Summary of the Proposed Research:
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent problem in patients with cancer. Over the last few years, with the introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), more treatment options have emerged. However, regardless of type of anticoagulation, patients with cancer-associated VTE still have a high risk of recurrent thrombosis in the first 6 months. Furthermore, cancer patients treated with anticoagulation are at higher risk of bleeding compared to patients without cancer.
Decisions about the optimal intensity and duration of anticoagulant treatment could be guided by risk assessment tools, which assess the risk of recurrent VTE or bleeding in cancer patients. For example, such tools could be used to decide in which patients a dose reduction to 75% after on month should be avoided because of high risk of recurrent VTE. On the other hand, bleeding risk scores could aid in the decision making of treatment duration in patients with a high risk of bleeding. To date, no risk prediction scores for bleeding in cancer patients are developed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to derivate and validate a new prediction model for recurrent VTE and a risk prediction model for bleeding in cancer patients.
