Epidemiology and biomarkers in transplant associated thrombotic microangiopathy

Content

A Prospective Validation Cohort Study: The goals are to prospectively assess the incidence of TA-TMA in a large pediatric cohort and to test a dynamic risk prediction tool that incorporates validated clinical and laboratory biomarkers in immune, endothelial, and complement activation pathways.

Funding: NIH/NHLBI - K23HL159271, April 1, 2022 - March 31, 2027

Heading

Epidemiology, health disparity, and risk stratification for cancer associated thrombosis

Content

The goal of this project is to study the epidemiology and prevention of cancer-associated thrombosis and to determine the patient and societal impact of a thromboprophylaxis program.

Funding:

  • Cancer Prevention & Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) RR190104,  Aug. 31, 2019 - Aug. 30, 2024
  • NIH AIM-AHEAD, 3OT2OD032581-01S1, Sept. 17, 2022 - Sept. 16, 2023

Heading

Risk factors and burden of COVID-19 related thrombosis and bleeding complication:

Content

The goals are to determine the incidence of thrombosis and bleeding and to assess benefit/harm of therapeutic anticoagulation among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 across different hospital systems. There was a specific focus on people with cancer and thrombosis.

Funding: CDC - 6NU38OT000280-03-02, Sept. 1, 2020 - Jul 31, 2022

Heading

Management of thrombosis and bleeding in hematopoietic cell transplant patients:

Content

The goals are to assess the incidence of and risk factors for thrombosis and bleeding in people undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation. A novel risk prediction model was derived and externally validated.

Heading

Rapid diagnosis of immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura

Content

The goals are to characterize patients with high pre-test probability for iTTP. Specifically, a risk prediction model was derived and externally validated for iTTP.

Heading

Comparative and cost effectiveness research in hematology

Content

The gaosl are to better understand the societal implications of novel treatment approaches in anticoagulation through systematic review, meta-analysis, and cost effectiveness analysis.
