If you’re attending #ISTH25, be sure to learn about “Predictors of Anticoagulant-Related Bleeding in Patients with Cancer: A Meta-Analysis” in room 202 A & B at 245pm today in the Cancer and Thrombosis I session presented by Faizan Khan, PhD #thrombosis #research

🩸 Do you wonder if abiraterone has drug–drug interactions with DOACs in patients with cancer? A population-level study in men with prostate cancer found no increased bleeding risk with concurrent use of abiraterone and DOACs vs. other anticoagulants. Tzu-Fei Wang 📍 #ISTH2025

🩸 Meta-analysis presented at #ISTH2025 and simultaneously published in EHJ Editor-in-Chief found that several risk factors (e.g., previous history of VTE or bleeding, advanced cancer, and specific cancer sites) are associated with recurrent VTE and bleeding in patients with CAT.

🫁 A COPD-specific diagnostic strategy for PE was retrospectively validated and found to be safe using a 3-item score + D-dimer with 2 cut-offs, 50% of patients avoided imaging. 🔍 Signs of DVT, non-purulent AECOPD, and PE as most likely dx #ISTH2025 #VTE #COPD

🩸 Clots tend to come back at the same site as the index VTE! Among 708 patients with prior VTE, recurrences often occurred at the same site as the original event, especially ipsilateral DVTs. Familiar symptoms? Trust your clinical instincts. #ISTH2025 #VTE #DVT

🧠 Diagnosing recurrent VTE is challenging. PREDICTORS study (n=723) showed that existing clinical decision rules (CDRs) identify patients at higher risk and RO recurrence without imaging in ~15% 📊 In low/moderate-risk PE with negative D-dimer: 🟢 0/82 recurrent VTE (0%; 95% CI
