Brief Summary

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common disease in cancer patients and one of the major causes of cancer-associated mortality. Risk for developing VTE increases when cancer patients are receiving chemotherapy. Current risk scores for predicting cancer-associated VTE in ambulatory patients had low/moderate discrimination and clinical sensitivity. These models use clinical and biochemical parameters of the patient. In the development of VTE genetics play a relevant role. The product Thrombo inCode (TiC) assess VTE risk prediction by using a combination of a genetic risk score (GRS) and clinical parameters from the patient. The investigators hypothesized that the GRS included in TiC combined with clinical parameter some of them associated with cancer could be better predicted by TiC than by current risk scores (Khorana score). After publishing the primary results in 2018, we have expanded the GRS in a external validation cohort adding gliomas and biliary tract tumors. Also we have incorporated the assessment of D-dimer in order to improve the predictive capability.

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

The study will include patients diagnosed with colorectal, esophago-gastric, biliary tract, pancreas or lung cancer who have not previously been treated with chemotherapy or chemotherapy and radiation therapy and are candidate for chemotherapy in outpatient setting

You may qualify if:

  • Patients over 18 years of age.
  • Patients treated in outpatient clinics with a documented histological or cytological diagnosis for non-microcytic lung, colorectal, biliary tract cancer, pancreatic or esophago-gastric cancer at an advanced stage, locally advanced or localized not previously treated with systemic chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy who are candidate for chemotherapy in outpatient setting.
  • Performance status 0-2.
  • Patients signing the study informed consent form.

You may not qualify if:

  • Life expectancy of less than 3 months.
  • Patients undergoing anti-coagulant treatment before the cancer diagnosis for reasons other than a concurrent venous thromboembolic event.
