Recruiting NA Venous Thromboembolism

Compares treatment options for Venous Thromboembolism

Official title DEFIANCE: RCT of ClotTriever System Versus Anticoagulation In Deep Vein Thrombosis

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05701917

What this study is testing

What is Commercially available/market approved anticoagulation medication including but not limited to: Heparin Sodium, Coumadin, Rivaroxaban, Apixaban, etc.?

Commercially available/market approved anticoagulation medication including but not limited to: Heparin Sodium, Coumadin, Rivaroxaban, Apixaban, etc. is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for venous thromboembolism.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial of an interventional strategy using the ClotTriever System to achieve and maintain vessel patency (ClotTriever Intervention Arm) versus conservative medical management using anticoagulation therapy alone (Conservative Medical Management Arm) in the treatment of subjects with symptomatic unilateral iliofemoral DVT. The study will collect data on demographics, comorbidities, details from the DVT diagnosis and treatment, and clinical outcomes through the 6-month follow up visit.

Who can take part

Ages 18 and older

You may be able to join if

  • Inability to be a candidate for intervention due to medical or technical reasons based on physician judgement
  • Severe allergy, hypersensitivity to, or thrombocytopenia from heparin
  • Severe allergy to iodinated contrast agents that cannot be mitigated
  • Hemoglobin \ 1.7 before warfarin was started, or platelets \< 50,000/µl which cannot be corrected prior to enrollment
  • Severe renal impairment (estimated GFR \< 30 ml/min) in patients who are not yet on dialysis
  • Inability to provide therapeutic anticoagulation per Investigator discretion
  • Uncontrolled severe hypertension on repeated readings (systolic \> 180mmHg or diastolic \> 105mmHg)
  • Recently (\< 30 days) had DVT treatment procedure
  • Subject is participating in another study that may interfere with this study
  • Life expectancy \< 6 months or chronic non-ambulatory status
  • Known hypercoagulable states that, in the opinion of the Investigator, cannot be medically managed throughout the study period
