NCT00421148

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is:

  • to explore the dose-response relation of sugammadex (Org 25969, MK-8616, SCH 900616) given as a reversal agent at reappearance of T2 after 0.6 mg.kg-1 rocuronium in pediatric and adult participants
  • to explore the pharmacokinetics (PK) of sugammadex in pediatric and adult participants, and to evaluate the safety of sugammadex in pediatric and adult participants.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time From Start of Administration of Study Treatment (Sugammadex or Placebo) to Recovery T4/T1 Ratio to 0.9

    Neuromuscular functioning was monitored by applying repetitive Train-Of-Four (TOF) electrical stimulations to the ulnar nerve every 15 seconds \& assessing twitch response at the adductor pollicis muscle. T1 \& T4 refer to the magnitudes (heights) of the first \& fourth twitches, respectively, after TOF nerve stimulation. The T4/T1 Ratio (expressed as a decimal of up to 1.0) indicates the extent of recovery from neuromuscular blockade (NMB). In this study, twitch responses were recorded until the T4/T1 Ratio reached ≥0.9, the minimum acceptable ratio that indicated recovery from NMB. A faster time to recovery of the T4/T1 Ratio to 0.9 indicates a faster recovery from NMB.

    From start of sugammadex or palcebo administration to recovery of T4/T1 ratio to 0.9 (ranging from ~0.5 minutes to ~30 minutes from sugammadex or placebo administration)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Time From Start of Administration of Study Treatment (Sugammadex or Placebo) to Recovery T4/T1 Ratio to 0.7

    From start of sugammadex or placebo administration to recovery of T4/T1 ratio to 0.7 (ranging from ~0.4 minutes to ~20 minutes from sugammadex or placebo administration)

  • Time From Start of Administration of Study Treatment (Sugammadex or Placebo) to Recovery T4/T1 Ratio to 0.8

    From start of sugammadex or placebo administration to recovery of T4/T1 ratio to 0.8 (ranging from ~0.5 minutes to ~25 minutes from sugammadex or placebo administration)

Study Arms (5)

Sugammadex 0.5 mg/kg

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants are to receive an intravenous (IV) single bolus dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium. At reappearance of T2, an IV single bolus dose of 0.5 mg/kg sugammadex is to be given.

Drug: Sugammadex 0.5 mg/kgDrug: Rocuronium bromide

Sugammadex 1 mg/kg

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants are to receive an IV single bolus dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium. At reappearance of T2, an IV single bolus dose of 1 mg/kg sugammadex is to be given.

Drug: Sugammadex 1 mg/kgDrug: Rocuronium bromide

Sugammadex 2 mg/kg

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants are to receive an IV single bolus dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium. At reappearance of T2, an IV single bolus dose of 2 mg/kg sugammadex is to be given.

Drug: Sugammadex 2 mg/kgDrug: Rocuronium bromide

Sugammadex 4 mg/kg

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants are to receive an IV single bolus dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium. At reappearance of T2, an IV single bolus dose of 4 mg/kg sugammadex is to be given.

Drug: Sugammadex 4 mg/kgDrug: Rocuronium bromide

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants are to receive an IV single bolus dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium. At reappearance of T2, an IV single 3-mL bolus dose of placebo (sodium chloride 0.9% solution) is to be given.

Drug: PlaceboDrug: Rocuronium bromide
