About this study
Official title: Comparison of Thromboembolic Events in Patients Undergoing Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery and Thromboprophylactic Treatment With Two Enoxaparin Formulations (ENOXA® vs Lovenox®)

Incidence of symptomatic thromboembolic events
Compare the incidence of symptomatic DVT and pulmonary embolism (PE) between the two study treatment arms
Measured: 30 days postoperative
Number of adverse events
To compare the safety of both the study of products
Measured: 30 days postoperative
Incidence of both Enoxaparin formulations immunogenicity
To compare the levels of platelet factor 4 (PF4)-Heparin complex antibodies an platelet count between the two study treatment arms
Measured: 0 -10 days postoperative

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Enoxaparin 4000 IU in people with Gastrointestinal Neoplasms and Thromboembolic Event, run by Les Laboratoires des Médicaments Stériles at 1 site in Tunisia.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Tunisia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Incidence of asymptomatic Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) (time frame: 7 - 10 days postoperative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02444572, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jul 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
