Bleeding disorders and risk
Carboplatin & Paclitaxel (CP)
CP: Carboplatin & Paclitaxel
Regimen
Study | Dates of enrollment | Evidence | Comparator | Comparative Efficacy |
---|---|---|---|---|
Forde et al. 2022 (CheckMate 816) | 2017-2019 | Phase 3 (C) | 1a. CP & Nivolumab 1b. CVb & Nivolumab 1c. DC & Nivolumab |
Inferior EFS |
Note: there were additional comparator options depending on histology; see the respective histology-specific pages for more details. This study was conducted in the United States. The reason for the study was that an unanswered question at the time was whether adding an immune checkpoint inhibitor would improve outcomes.
Biomarker eligibility criteria

Initial evaluation
- Bleeding history (acquired or inherited disorder?)
- Spontaneous or provoked by surgery, tooth extraction, etc.
- Tolerance of prior surgery
- Menses
- Mucocutaneous bleeding, petechiae, oozing at line sites
- Bruising, hemarthrosis
- Family history--known hemophilia A, hemophilia B, von Willebrand disease (VWD), platelet function disorder
- Need for transfusion or product
- History of trauma, surgery
- PT/INR
- PTT
- Platelet count
- +/- fibrinogen (DIC), D-dimer, fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products (FDP)
- Kidney disease (uremia)
- Medications: anticoagulants, antiplatelet medications such as aspirin and Clopidogrel (Plavix), NSAIDS, antidepressants which cause decrease in platelet function
Bleeding Score
This is a quantitative assessment of bleeding risk based on history, and can predict the likelihood of VWD Type I.
