Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of a blood thinning drug called Apixaban
versus no administration of a blood thinning drug, in preventing blood clots in children with
leukemia or lymphoma. Patients must be receiving chemotherapy, including asparaginase, and
have a central line (a catheter inserted for administration of medications and blood
sampling)
