Amivantamab for advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations
This Phase 2 study tests amivantamab (an antibody medicine) in people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer when standard curative treatments aren’t possible.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05869591RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug to prevent clots in mild to moderate liver disease
This Phase 2 study tests a blood-thinner called a DOAC in people with previously diagnosed mild or moderate liver cirrhosis (Child A or B). It may help doctors understand whether the medicine is safe and effective in this group.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18 years+ - NCT05955365RecruitingPhase 4
Single anticoagulant blood thinner after stent in atrial fibrillation
This trial tests whether taking a single “P2Y12 inhibitor” blood thinner (instead of multiple medicines) is safe and effective after you get a coronary stent. It’s for people with atrial fibrillation who need long-term blood thinning and have recently had a successful stent procedure.
HasseltAges 18 years+ - NCT06241677Recruiting
Clot-busting therapy for stroke patients on blood thinners
This study tests whether giving a clot-busting medicine through an IV can help people who have had a stroke while taking a common blood thinner (apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, or rivaroxaban). It may be an option if your last dose of the blood thinner was 12 to 48 hours before the stroke and you arrive at the hospital within 4.5 hours of symptoms starting.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07005024RecruitingPhase 3
Blood thinner dosing study for people with cancer starting treatment
This trial tests different ways to take the blood thinner apixaban to prevent blood clots in people with cancer who are starting or switching their cancer treatment. It aims to find the best dose for safety and effectiveness.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT07012291Recruiting
Blood test for patients on blood thinners
