Simple blood test may predict deadly clots in cancer patients

NCT ID NCT06051214

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is testing whether a monthly blood test can predict dangerous blood clots in people with certain cancers (lung, pancreatic, stomach, or brain). Cancer patients are at high risk for clots, which can be deadly. Researchers will follow 200 participants for 12 months, taking blood samples each month to measure how their blood clots. The goal is to develop a simple test that could help doctors prevent clots before they happen.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple blood test that helps doctors identify which cancer patients are at highest risk for dangerous blood clots, allowing earlier prevention.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It is still recruiting and results may not lead to a widely used test. The blood test may not reliably predict clots in all patients.
