Isabelle Mahé: Cancer Site, Bleeding Risk, and Reduced-Dose Apixaban in Cancer-Associated Thrombosis
Isabelle Mahé, Head of Internal Medicine at Louis Mourier Hospital, APHP at Paris Cité University, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, adding:
”Bleeding risk varies according to solid cancer site, with a low risk of CRB in breast cancer (6·2%) and a narrow range across other solid tumours (15·4–18·5%) (original Article recently published in The Lancet Haematology)

In patients with CAT receiving extended treatment, reduced-dose apixaban is non inferior to full dose apixaban, and is associated with a significant 25% reduction in the risk of Clinically Relevant Bleeding (APICAT study published in NEJM Group)”
