What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and Tolerability

    To assess the safety and tolerability of AP214 compared to placebo; by analysis of number and nature of Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), changes in laboratory parameters and overall health status

    Measured: 90 days

  2. Efficacy

    To assess the effect of AP214 versus placebo on the maximal postoperative change in absolute values of Serum Creatinine (SCr) compared to baseline within the first 7 days after surgery or until discharge from hospital, whichever comes first

    Measured: 7 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Efficacy

    To assess the ability of AP214 compared to placebo to reduce postoperative changes in SCr, and eGFR at day 28, 60 and Day 90 and GFR at Day 90 compared to baseline

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AP214 in people with Cardiac Surgery and Coronary Artery Bypass, run by Action Pharma A/S at 1 site in Denmark.

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 19 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 15 Mar 2012. 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 Denmark. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 and Tolerability (time frame: 90 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Mar 2012.
