Recruiting NA Heparin-induced Thrombocytopenia

New treatment option for Heparin-induced Thrombocytopenia

Official title Characterization and Quantification of Platelet/Leukocyte Aggregates in Patients With Suspected Heparin-induced Thrombocytopenia

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06033300

What this study is testing

What is blood sample?

blood sample is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.

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
The investigators would like to analyze platelet/leukoplak activation, quantify and morphologically characterize these aggregates using in vitro analysis, directly on whole blood from adult patients with suspected HIT. This would enable to better describe the in vivo pathophysiology of the HIT-suspect patient, and eliminate the need for platelet donors to perform the usual confirmatory techniques, whose inter- and intra-individual variability is very high.
