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!


One dose of LMWH or UFH in the OR may be associated with a non-significant improved DFS at 3 years, shown in the new post-hoc analysis of PERI-OP 01 trial authors.elsevier.com/c/1jgDr_17tKVJ… Marc Carrier Ottawa Methods Centre

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

Alok Khorana, MD I would also like to refer to the informative editorial comment written by Tzu-Fei Wang giving a good overview and discussion of the topic. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

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

Post-hoc analysis of the Hokusai VTE Cancer trial showed that treatment for recurrent VTE on AC were heterogeneous, and there were high risks of second recurrent VTE (9%) and major bleeding (10%) within 3 months! doi.org/10.1016/j.jtha… JTH Gary Raskob Marc Carrier
