Intra-arterial Microplasmin Administration in Patients With Acute Peripheral Arterial Occlusion

April 4, 2014 updated by: ThromboGenics

An Open-label, Ascending-dose, Clinical Trial of Intra-arterial Microplasmin Administration in Patients With Acute Peripheral Arterial Occlusion

The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of microplasmin administration in patients with acute peripheral arterial occlusion.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This clinical trial is designed as an open-label, dose-escalating, single-centre trial of weight-adjusted dose regimens of microplasmin administered intra-arterially as an infusion to patients with acute peripheral arterial occlusion. Patients who meet all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be administered study drug for up to 4 hours. Different dose regimens will be evaluated in an ascending-dose fashion; an infusion will be administered for up to 4 hours.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients presenting within 14 days of onset of acute thrombotic or embolic arterial occlusion of a lower extremity (native vessel or bypass graft).
  • Complete occlusion of infrarenal vessel or bypass graft, as determined by angiography.
  • Lower extremity ischemia graded as SVS/ISCS (Society of Vascular Surgery/ International Society for Cardiovascular Surgery) class I or II (a or b).
  • Negative urine pregnancy test (pregnancy test only required for females of child-bearing potential not using an accepted method of contraception).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Profound ischemia with permanent motor paresis or sensory loss (or ischemic process deemed irreversible, i.e. class III).
  • Occlusion not penetrable by the infusion guide wire.
  • Known or suspected allergy to contrast agents or heparin sodium.
  • Active bleeding or known hemorrhagic diathesis.
  • Stroke in the previous 6 months or transient ischemic attack in the previous 2 months.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: 1
An infusion of 0.45, 0.60 and 0.90 mg/kg/hr will be administered for up to 4 hours. Study drug will be administered intra-arterially (into the thrombotic occlusion).
An infusion of 0.45 mg/kg/hr in conjunction with distal protection device will be administered for up to 4 hours. Study drug will be administered intra-arterially (into the thrombotic occlusion).
An infusion of 20 or 40 mg (20 mg for the 15 cm treatment length device; 40 mg for the 30 cm treatment length device) over 10 minutes via the Trellis-8 Peripheral Infusion System catheter, in accordance with the Trellis-8 Instructions for Use. For occlusive lesions that are longer than the treatment length of the Trellis-8 device, a repeat infusion of the same dose and duration may be administered.
EXPERIMENTAL: 2
An infusion of 0.45, 0.60 and 0.90 mg/kg/hr will be administered for up to 4 hours. Study drug will be administered intra-arterially (into the thrombotic occlusion).

An infusion of 20 or 40 mg (20 mg for the 15 cm treatment length device; 40 mg for the 30 cm treatment length device) over 10 minutes via the Trellis-8 Peripheral Infusion System catheter, in accordance with the Trellis-8 Instructions for Use. For occlusive lesions that are longer than the treatment length of the Trellis-8 device, a repeat infusion of the same dose and duration may be administered.
EXPERIMENTAL: 3
