NCT ID NCT07372170

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at two types of blood thinners—direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs)—to see which works better at preventing repeat blood clots in people with a low-risk form of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). APS is an autoimmune condition that raises the risk of dangerous clots. Researchers will follow 600 adults already taking one of these medications in routine care, tracking clot recurrences and bleeding events. The goal is to provide real-world evidence on whether newer DOACs are a safe option for these patients.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could clarify whether DOACs are a safe and effective alternative to standard blood thinners for preventing repeat clots in low-risk antiphospholipid syndrome patients.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be influenced by patient selection or other factors. It cannot prove cause and effect, and findings may not apply to higher-risk patients.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

This study includes adult patients with low-risk thrombotic antiphospholipid syndrome managed in routine clinical practice at Internal Medicine units in Spain. Eligible patients have a history of venous thrombotic events and a low-risk antiphospholipid antibody profile and are treated with either direct oral anticoagulants or vitamin K antagonists at the discretion of the treating physician. The study combines retrospective and prospective data collection and does not involve any intervention beyond standard clinical care.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults (≥18 years) with a diagnosis of thrombotic antiphospholipid syndrome. * Low-risk antiphospholipid syndrome defined by previous venous thrombosis and a single or double positive antiphospholipid antibody profile (lupus anticoagulant, anticardiolipin antibodies, and/or anti-beta-2-glycoprotein I antibodies). * Patients receiving long-term anticoagulant treatment with direct oral anticoagulants or vitamin K antagonists according to routine clinical practice. * At least 2 weeks of continuous anticoagulant treatment before study inclusion. Exclusion Criteria: * Age \<18 years. * Triple antiphospholipid antibody positivity. * History of arterial thrombosis. * Anticoagulation for indications other than secondary prevention of venous thrombosis related to antiphospholipid syndrome.
