Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Lower Limb Deep Vein Thrombosis in Tumor Patients

August 24, 2025 updated by: RenJi Hospital

Clinical Comparative Study of Mechanical Thrombectomy and Simple Anticoagulation Therapy for Acute Lower Limb Deep Vein Thrombosis in Tumor Patients Under VTE Prevention and Control System

This study will conduct a prospective single blind controlled study on the clinical efficacy and safety indicators of 50 cancer patients with acute lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The patients were randomly divided into an experimental group (improved mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) group) and a control group (traditional simple anticoagulation group) using the "envelope method", with 25 cases each. After the end of treatment, clinical prognosis evaluations were conducted on the patient's vital signs, symptoms and signs, lower limb Doppler ultrasound examination, patient PTS score (Villalta score), quality of life score (QOL), etc. at 3, 6, and 12 months. Adverse events, the presence or absence of thrombus recurrence, and re surgical intervention were recorded. This study is expected to propose a new strategy for the treatment of acute DVT in cancer patients, thereby improving the overall level of VTE prevention and treatment.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Other: Improved approach mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) group
Procedure: mechanical thrombectomy (PMT)
After the establishment of the pathway, Angiojet (Boco, USA) was used to infuse urokinase into the blood vessels of the thrombotic segment. After waiting for 15 minutes, mechanical thrombectomy was performed. After thrombectomy, the effectiveness of thrombectomy was evaluated through angiography. For residual thrombi, repeated thrombectomy was performed, with a maximum thrombectomy volume of 480ml. After thrombectomy, antegrade angiography of the dorsal vein of the foot was performed again. If iliac vein stenosis was found to be greater than 50%, Then, Mustang balloons (Boko, USA) that match the normal blood vessel diameter are used for dilation. If the residual stenosis after dilation is greater than 30%, Wallsten stents that match the normal blood vessel diameter are inserted (Boko, USA). After all operations are completed, a dorsalis pedis venography is performed again to evaluate the thrombus burden and calculate the immediate thrombus clearance rate and thrombus clearance level.
No Intervention: Traditional simple anticoagulant group
