Summary

This study tests whether adding blood thinners (anticoagulants) to standard steroid treatment is better than steroids alone for deep vein clots in people with Behçet's syndrome. About 134 adults with a first or repeat clot will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. The goal is to see which approach prevents new clots and major bleeding more effectively over 6 months.
