Kinetics of Microparticles Under Chemotherapy in Patients With Gastric or Pancreatic Cancer (DOMICA)

February 12, 2020 updated by: Poitiers University Hospital

Study of the Kinetics of Microparticles Under Chemotherapy in Patients With Gastric or Pancreatic Cancer

Microparticles have recently emerged as a thrombotic risk marker with a potential role in determining which patients are at greatest risk for developing thrombosis. Available data show an increase in the level of microparticles in cancer patients who are undergoing chemotherapy for solid tumors with a possible link to their thrombogenic state.

Our study focuses on the kinetics of microparticles under chemotherapy in patients with pancreatic or gastric cancer by serial measurements of microparticles procoagulant activity.

Detailed Description:

The impact of chemotherapy on microparticles expression will be assessed by measuring their procoagulant activity on blood samples taken during the course of chemotherapy. The thrombotic risk will be evaluated by the score of Khorana in parallel. Microparticles expression in patients with thrombosis will be compared to that in other patients.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Microparticles level will be assessed by automated and standardised measure of their procoagulant power using Kit STA©Procoag-PPL (Diagnostica Stago, Asnière, France)
Time Frame: Before chemotherapies #1 to #6
Before chemotherapies #1 to #6
Microparticles level will be assessed by automated and standardised measure of their procoagulant power using Kit STA©Procoag-PPL (Diagnostica Stago, Asnière, France)
Time Frame: After 6 hours of chemotherapies #1 to #6
After 6 hours of chemotherapies #1 to #6

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
incidence of thrombosis during study
Time Frame: Before chemotherapies #1 to #6 and one year after inclusion.
Deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism
Before chemotherapies #1 to #6 and one year after inclusion.
Khorana score does assess the risk of thrombosis uner chemotherapy according to 3 levels :Score 0, 1, 2 or 3
Time Frame: Before chemotherapies #1 to #6
Score 0= low risk (incidence of thrombosis = 0.3%) Score 1 or 2= intermediate risk (incidence of thrombosis = 2%) Score >3 = high risk (incidence of thrombosis = 6.7%) The highest possible score is 6.
Before chemotherapies #1 to #6
