Isabelle Mahé: Bleeding Risk Differs Across Solid Tumours in Cancer-Associated Thrombosis
Isabelle Mahé, Head of Internal Medicine at the Louis Mourier Hospital, APHP at Paris Cité University, shared a post on LinkedIn about several recent articles she and her colleagues co-authored, adding:
“Another way to express that 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%) (shown in figure 1 of the original Article recently published in The Lancet Haematology

In patients with CAT, 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 (published in NEJM Group)”

Faizan Khan, CIHR Banting Postdoctoral Fellow at University of Calgary, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article he and Nick van Es co-authored, adding:
”In a new publication from my Banting Canada postdoctoral fellowship out today in The Lancet Haematology, Nick van Es and I highlight the importance of considering different cancer sites for bleeding risk stratification in patients with cancer-associated Venous Thromboembolism.”
