STRATEGY-PE: Real-World Treatment Strategies for Intermediate-High Risk Pulmonary Embolism (STRATEGY-PE)

Real-World Comparative Effectiveness and Safety of Anticoagulation, Thrombolysis, and Mechanical Thrombectomy in Intermediate-Risk Acute Pulmonary Embolism: A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study

This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of three treatment strategies (Anticoagulation, Thrombolysis, and Mechanical Thrombectomy) for patients with intermediate-high risk acute pulmonary embolism (PE) in a real-world setting. Approximately 1,300 patients will be enrolled across multiple centers in China. Patients will be followed for 90 days to assess mortality, heart function recovery, bleeding risks, and quality of life. The results will help guide personalized treatment decisions and healthcare policy.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Background: Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a severe manifestation of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Intermediate-high risk PE accounts for 20-30% of all PE cases with significant mortality driven by right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. Current guidelines recommend anticoagulation for all, with thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy as rescue or alternative therapies. However, there is significant heterogeneity in real-world treatment selection and a lack of head-to-head comparative evidence among the three strategies in complex real-world populations.

Objective: To compare the 30-day and 90-day all-cause mortality and 48-hour RV/LV ratio improvement rate among three treatment strategies (Anticoagulation, Thrombolysis, Mechanical Thrombectomy) in patients with intermediate-high risk acute PE.

Design: This is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, pragmatic cohort study. Treatment allocation is based on routine clinical decision-making (natural allocation) without investigator intervention. Advanced statistical methods (Propensity Score Matching/Weighting, Instrumental Variable analysis) will be used to control for confounding factors.

Participants: 1,300 patients with confirmed acute intermediate-high risk PE (RV/LV ratio ≥0.9 and elevated cardiac biomarkers, hemodynamically stable). There are no age limits to reflect real-world diversity.

Interventions/Exposures:

  1. Anticoagulation (AC): Standard anticoagulant therapy (LMWH, DOAC, UFH, or Warfarin).
  2. Thrombolysis (TL): Systemic thrombolysis or Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis (CDT) using agents like Urokinase, Alteplase, etc.
  3. Mechanical Thrombectomy (MT): Mechanical removal of thrombus using FDA/NMPA approved devices (e.g., Indigo, FlowTriever, Acoscream), with or without adjunctive anticoagulation/thrombolysis.

Outcomes:

  • Primary: 30-day and 90-day all-cause mortality; 48-hour RV/LV ratio improvement rate (≥15% reduction).
  • Secondary: Clinical deterioration, major bleeding (ISTH/GUSTO/BARC), functional status (6MWT, NYHA, PVFS), quality of life (PEmb-QoL, EQ-5D-5L), PE recurrence, and healthcare resource utilization.

Follow-up: Patients will be followed at 48 hours, 7 days, 30 days, and 90 days.
