Based on trial findings, authors do not advise the use of LMWH in this population or screening for inherited thrombophilia in women with recurrent pregnancy loss.

An international, open-label RCT "showed no significant difference in livebirth rates in women with recurrent pregnancy loss and confirmed inherited thrombophilia after treatment with LMWH treatment when compared with standard care alone", write authors.

New study: Many women with recurrent miscarriage are tested for inherited thrombophilia. If confirmed positive, daily subcutaneous low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) is given.
This is despite an absence of evidence that such treatment is beneficial 🧵 hubs.li/Q01S2WvV0

Alongside decreasing the treatment burden and associated costs, "the results also mean that researchers can focus research on other solutions for recurrent pregnancy loss after decades of investigating anticoagulants", say @s_quenby and colleagues.

Always great to get an answer even if it’s negative treatment outcome. @uhbtrust recruited a record number of patients into the trial - big thanks to all the patients who participated, you have made an impact on thousands of women 👏 @s_quenby

📣Publication alert: finally published in @TheLancet , the ALIFE2 trial. So thankful to all women who participated and all colleagues who joined the study. LMWH does NOT improve live birth in women with #thrombophilia and #recurrent miscarriage.

Happy news: we have seen a boost in randomizations in the @ALIFE2trial. Women with recurrent #miscarriage and #thrombophilia are allocated to #LMWH or standard of care. Lots of new #pregnancies and hope after lockdown 🥰 alife2study.org @INVENT_VTE
