Grigoris Gerotziafas, Director of the Cancer, Vessels, Biology, and Therapeutics (CaVITE) Research Department, Head of the CRSA at Sorbonne University, shared on LinkedIn:
”APICAT study post hoc analysis, Just published: During extended treatment for cancer-associated VTE, four predictors of clinically relevant bleeding were identified in the overall population of patients treated with apixaban, with no evidence of interaction with the dosing regimen.
Anaemia and/or thrombocytopenia, age 75 years or older, pulmonary embolism as the index event, and male sex were significantly associated with an increased risk of clinically relevant bleeding.
