About this trial
The goal of this study is to fill the paucity of second line endovascular treatment for acute deep venous thrombus (DVT) by using catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) as adjunctive second-line treatments for acute DVT patients who show no improvement after an initial anticoagulation trial for one week. The main questions the study aims to answer are:
\- Are adjunctive use of endovascular interventional treatments as second-line to DVT treatment safe and efficient?
Participants will be followed with repeat US at 1 week after initial DVT to assess for response to anticoagulation treatment. If there is significant residual thrombus with minimal or no response to treatment, participants will be offered enrollment to the study in the office or inpatient setting. Enrolled participants will be randomized into control or intervention arms with 1:1 ratio. Researchers will compare follow-up Villalta and Marder scores between groups to see whether endovascular interventions are safe and efficient.

Treatments tested in this trial
Thrombolysis/Thrombectomy
Other interventionEndovascular interventions will be either catheter directed thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy procedures both of which have been cleared by FDA for the treatment of acute DVT. Catheter-directed thrombolysis involves the use of a catheter to deliver thrombolytic agents directly to the site of the clot, effectively dissolving the thrombus. Mechanical thrombectomy, on the other hand, employs specialized devices to physically remove the clot from the vessel. These procedures have been cleared by FDA as they are targeted approaches to safely and effectively restore blood flow and reduce the risk of complications associated with acute DVT.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Efficacy of Endovascular Treatments Clinically
The clinical symptoms will be evaluated to assess the efficacy of treatments treatment with Villalta score which ranges from 0 to 33 where higher score is the more severe disease The scores will be compared between arms at the end of the study.

Secondary outcomes
Safety of Endovascular Treatments
Any adverse events occurred within 30 days of procedure will be reviewed and categorized by the current Society of Interventional Radiology guidelines.
