Summary

This trial is testing if a drug can prevent blood clots in cancer patients with a central venous catheter.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with any type of cancer who have had a central venous catheter (CVC) placed in the last 72 hours. It's not suitable for those with severe liver disease, low platelets, CVC older than 72 hours, other anticoagulation needs, recent major bleeding, pregnancy plans within three months, certain skin cancers only, life expectancy under three months or known allergies to rivaroxaban.
What is being tested?
The trial tests if a blood thinner called Rivaroxaban can prevent blood clots in cancer patients who have a CVC. The goal is to see how effective and safe this medication is at stopping clots from forming without causing too many side effects.
What are the potential side effects?
Rivaroxaban may cause bleeding problems since it's designed to prevent clotting. This could range from minor bruising to more serious internal bleeds. There might also be risks of allergic reactions or liver issues due to the medication.
