First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study tests whether taking a blood thinner for 12 weeks can prevent dangerous blood clots in people with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), a rare disease where the immune system destroys red blood cells. About 72 adults with newly diagnosed or relapsed AIHA will be randomly assigned to receive either the blood thinner apixaban or a placebo. The goal is to see if extended prevention reduces the high risk of clots during the first three months after diagnosis or relapse.
