Completed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Breast Cancer, Colorectal Cancer, Lung Cancer, Prostate Cancer, Veno-occlusive Disease

In brief

RATIONALE: Dalteparin may be effective in inhibiting the growth of blood vessels in tumors, decreasing the risk of metastatic cancer, preventing the formation of blood clots, and improving quality of life in treating patients with advanced cancer that has not responded to previous treatment. It is not yet known if standard therapy is more effective with or without dalteparin in treating advanced breast, lung, colorectal, and prostate cancer.
