About this study

Official title: Heparin Free Hemodialysis for Patients With Bleeding High Risk in ICU. Randomized Study: Heparin Free Dialysis With Intermittent Saline Flushes Versus Heparin Free Dialysis With Nephral 400ST (AN69ST, Hospal, France)

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and operative efficacy of intermittent hemodialysis without anticoagulation with saline flushes or Nephral 400ST in patients at high risk of bleeding

Read the detailed description

Hemodialysis in patients who are at high risk of bleeding complications represents a challenge of balancing the needs for establishment of an adequately functioning extracorporeal circuit for dialytic therapy with the requirement of not exacerbating existing bleeding or precipitating bleeding in predisposed subjects.

Several methods of nonheparin dialysis have been used. The method most commonly used to effect such treatment is "saline flushing": saline boluses are delivred at frequent intervals. This method is far from optimal for several reasons, including failure to maintain a patent circuit in significant proportion of patients, an added logistic burden on dialysis nurses. An alternative method of avoiding systemic heparinization is priming the dialysis membrane with heparin before hemodialysis. The method is based on fact that AN69ST (Nephral 400ST , Hospal, France) dialysis membrane have a high affinity for binding heparin, and that the bound heparin exerts a localized antithrombotic effect without systemic spillover.

Comparison: heparin free hemodialysis with saline flushes compared heparin free hemodialysis with Nephral 400ST.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Early stop dialysis treatment for rapid and persistent elevations in venous extracorporeal pressure secondary to extracorporeal thrombosis.

    Measured: at the end of the dialysis treatement

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Blood lost associated with extracorporeal thrombosis or active bleeding

    Measured: At the end of the dialysis treatment

  2. Necessary time of nurse's work

    Measured: During the dialysis treatment

  3. Weight lost patients during dialysis treatment

    Measured: At the end of dialysis treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing AN69 ST in people with Kidney Failure and Critically Ill, run by Centre Hospitalier Départemental at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Oct 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Laurent Martin-Lefèvre, MD (33(0)251446088, laurent.martin-lefevre@chd-vendee.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Early stop dialysis treatment for rapid and persistent elevations in venous extracorporeal pressure secondary to extracorporeal thrombosis. (time frame: at the end of the dialysis treatement). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Oct 2007.
