“…Our data supported that, in patients treated with ibrutinib, the rate of thrombosis was low (3·9%) and the cumulative incidence of VTE was lower than expected as compared to historical controls (0·6 per 100 person‐years in our study compared to 1·5 per 100 person‐years in prior studies of CLL patients) (Whittle et al , ; Simkovic et al , )’. However, many patients in our study received concomitant antiplatelet agents or AC (39·6% and 8·3%, respectively), which may have reduced the risk of thrombosis even though the median overlap was short.…”

“…Ibrutinib also inhibits other tyrosine kinases which may be responsible for its well‐established toxicities of atrial fibrillation (AF) and bleeding as well as increased risk of haemorrhage when combined with anticoagulation (AC) or antiplatelet agents (Byrd et al , ; Berglof et al , ; Lipsky et al , ). The population most likely to be exposed to ibrutinib is at higher risk for thrombosis given the presence of a maligiancy, such as chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), where the risk of venous thrombosis (VTE) was ~1·5 per 100 patients years, as well increased age where VTE risk is higher (Whittle et al , ; Heit, ; Simkovic et al , ). Additionally, arterial thrombosis risk also increases with age and in malignancy, and ibrutinib increases risk of AF, which may increase stroke (Leong et al , ; Wiczer et al , ).…”

“…CLL has not been associated with a high incidence of thrombosis. However, recent studies have shown incidence rates may be as high as other leukemias – 5%–11% 105,106. The risk factors for VTE is these studies were age >60 years, advanced stage of CLL, CLL treatment, and inherited thrombophilia.…”

“…Because targeting miRs has proved beneficial in humans and animal studies [29,66], miR-15a-5p may be a potential therapeutic target in disorders of hemostasis or thrombosis. For example, although numerous mechanisms may be at play in the relatively frequent venous thromboembolisms seen in CLL [67], reduced miR-15a-5p could contribute to this complication by enhancing signaling through GPVI, in which case in vivo administration of miR-15a-5p may be a potential therapeutic. Alternatively, miR-15a-5p appears to be overexpressed in infectious and inflammatory disorders [51] and may contribute to platelet dysfunction, bleeding and vascular permeability [68], such that anti-miR therapy could have a useful role in these pathophysiologies.…”
