About this study

To describe the prescribing patterns at Methodist Dallas Medical Center (MDMC) for the treatment of newly diagnosed mural thrombus and to determine the efficacy and safety of DOACs apixaban, dabigatran, and rivaroxaban in comparison to warfarin.

With limited treatment guideline consensus, minimal evidence to support the use of DOACs for Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) thrombus and Left Ventricular Thrombus (LVT), and a lack of evidence for the use of DOACs in aortic thrombus, further research is warranted to determine the role of DOACs in the treatment of various mural thrombi in comparison to warfarin.

Read the detailed description

Retrospective chart review of MDMC patients from 4/1/2017 to 8/31/19 with newly diagnosed mural thrombus.

3.1. Study Methods

  • Patients will be allocated into two groups: those who were prescribed DOACs upon discharge and those who were prescribed warfarin upon discharge
  • Subgroup analyses will occur to evaluate the difference in efficacy and safety endpoints for patients into four categories including: those predisposed to mural thrombus by baseline risk factors (AFIB vs. ACS), location of the mural thrombus (atrial, ventricular, aortic), DOAC by agent (apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran), and DOAC by scheduled dosing indication (AFIB vs. VTE).

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy of the direct oral anti-coagulants

    Readmission for recurrent stroke or thromboembolic event within 90 days of initial hospital discharge

    Measured: from 4/1/2017 to 8/31/19

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Methodist Health System at 1 site in United States.

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 2 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 13 Dec 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 United States. 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?

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?

Efficacy of the direct oral anti-coagulants (time frame: from 4/1/2017 to 8/31/19). 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 13 Dec 2021.
