Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Restoring heparin responsiveness
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, and for maintaining it during CPB
During surgery (from the time of the first surgical incision to the time at which the final suture or staple is placed)
Secondary Outcomes (20)
Amounts of further therapy for restoring heparin responsiveness
During surgery (from the time of the first surgical incision to the time at which the final suture or staple is placed)
Change in activated clotting time (ACT) values
Within 5 minutes following intravenous administration of 500 U/kg unfractionated heparin (UFH) and between 2-10 minutes after IMP infusion
Change in antithrombin plasma levels
Within 10 minutes before IMP infusion and between 2 and 10 minutes after IMP infusion, within 10 minutes after the end of CPB, at the end of surgery, and at 24 hours after the start of IMP infusion
Change in heparin usage
From end of IMP infusion to the end of surgery
FP unit use
From the start of IMP infusion until 24 hours following IMP infusion, and until discharge or 7 days after surgery, whichever comes first
- +15 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (3)
Low-dose Atenativ
EXPERIMENTALPatients will receive a single bolus of 30 international units (IU)/kg body weight (BW) Atenativ.
High-dose Atenativ
EXPERIMENTALPatients will receive a single bolus of 60 international units (IU)/kg body weight (BW) Atenativ.
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORPatients will receive a saline bolus dose
Interventions
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
A solvent/detergent and heat-treated antithrombin concentrate derived from human plasma
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Planned cardiac surgery with CPB
- Heparin-resistant patients (pre-CPB Hemochron ACT less than 480 s in the measurement taken between 2-5 minutes following intravenous administration of 500 U/kg UFH)
- Patients between 18 and 85 years of age, inclusive
- Freely given written or electronic informed consent
- In female patients of childbearing potential, a pre-existing negative pregnancy test within 14 days prior to surgery
You may not qualify if:
- Receiving, or have received within the timeframes specified, one or more of the following medications prior to the start of surgery:
- vitamin K antagonists (within 3 days)
- direct oral anticoagulants (within 2 days)
- thienopyridines (ticlopidine within 14 days, prasugrel within 7 days, or clopidogrel within 5 days), unless platelet function is satisfactory according to local standard of care assessment
- ticagrelor (within 5 days), unless platelet function is satisfactory according to local standard of care assessment
- glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonist (within 24 hours)
- Pre-existing coagulopathy, a history of bleeding problems, or a laboratory-diagnosed bleeding disorder (e.g., von Willebrand disease, platelet disorder)
- Renal insufficiency, defined as serum creatinine level \>2.0 mg/dL
- Thrombocytosis, defined as platelet count \>400,000 per μL
- Known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to antithrombin or any of the excipients in Atenativ, i.e., human albumin, sodium chloride, acetyl tryptophan, caprylic acid
- History of anaphylactic reaction(s) to blood or blood components
- Refusal to receive transfusion of blood or blood-derived products
- Current participation in another interventional clinical trial or previous participation in the current trial
- Treatment with any IMP within 30 days prior to screening visit
