Phase 3 Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Human Plasma Derived Antithrombin (Atenativ) in Heparin-resistant Patients Scheduled to Undergo Cardiac Surgery Necessitating Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two different doses of Atenativ, versus placebo, in restoring heparin responsiveness in adult patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) for cardiac surgery.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Low-dose Atenativ
|
Drug: Human plasma derived antithrombin
A solvent/detergent and heat-treated antithrombin concentrate derived from human plasma
|
Experimental: High-dose Atenativ
|
Drug: Human plasma derived antithrombin
A solvent/detergent and heat-treated antithrombin concentrate derived from human plasma
|
Placebo Comparator: Placebo Patients will receive a saline bolus dose |
Drug: Placebo
Half of the patients in the placebo group will be randomised to receive a volume of placebo corresponding to the low dose of Atenativ and the other half to receive a volume of placebo corresponding to a high dose of Atenativ

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Restoring heparin responsiveness [IMP infusion and initiation of CPB]
The percentage of patients in each group in whom no further therapy containing antithrombin (i.e. frozen plasma or other antithrombin concentrates) is needed for restoring pre-CPB heparin responsiveness after administration of Atenativ or placebo
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Amounts of further therapy for restoring heparin responsiveness [IMP infusion and initiation of CPB]
The comparison between the amounts of further therapy containing antithrombin (i.e., FP or antithrombin concentrates) needed for restoring pre-CPB heparin responsiveness, after administration of Atenativ or placebo
- Change in ACT values [Within 5 minutes following intravenous administration of 500 U/kg UFH and between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion]
The comparison between the change in ACT values following infusion of each of the Atenativ doses and placebo
- Change in antithrombin plasma levels [Within 10 minutes before IMP infusion and between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion]
The comparison between the change in antithrombin plasma levels following infusion of each of the Atenativ doses and placebo
- Change in heparin usage [From initiation of CBP to the end of surgery]
The comparison between heparin usage following the injection of each of the Atenativ doses and injection of placebo
- Maintaining heparin responsiveness [From initiation of CBP to the end of surgery]
For subjects in whom heparin responsiveness is restored without the need for further pre-CPB therapy, the percentage of patients in each group who do not require further therapy containing antithrombin (i.e., FP or antithrombin concentrates) to maintain heparin responsiveness until the end of surgery
- Amounts of further therapy for maintaining heparin responsiveness [From initiation of CBP to end of surgery]
The comparison between the amounts of further therapy containing antithrombin (i.e., FP or antithrombin concentrates) needed for maintaining heparin responsiveness from the initiation of CPB until the end of surgery, for subjects in whom heparin responsiveness is restored without the need for further pre-CPB therapy
- Adverse events [Up to 28 days (+ 2 days) following therapy administration]
Incidence of adverse events in all three cohorts
- Survival status [28 days (+ 2 days) following administration of IMP]
Number of patients surviving in all three cohorts
- Red Blood Cell count [Within 10 minutes before IMP infusion, between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion, within 10 minutes after weaning from CPB, at the end of surgery, and at 24 hours after infusion]
Standard haematological parameter
- White Blood Cell count [Within 10 minutes before IMP infusion, between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion, within 10 minutes after weaning from CPB, at the end of surgery, and at 24 hours after infusion]
Standard haematological parameter
- Haemoglobin levels [Within 10 minutes before IMP infusion, between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion, within 10 minutes after weaning from CPB, at the end of surgery, and at 24 hours after infusion]
Standard haematological parameter
- Haematocrit [Within 10 minutes before IMP infusion, between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion, within 10 minutes after weaning from CPB, at the end of surgery, and at 24 hours after infusion]
Standard haematological parameter
- Platelet count [Within 10 minutes before IMP infusion, between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion, within 10 minutes after weaning from CPB, at the end of surgery, and at 24 hours after infusion]
Standard haematological parameter
