NCT03519854

Brief Summary

This study investigates the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of sugammadex (Org 25969; MK-8616) when administered for the reversal of neuromuscular blockade in male participants receiving surgery, classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class 1 (otherwise normal, healthy participant) to class 2 (participant with mild systemic disease). The primary objective of this study is to explore the dose-response relation of sugammadex given as a reversal agent at 3, 5, or 15 minutes following administration of 0.6 mg/kg Esmeron®.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean Time From Start of Study Treatment Administration to Recovery of the T4/T1 Ratio to 0.9

    Mean time from start of study treatment administration to recovery of participant T4/T1 ratio to 0.9 was assessed through the repeated application (every 15 seconds) of an electrical stimulation protocol. Specifically, 4 electrical stimulations were applied to the ulnar nerve and the magnitude of the twitch response of the adductor pollicis muscle (i.e. thumb twitch response) was assessed. With T4 and T1 referring to the respective magnitude of the fourth and first thumb twitch during nerve stimulation, the T4/T1 ratio indicates the current degree of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) present in the participant as a decimal from 0 (loss of T4 twitch) to 1 (no NMB). Further, reduced recovery time of the T4/T1 ratio to 0.9 indicates faster recovery from NMB. Summary data, originally presented in the format of units "minutes:seconds" (mm:ss), was reformatted to be presented in the single unit of "minutes" (min).

    Up to 70 minutes following administration of study treatment

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Mean Heart Rate at Baseline

    Up to 45 minutes prior to study treatment administration

  • Mean Heart Rate at 2 Minutes Following Administration of Study Treatment

    2 minutes following administration of study treatment

  • Mean Heart Rate at 30 Minutes Following Administration of Study Treatment

    30 minutes following administration of study treatment

  • Mean Corrected QT Interval (QTc) at Baseline

    Up to 45 minutes prior to study treatment administration

  • Mean Corrected QT Interval (QTc) at 2 Minutes Following Administration of Study Treatment

    2 minutes following administration of study treatment

  • +2 more secondary outcomes
