Aspirin to prevent painful blood clots in children with vein malformations
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding aspirin to standard care can reduce the number of painful blood clots in children with a specific vein condition. It may help lower the frequency of these episodes and improve quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Be between 6 and 17 years old
- Weigh at least 20 kg (about 44 pounds)

- If you are a female who could become pregnant, you must use reliable birth control
- Not have other serious medical conditions (like kidney, liver, or heart problems) or take certain blood-thinning medicines

This trial tests an oral blood thinner (a type of drug called a direct oral anticoagulant) to see if it can reduce pain and improve quality of life in people with painful venous malformations. The drug may help by preventing abnormal blood clotting inside the malformation.
This trial compares apixaban or rivaroxaban (blood thinners) against aspirin to prevent future clot-related complications in people with certain bone marrow diseases (PV, ET, or pre-PMF) that have a specific JAK2 mutation. It may help lower the risk of clots, but it also carefully considers bleeding risk.
This trial compares aspirin versus a low-dose injectable blood thinner (LMWH) to prevent blood clots after certain orthopedic cancer surgeries. It may help lower the risk of dangerous clotting while balancing bleeding and side effects.
This trial tests whether giving medicine to prevent blood clots during varicose vein treatment is safe and helpful. It focuses on people having a minimally invasive procedure on enlarged leg veins under local anesthesia.
This trial tests if taking aspirin after delivery helps prevent dangerous blood clots in women with certain risk factors. It's for new mothers who have a clotting disorder, were on bed rest, or have multiple other risk factors like high weight or preeclampsia.
This trial tests whether adding a blood thinner (anticoagulant) to steroid therapy is more effective than steroids alone for treating deep vein thrombosis (a blood clot in a large vein) in people with Behçet's syndrome. It aims to find the best way to prevent future clots and reduce side effects.
