What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of patients who did not require rescue administration of propofol to achieve and maintain Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (OAA/S) Score ≤4 during the study drug administration

    Measured: Pre-dose, every 5 ± 2 minutes during study drug infusion and every 15 ± 2 minutes until 1 hour after study drug infusion. Before additional administration of sedative.

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Administration frequency and dosage of propofol required to achieve and maintain OAA/S score ≤4 during the study drug administration

    If the OAA/S score is 5, 0.2 mg/kg of propofol as a sedative is administered intravenously by slow "IV push" and the administration is to be repeated until the target level of sedation (OAA/S score ≤4) is achieved.

    Measured: After the start of study drug (20 ± 2 minutes), if the OAA/S score is 5.

  2. Time to first rescue administration of propofol

    Measured: ≥15 minutes after the start of study drug infusion.

  3. Incidence of patients who did not require rescue administration of fentanyl during the study drug administration

    Measured: After the surgery start, the administration of fentanyl is permissible as required to treat pain. In case of repeated dose, the dosing interval should be ≥15 minutes.

  4. Administration frequency and dosage of fentanyl required during the study drug administration

    Measured: After the surgery start, the administration of fentanyl is permissible as required to treat pain. In case of repeated dose, the dosing interval should be ≥15 minutes.

  5. Percentage of time spent OAA/S Score ≤4 during the study drug infusion

    Measured: Pre-dose, every 5 ± 2 minutes during study drug infusion and every 15 ± 2 minutes until 1 hour after study drug infusion. Before additional administration of sedative.

  6. Percentage of time spent OAA/S Score 3 to 4 during the study drug infusion

    Measured: Pre-dose, every 5 ± 2 minutes during study drug infusion and every 15 ± 2 minutes until 1 hour after study drug infusion. Before additional administration of sedative.

  7. Time to attain an Aldrete score ≥9 following discontinuation of the study drug infusion

    Measured: Every 15 ± 2 minutes until the total score value becomes ≥9.

  8. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score evaluation by Investigator or sub-investigator (ease of maintaining sedation level, hemodynamic stability, respiratory stability, subject's cooperativeness)

    Measured: Within 24 hours after completion of the study drug administration

  9. Score evaluation of satisfaction and anxiety of the subject

    Measured: Within 24 hours after completion of the study drug administration (as much as possible)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing DA-9501 in people with Sedation, run by Hospira, now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer at 18 sites in Japan.

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 13 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 24 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Japan. 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 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?

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?

Incidence of patients who did not require rescue administration of propofol to achieve and maintain Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (OAA/S) Score ≤4 during the study drug administration (time frame: Pre-dose, every 5 ± 2 minutes during study drug infusion and every 15 ± 2 minutes until 1 hour after study drug infusion. Before additional administration of sedative.). 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 NCT01438931, 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 24 Jul 2015.
