U.S., Sept. 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT05049148) titled 'Platelets Activation in Brain Neoplasms' on Aug. 18.
Brief Summary: Platelets are primarily known for their central role in primary hemostasis. However, they are increasingly recognized for their participation in various non-hemostatic processes, such as cancer progression and clinical expression. Experimental and clinical data indicate that the involvement of platelets in the pathophysiology of cancer goes far beyond the realm of cancer-associated thrombosis.
Several experimental studies have shown that platelets can promote the metastatic process by various mechanisms. However, while it has been shown in vitro that direct contac...
