Dialysis of Sugammadex in Participants With Severe Renal Impairment (Study 19.4.333) (P05773)

A Single Center, Open-Label Trial in Subjects With Severe Renal Impairment Evaluating the Dialysability of the Sugammadex-Rocuronium Complex

The clinical trial objectives were to evaluate the dialysability of the sugammadex-rocuronium complex; it's safety and efficacy in participants with severe renal impairment.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Neuromuscular Blockade
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: sugammadex; Drug: Rocuronium

Detailed Description

The current trial was designed to evaluate the dialysability of the sugammadex-rocuronium complex in participants with severe renal impairment. A dose of 4.0 mg/kg sugammadex was administered 15 minutes after administration of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium. Blood and dialysate samples were collected before, during and after hemodialysis/filtration, for calculation of clearance of sugammadex-rocuronium complex and assessment of rebound.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Clearance of Sugammadex by Dialysis as Measured by the Reduction Ratio (RR)	Starting on Day 1 dialysis was performed on four separate occasions using a Fresenius 40008H hemodialyzer, with a hemodiafilter standard helixone membrane FX 600. Dialysate samples were collected before, and after hemodialysis, with concentrations of sugammadex determined using a liquid chromatographic assay with mass spectrometric detection. The clearance of sugammadex at each dialysis session was calculated by measuring the ratio of plasma concentration at the end of dialysis, average duration of 6 hours, compared with that immediately before the start of dialysis, called the RR.	Up to day 7
Clearance of Rocuronium by Dialysis as Measured by the Reduction Ratio (RR)	Starting on Day 1 dialysis was performed on four separate occasions using a Fresenius 40008H hemodialyzer, with a hemodiafilter standard helixone membrane FX 600. Dialysate samples were collected before, and after hemodialysis, with concentrations of rocuronium determined using a liquid chromatographic assay with mass spectrometric detection. The clearance of rocuronium at each dialysis session was calculated by measuring the ratio of plasma concentration at the end of dialysis, average duration of 6 hours, compared with that immediately before the start of dialysis, called the RR.	Up to Day 7
Rate of Clearance of Sugammadex From Blood	Starting on Day 1 dialysis was performed on four separate occasions using a Fresenius 40008H hemodialyzer, with a hemodiafilter standard helixone membrane FX 600. Blood samples were collected from ports in the arterial and venous tubing of the dialyzer before, during and after an average of 6 hours of hemodialysis. The concentrations of sugammadex were determined using a liquid chromatographic assay with mass spectrometric detection. The clearance rate from blood at each dialysis session was assessed by averaging across all available collection time points.	Up to day 7

Rate of Clearance of Sugammadex From Dialysate	Starting on Day 1 dialysis was performed on four separate occasions using a Fresenius 40008H hemodialyzer, with a hemodiafilter standard helixone membrane FX 600. Dialysate samples were collected from a port in the outflow of the dialyzer before, during and after an average of 6 hours of hemodialysis. The concentrations of sugammadex were determined using a liquid chromatographic assay with mass spectrometric detection. The clearance rate from dialysate at each dialysis session was assessed by averaging across all available collection time points.The data from the fourth dialysis are not presented as they were not calculable.
