Summary

This study looks at the best way to treat blood clots in cancer patients who also have low platelet counts, which raises bleeding risk. Researchers will compare two approaches: full-dose blood thinners with platelet transfusions versus a reduced dose without transfusions. The goal is to see if a larger study is possible, not to find a cure. About 50 adults with active cancer and a recent blood clot will take part.
