Trial summary

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a vascular disease characterized by the formation of a thrombus within the venous system, mainly the lower limbs. The clot structure directly influences both its location, but also its progressive profile expansion material or regression and embolic migration. Read more about this study

About this study

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a vascular disease characterized by the formation of a thrombus within the venous system, mainly the lower limbs. The clot structure directly influences both its location, but also its progressive profile expansion material or regression and embolic migration.

Few data are available regarding the evolution of structural properties of thrombus after an acute episode of DVT. Thrombus formation is due to the polymerization of fibrinogen into fibrin. Fibrin is a viscoelastic polymer. Its mechanical properties directly determine how the thrombus responds to forces which it is subjected.

Determining the mechanical properties of the thrombus in vivo and ex vivo is expected to study its evolutionary properties.

Read the detailed description

The main objective of the study is to characterize the in vivo properties of elastographic thrombus in patients with proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT), for quantitative elastography performed at D0, D7, D30.

The ability to analyze the structural properties of the thrombus should allow us to then correlate these properties to the evolving nature of the thrombus (embolic migration or not, recanalization or not), and the effect of different treatment on the evolution of the thrombus

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in in vivo elastographic properties of thrombus in patients with proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) through quantitative elastography

    Measured: Day 0, Day 7, Day 30

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Thrombus properties depending on the existence or absence of pulmonary embolism (PE) associated

    Measured: Day 0, Day 7, Day 30

  2. Thrombus properties if provoked versus unprovoked thrombosis

    Measured: Day 0, Day 7, Day 30

  3. Correlation of the thrombus in vivo properties to the thrombin generation capacity and viscoelastic properties tested ex vivo by rotational thromboelastometry

    Measured: Day 0, Day 7, Day 30

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing elastography SWIRE in people with Deep Vein Thrombosis, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jan 2019. 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 France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Gilles PERNOD (00 334 767 657 17, GPernod@chu-grenoble.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in in vivo elastographic properties of thrombus in patients with proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) through quantitative elastography (time frame: Day 0, Day 7, Day 30). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 Jan 2019.
