NCT ID NCT06372730

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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 665 people who had a pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lung) and are at intermediate risk of another clot. Researchers will use a special 3D lung scan (V/Q SPECT/CT) to measure leftover blockages in lung blood vessels. The goal is to see if this scan can predict who will have another clot within two years, which could help doctors decide who needs long-term blood thinners.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors identify which patients need long-term blood thinners to prevent another dangerous clot.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The scan may not reliably predict recurrence, and results may not change current practice.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 665 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients ≥ 18 years, * who experienced an objectively proven PE, * who have been treated initially with anticoagulant therapy for 3 to 6 uninterrupted months (180 - 210 days) and for whom anticoagulation will not be prolonged. Exclusion Criteria: * Unwilling or unable to give written informed consent (protected adults, under tutorship or curatorship) * Patients deprived of their liberty by a judicial or administrative decision, patients undergoing psychiatric care by virtue of Articles L. 3212-1 and L. 3213-1 who are not covered by the provisions of Article L. 1121-8 and patients admitted to a health or social establishment for purposes other than research * No Social security affiliation * Isolated DVT * Pregnant women and parturients * Other indication for anticoagulant therapy (e.g. atrial fibrillation, mechanic valve) * Life expectancy \< 6 months * Any patients for whom there is a strong indication to treat longer than 6 months: * PE provoked by a major persistent factor (e.g. cancer) * Recurrent unprovoked PE PE provoked by a major transient risk factor (e.g. surgery with general anesthesia for greater than 30 min, confined to bed in hospital for at least 3 days with an acute illness, cesarean section) AND none of the following persistent factors : * BMI ≥ 30 * Chronic respiratory disease * Chronic inflammatory disease (e.g., ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.) * Hepatocellular insufficiency * Renal insufficiency with creatinine clearance \< 60 mL/min * Chronic or persistent immobilization
