Low molecular weight heparin vs vitamin K antagonist secondary prophylaxis

Minor bleeding (main analysis ‐ active cancer) · patients with cancer with venous thromboembolism

It is very uncertain whether low molecular weight heparin secondary prophylaxis changes minor bleeding (main analysis ‐ active cancer) compared with vitamin K antagonist secondary prophylaxis (very low certainty).

Low molecular weight heparin vs vitamin K antagonist (VKA)

Minor bleeding · people with cancer with thrombosis prophylaxis and central venous catheters

It is very uncertain whether low‐molecular‐weight heparin (LMWH) changes minor bleeding (up to 3 months) compared with vitamin K antagonist (VKA) (very low certainty).

Direct oral anticoagulant secondary prophylaxis vs Low molecular weight heparin secondary prophylaxis

Minor lower GI bleeding · patients with cancer with venous thromboembolism

Direct oral anticoagulant secondary prophylaxis showed no clear difference in minor lower GI bleeding compared with low molecular weight heparin secondary prophylaxis (low certainty).

Vitamin K antagonists vs low molecular weight heparin

Minor bleeding · ambulatory patients with multiple myeloma receiving immunomodulatory agents

It is very uncertain whether vitamin K antagonist (VKA) changes minor bleeding compared with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) (very low certainty).

Direct oral anticoagulant secondary prophylaxis vs Low molecular weight heparin secondary prophylaxis

Minor bleeding · patients with cancer with venous thromboembolism

Direct oral anticoagulant secondary prophylaxis probably leads to higher minor bleeding compared with low molecular weight heparin secondary prophylaxis (moderate certainty).
