Abstract

Background: Venous thromboembolism is a major complication of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We hypothesized that a weight-adjusted intermediate dose of anticoagulation may decrease the risk of venous thromboembolism COVID-19 patients.

Methods: In this multicenter, randomised, open-label, phase 4, superiority trial with blinded adjudication of outcomes, we randomly assigned adult patients hospitalised in 20 French centers and presenting with acute respiratory SARS-CoV-2. Eligible patients were randomly assigned (1:1 ratio) to receive an intermediate weight-adjusted prophylactic dose or a fixed-dose of subcutaneous low-molecular-weight heparin during the hospital stay. The primary outcome corresponded to symptomatic deep-vein thrombosis (fatal) pulmonary embolism during hospitalization (COVI-DOSE ClinicalTrials.gov number: NCT04373707).

Findings: Between May 2020, and April 2021, 1000 patients underwent randomisation in medical wards (noncritically ill) (80.1%) and intensive care units (critically ill) (19.9%); 502 patients were assigned to receive a weight-adjusted intermediate dose, and 498 received fixed-dose thromboprophylaxis. Symptomatic venous thromboembolism occurred in 6 of 502 patients (1.2%) in the weight-adjusted dose group and in 10 of 498 patients (2.1%) in the fixed-dose group (subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.22-1.63; P = 0.31). There was a twofold increased risk of major or clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding: 5.9% in the weight-adjusted dose group and 3.1% in the fixed-dose group (P = 0.034).

Interpretation: In the COVI-DOSE trial, the observed rate of thromboembolic events was lower than expected in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 infection, and the study was unable to show a significant difference in the risk of venous thromboembolism between the two low-molecular-weight-heparin regimens.

Funding: French Ministry of Health, CAPNET, Grand-Est Region, Grand-Nancy Métropole.

Flow chart. Between May 2020 and April 2021, 1005 patients were included in 20 centers: 502 were randomly assigned to receive a weight-adjusted prophylactic dose of low-molecular-weight heparin, and 498 received a fixed prophylactic dose. Thus, 1000 patients were considered in the intention-to-treat analysis.

Cumulative Event Rates for the Primary Outcome. The curves are shown for the first occurrence of the primary outcome of adjudicated symptomatic recurrent venous thromboembolism defined as symptomatic deep-vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism or venous thromboembolism-related death during the hospital stay. The inset shows the same data on an expanded y-axis.

Descriptive Subgroup Analyses for the Primary Outcome. Subgroup analyses were conducted in the intention-to-treat population. The size of each square indicates the treatment effect, and arrows indicate 95% confidence intervals that extend past the boundary of the graph. Body mass index is the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters. Abbreviation: ECMO: extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
