About this trial

Superficial venous thrombosis (SVT) is very common in clinical practice. What's more, around 15- 20% of SVTs occur in the context of cancer. Today, cancer patients are excluded from therapeutic trials for DVT. There is therefore no high-level evidence-based treatment recommendation for these patients. Recent data suggest that the course of cancer-associated DVT is similar to that of cancer-associated deep vein thrombosis (DVT). However, there are currently few prospective data on the evolution of cancer-associated DVT in relation to the treatment used. Due to the absence of clear recommendations of treatment in case of SVT associated with cancer the investigators will perform a prospective observational study to evaluate the efficacy of different regiment of anticoagulant treatment ordered in clinical practice.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patient over 18

Patient affiliated to a social security scheme

Patient who understands French

Patient with superficial venous thrombosis of the lower and upper limbs confirmed by a Doppler ultrasound less than one month old.

Disqualifiers

Patients under legal protection

Patients with concomitant pulmonary embolism

Patient with proximal or distal deep vein thrombosis

Patient treated with anticoagulant therapy for another indication

Trial population

Patient with active cancer: * Cancer treatment within the last 6 months, * Detectable tumor disease, cancer treatment within the last 6 months, ongoing hormone therapy for cancer, palliative cancer. * The patient has received potentially non-curative cancer treatment (notably palliative chemotherapy). * Progression shows that the cancer treatment was not curative (due to recurrence or progression under treatment) (particularly in the case of recurrence after surgery)
