Study Summary

Some cancer patients starting a new chemotherapy regimen are likely to develop blood clots, also known as venous thromboembolism (VTE). Blood clots can cause symptoms and can occasionally be life-threatening. The purpose of this study is to determine if a daily injection of a blood-thinner, dalteparin, for 12 weeks can safely and effectively reduce the frequency of blood clots. Dalteparin is currently approved for prevention of blood clots following surgery and in hospitalized patients but not specifically for cancer outpatients.

Primary Outcome

The percentage of patients who developed a Venous thromboembolism were recorded within 12 weeks following randomization including all adjudicated occurrences of symptomatic DVT, PE and upper extremity thrombus as well as all asymptomatic DVT and PE detected by lower extremity ultrasonography and chest CT.
