Prospective cohort BACH-VTE study results are out. High rates of clinically-relevant bleeding and, unfortunately, poor performances of bleeding prediction scores (HAS-BLED, RIETE, VTE-BLEED snd VTE-PREDICT) in patients on anticoagulation for VTE👇#ISTH2024 Cihan Ay

Dr. Deborah Siegal reported the results of the VVIRTUOSO prospective cohort study. Symptomatic VTE is rare following hospitalization with COVID infection (0.9% (0.3-2.18 at 90 days)) and below threshold to evaluate thromboprophylaxis #ISTH2024 CanVECTOR Network Thrombosis Canada INVENT-VTE

Low dose colchicine could target inflammation in VTE, reduce PTS without increasing bleeding🩸! Stay tune for the CONQUEROR DVT pilot trial (double blind, placebo controlled RTC in pts with first LE proximal DVT) proposed by Nicola Potere Marc Carrier #ISTH2024

A great SOA talk by Dr. Geoff Barnes at #ISTH2024 on new anti-thrombotic agents, especially FXI inhibitors with ongoing active phase III studies which we look forward for more results in the coming years!

Do you struggle with whether to use anticoagulation for tumor thrombus? Hui et al. showed that patients with tumor thrombus have high risks of VTE, bleeding and mortality, and unfortunately the role of anticoagulation remains unclear. Tzu-Fei Wang Marc Carrier Read more at

Interesting results with abelacimab in patients with AF NEJM 👇 Can uncoupling hemostasis and thrombosis by blocking FXI also help address unmet need in cancer-associated thrombosis? Can't wait for the results of the ASTER and MAGNOLIA trials! nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… @Anthos_Tx

Anticoagulant-related bleeding: 30-day incidence of mortality was 19.4% in patients with solid tumors. ICH alone increased risk of mortality 6-fold and GI bleeding 3-fold. Prediction of these adverse events could improve survival. #Hematology #Oncology doi.org/10.1002/ajh.27…

Terrific and provocative data from Moik et al/Cihan Ay Vienna CATS group showing how starting ICI tx can lead to CRP rise/drop. CRP rise strongly associated with cancer-VTE. Important implications for understanding the pro-inflammatory state induced by ICI therapy

The RENOVE trial found that while low-dose DOACs did not meet non-inferiority for preventing recurrent VTE, it showed a better risk-benefit ratio, with less clinically relevant bleeding. Dose reduction may be a good option for many patients! thelancet.com/journals/lance… Francis Couturaud
