What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sildenafil/apixabanDrug

    After arrival to the emergency department, a series of surveys to determine the risk of death from pulmonary embolism are carried out. Then angiography, tensiometry of SBCC, catheter thrombus fragmentation are scheduled. Then puncture of the right jugular vein is performed. PigTail catheter is inserted via guidewire into the pulmonary artery . Angiography of the pulmonary arteries is performed. Miller index is calculated. Catheter thrombus fragmentation is performed by a PigTail catheter. RV, RA pressures are measured. In the ICU heparin is prescribed (of 1000 units per hour) under the control of PTT (50-75s). The next day patients are randomizaed to assign them into 2 groups. Dual drug therapy is going to be administered to this group (experimental): sildenafil 30mg 3p \ g + 10 mg apixaban 2p \ d for 14 days. On the 7th day MSCT angiography of the pulmonary aretry with contrast and echocardiogram are performed. On the 14th day the controlechocardiogram is performed .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Sildenafil/apixaban and apixaban in people with Pulmonary Embolism and Intermediate-high Risk, run by Meshalkin Research Institute of Pathology of Circulation at 1 site in Russia.

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 26 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Nov 2016. 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 Russia. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Andrey Karpenko, MD/PhD (a_karpenko@meshalkin.ru), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

MSCT RV \ LV Index (time frame: 7th day). 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 1 Nov 2016.
