Outcomes of venous thromboembolism in patients with inherited thrombophilia treated with direct oral anticoagulants: insights from the RIETE registry
AbstractWhile direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are frequently used to treat venous thromboembolism (VTE), the outcomes of patients with inherited thrombophilia (IT) receiving DOACs for VTE remain understudied. We used data from the international RIETE registry to compare the rates of VTE recurrences, major bleeding, and mortality during anticoagulant treatment in VTE patients with and without IT, grouped by the use of DOACs or standard anticoagulant therapy. Among 103,818 enrolled patients, 21,089 (20.3%) were tested for IT, of whom 8422 (39.9%) tested positive: Protein C deficiency 294, Protein S deficiency 726, Antithr...
