About this study

Official title: Clinical Effect of Atenativ Treatment on Uterine Blood Flow and the Amount of Atenativ Needed to Maintain a Normal Antithrombin Lvels During Two Weeks in Early and Severe Preeclampsia

The study will be an open controlled pilot study of 6 patients with early-onset severe preeclampsia. Patients will receive Atenativ in addition to conventional therapy The patients will be followed up within the study until three days after delivery. Laboratory analyses and uterine and umbiliacal blood flow will be determined.

Read the detailed description

The study will be an open controlled pilot study of 6 patients with early-onset severe preeclampsia. Patients will receive Atenativ in addition to conventional therapy The patients will be followed up within the study until three days after delivery. In addition to conventional therapy, i.v. administration of Atenativ will be given in a dosage aimed to raise the plasma level of AT initially to 120% (1.2 kIU/L) The goal is to achieve and maintain plasma activity of about 100% during two weeks. The dose of Atenativ is based on the actual plasma level of AT measured 2 hours before the dose. During the first two days of treatment plasma samples will be drawn for the measurement of AT activity twice a day, once before and 12 hours after infusion in order to monitor the dosage. Thereafter and until study discontinuation AT will be measured once a day. The treatment will continue for two weeks if plasma AT III is below 100% (1.0 kIU/L).Uterine blood flow is measured before, during and after the AT infusion. Demographic data, medical history and other background data (age, weight, height, gestational week, smoker or not, gravidity, parity, previous hypertension, previous medication etc) will be recorded in order to ensure that the inclusion criteria are met and to verify patient identity and inclusion status. The week of gestation when the patient is included in the study as well as the week of gestation at delivery is recorded.

The type of delivery (vaginal or caesarean section as well as planned or acute) will also be recorded.. General haemostatic parameters are to be analyzed before start of treatment and then every day during treatment and thereafter at least twice a week. Special haemostatic parameters are Placental growth factor, S-Flt-1, VEGF and Syndecan-1. They will be sampled before start of treatment and during treatment once a week. The samples will be collected and frozen and not analyzed before the termination of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Atenativ in people with Antithrombin III Deficiency, run by Vastra Gotaland Region at 1 site in Sweden.

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 9 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 2017. 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 Sweden. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Blood flow in uterin and umbilical artery (time frame: up to day 14). 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 NCT02278575, which also lists 9 linked publications.

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 26 Sep 2017.
