What is being measured

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

  1. Patients Alive on Day 28, Having Had an Improvement in the DIC Score (Overt or Non-overt) by at Least 2 Points Between Baseline and Day 6 and Having Had no Worsening of the SOFA Score Between Baseline and Day 6.

    Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC) ranges from 0 to 8 points, the higher the score the worse coagulation/outcome.

    Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) is a composite score of scores for the respiratory, cardiovascular, hepatic, coagulation, renal and neurological systems. Each system is scored from 0 to 4 with a higher score given for worse organ function. The scores are then added together to give a total range from 0 to 24 with a higher score representing a worse outcome.

    Measured: Day 28

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Mortality at Day 28

    Measured: Day 28

  2. Mortality at Day 90

    Measured: Day 90

  3. Change From Baseline to Day 6 in SOFA Score Among Survivors on Day 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Antithrombin alfa (INN name) in people with Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation, run by LEO Pharma.

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 0 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 31 Aug 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Patients Alive on Day 28, Having Had an Improvement in the DIC Score (Overt or Non-overt) by at Least 2 Points Between Baseline and Day 6 and Having Had no Worsening of the SOFA Score Between Baseline and Day 6. (time frame: Day 28). 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 7 Mar 2025.
