Summary

This study follows 260 cancer patients who are on long-term blood thinners for blood clots (VTE). Researchers will ask participants about their quality of life, how well they stick to their medication, and their healthcare costs over 12 months. The goal is to learn what helps or hinders treatment, not to test a new drug.
