Impact of breast cancer stage time from diagnosis and chemotherapy on plasma and cellular biomarkers of hypercoagulability

摘要

BackgroundIn breast cancer patients routine thromboprophylaxis is not recommended but individualized risk assessment is encouraged. The incorporation of hypercoagulability biomarkers could increase the sensitivity of risk assessment models (RAM) to identify patients at VTE risk. To this aim we investigated the impact of cancer-related characteristics on hypercoagulability biomarkers.
