In this episode of CLOT Conversations, experts discuss recent research on cancer-associated thrombosis and the predictors of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) and anticoagulant-related bleeding. Dr. Faizan Khan, a leading researcher in the field, explains the results of their study that aimed to offer a comprehensive understanding of the prognostic factors associated with these risks. Hear what he says about the evidence for associations of several patient- and cancer-related factors, and the risk of recurrent VTE. This research is expected to inform clinical practice by promoting a more individualized approach to anticoagulant management in cancer patients.
