In case of an emergency, the investigator has the responsibility for determining if unblinding of a participant's intervention assignment is warranted. Participant safety must always be the first consideration in making such a determination. The participant will be carrying a card with contact information of investigator and the medical monitor. The card will be in Norwegian and in English and inform that the person is part of a blinded trial and that he/she may be under anticoagulation with apixaban. In case of major bleeding, the investigator must be contacted who may unblind the participant so that emergency treatment can be considered. In case of a life-threatening bleed, there is no time for contacting the investigator. Then measures must be taken as if the participant is under anticoagulation treatment with apixaban"}, 'primaryPurpose': 'TREATMENT', 'interventionModel': 'CROSSOVER', 'interventionModelDescription': 'Randomized study, crossover design, double-blind'}, 'enrollmentInfo': {'type': 'ESTIMATED', 'count': 20}}, 'statusModule': {'overallStatus': 'NOT_YET_RECRUITING', 'startDateStruct': {'date': '2025-02-01', 'type': 'ESTIMATED'}, 'expandedAccessInfo': {'hasExpandedAccess': False}, 'statusVerifiedDate': '2024-10', 'completionDateStruct': {'date': '2031-12-31', 'type': 'ESTIMATED'}, 'lastUpdateSubmitDate': '2024-12-06', 'studyFirstSubmitDate': '2024-10-30', 'studyFirstSubmitQcDate': '2024-12-06', 'lastUpdatePostDateStruct': {'date': '2024-12-11', 'type': 'ACTUAL'}, 'studyFirstPostDateStruct': {'date': '2024-12-11', 'type': 'ACTUAL'}, 'primaryCompletionDateStruct': {'date': '2030-12-31', 'type': 'ESTIMATED'}}, 'outcomesModule': {'primaryOutcomes': [{'measure': 'Difference between apixaban and placebo in change of self-reported pain intensity before and 8 weeks after starting treatment Change in type, dose and frequency of pain medication', 'timeFrame': 'From enrollment to the end of treatment at 8 and 17 weeks', 'description': 'Average numeric rating scale (NRS) score(score 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents worst imaginable pain) last 7 days before assessment'}, {'measure': 'Change in pain medication', 'timeFrame': 'From enrollment to the end of treatment at 8 and 17 weeks', 'description': 'Registration of type, dose and frequency of pain medication last 7 days before assessment'}], 'secondaryOutcomes': [{'measure': 'Difference between apixaban and placebo in change of quality of life before and 8 weeks after starting treatment', 'timeFrame': 'From enrollment until end of treatment, at 8 and 17 weeks', 'description': 'Outcome Measure for Vascular Malformation (OVAMA) questionnaire'}, {'measure': 'Difference between apixaban and placebo in change of quality of life before and 8 weeks after starting treatment', 'timeFrame': 'From enrollment until end of treatment, at 8 and 17 weeks]', 'description': 'Short form survey-36 (SF-36)'}, {'measure': 'Difference between apixaban and placebo in change in coagulation parameters before and 8 weeks after', 'timeFrame': 'From enrollment until after end of treatment at 8 and 17 weeks', 'description': 'D-dimer'}, {'measure': 'Change in pain intensity after 3 months treatment', 'timeFrame': 'From enrollment of Part 2 until completion of treatment at 6 months', 'description': 'Numeric rating scale (NRS) score at time of evaluation (score 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents worst imaginable pain)'}, {'measure': 'Change in pain intensity three months after reducing dose', 'timeFrame': 'At changing dose at 3 months after enrollment of Part 2 and after 6 months ( end of treatment)', 'description': 'Numeric rating scale (NRS) score at time of evaluation (score 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents worst imaginable pain)'}]}, 'oversightModule': {'isUsExport': False, 'oversightHasDmc': False, 'isFdaRegulatedDrug': False, 'isFdaRegulatedDevice': False}, 'conditionsModule': {'keywords': ['apixaban', 'venous malformation', 'localized intravascular coagulation'], 'conditions': ['Venous Malformation, Low Flow', 'Anticoagulants']}, 'referencesModule': {'references': [{'pmid': '36328137', 'type': 'BACKGROUND', 'citation': 'Liu H, Hu L, Yang X, Xu Z, Gu H, Chen H, Lin X.

In Part 1, the invesitgaotrs want to investigate whether treatment with apixaban improves pain and quality of life in patients with painful venous malformations The participants are randomized to different treatment orders of the two treatment periods with apixaban and placebo. Arm 1 starts apixaban followed by placebo and arm 2 starts with placebo followed by apixaban. Between the treatment sequences there will be a washout period of minimum one week.\n\nThe participants will register pain and use og pain medication in a diary every day for one week before start of treatment and before evaluation of effect. Also, a quality of life form will be filled out before each consultation.\n\nIn Part 2, the investigators will investigate long-term effect and safety of apixaban and reduce dose after 3 months to find the minimal effective dose.\n\nPart 2 includes participants from Part 1 study who experienced effect of treatment or who agree to continue apixaban treatment. Study start of Part 2 is at the end of Part 1. All participants receive the same dose of apixaban as in part 1 (5 mg twice daily), and after 3 months (visit 2) the dose is reduced to 2.5 mg twice daily.', 'detailedDescription': 'There are no established universal guidelines on the hematologic management of patients with venous malformations (VM) with and without localized intravascular coagulopathy (LIC).

Study start of AVA long (part 2) is at study end of part 1. The participants receive the dose of apixaban as in part 1 (5 mg twice daily), but open-label, and after 3 months (visit 2) the dose is reduced to 2.5 mg twice daily.
