Feasibility and safety of delivering full-dose anticoagulation therapy in children treated according to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute acute lymphoblastic leukemia consortium therapy protocols.

Background: The literature is void of an evidence-based anticoagulation therapy (ACT) management strategy in the context of thrombocytopenia. We examined the impact of thrombocytopenia on low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) dosing and incidence of bleeding in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL) who developed thromboembolism (TE) during therapy according to DFCI ALL protocols.

Procedure: Patient records from our tertiary care center were reviewed for demographics, details of diagnoses and therapy of ALL/LL and TE diagnoses, platelet counts during ACT, LMWH dosing, and bleeding episodes.
