Abstract

Thrombotic complications are common in COVID-19 cases; the objective of ACT-COAG is to measure the effect of study treatments on coagulation biomarkers to identify the most promising therapies early and unravel mechanisms of thrombotic complications. ACT COAG is a substudy of PHRI's ACT COVID-19 research program. PHRI is working in collaboration with scientists Jeffrey Weitz and Paul Kim at the Thrombosis and Atherosclerosis Research Institute (TaARI) in Hamilton, Canada, on the ACT COAG substudy.
