ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating whether aspirin or rivaroxaban, a type of blood thinner, can help prevent blood clots in patients with multiple myeloma, a type of cancer that affects the blood. Researchers want to see which of these two treatments is more effective and safe for patients who are at high risk of developing blood clots related to their condition. The study is specifically looking at adults aged 18 to 90 who have newly diagnosed multiple myeloma and a life expectancy of over a year.

To participate, patients must meet certain criteria, such as having a specific diagnosis of multiple myeloma and being considered at high risk for blood clots. Those who are pregnant, have active bleeding, or certain other health issues won't be eligible. If chosen to participate, individuals can expect to receive either aspirin or rivaroxaban and will be monitored by the study team to ensure their safety and gather important information about how well the treatments work. This study will help improve care for patients with multiple myeloma and potentially reduce the risk of serious complications from blood clots.
