Plain Language Summary
Simplified for easier understanding
This study is looking at the safety and effectiveness of blood thinners (anticoagulants) in people with cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) who have developed a blood clot in the portal vein — a major vein that supplies the liver. Some participants also have liver cancer (HCC).
**You may be eligible if...**
- You have liver cirrhosis (confirmed scarring of the liver)
- You have a clot in the portal vein
- Your liver disease is classified as Child-Pugh A or B (moderate severity)
- You may or may not have hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, a type of liver cancer)
**You may NOT be eligible if...**
- Your platelet count is very low (below 10,000)
- Your creatinine (kidney function marker) is above 1.9
- You have Budd-Chiari syndrome (a different type of liver blood clot condition)
- You have active, uncontrolled bleeding
