to understand if the medication works differently in the blood of cancer patients compared to surgical patients, even when given the same preventive dose. The findings could help doctors better manage clot prevention for people with multiple myeloma.
