About this study

Official title: A Multi-Center,Randomized,Double-Blind,Placebo-Controlled,Dose Finding Pilot Study, to Evaluate Safety/Feasibility of HBOC-201 in Elective Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization of Subjects With Acute Coronary Syndromes

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of a novel oxygen carrying solution, HBOC-201, in the setting of PCI for Acute Coronary Syndromes from randomization til hospital discharge.

Read the detailed description

Acute coronary syndromes are due to an acute or subacute primary reduction of myocardial oxygen supply provoked by disruption of an atherosclerotic plaque associated with inflammation, thrombosis, vasoconstriction and microembolization. Occlusive thrombosis superimposed on a ruptured atheroma in an epicardial coronary artery is firmly established as the immediate cause of an acute ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). Rapid restoration of blood flow (oxygen supply) to jeopardized myocardium limits necrosis and reduces mortality. This can be accomplished medically with a thrombolytic agent, or mechanically, with so-called primary balloon angioplasty or stenting. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has become the preferred therapy for STEMI in most developed countries.

HBOC-201 is a solution belonging to a new class of biologic oxygen therapeutics, hemoglobin based oxygen carriers. HBOC-201 is a crosslinked and glutaraldehyde-polymerized hemoglobin (Hb) extracted from isolated bovine red blood cells. On a gram-for-gram basis, HBOC-201 was calculated to be approximately three times more potent than stored fresh red blood cell hemoglobin at restoring baseline tissue oxygenation following severe acute anemia. Evaluation of this Hemoglobin Based Oxygen Carrier has been undertaken in 57 preclinical studies and 21 human clinical trials. The compound is under review by the US FDA and has been approved in the Republic of South Africa. However, HBOC-201 has not yet been evaluated in the setting of this disease (narrowing of a coronary artery).

Biopure will be studying the safety and feasibility of HBOC-201 in patients with typical symptoms of Unstable Angina or Non ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction eligible to undergo invasive revascularization through a PCI procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization, Hemoglobin-Based Oxygen Carrier-201 (HBOC-201) and Voluven in people with Angina Pectoris and Unstable Angina, run by Biopure Corporation at 6 sites in 3 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 18 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Netherlands, Belgium, Germany. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety. The study lists 13 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00317512, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 May 2008.
