About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Single- Center, Phase IV, Interventional, Single Arm Trial for the Evaluation of Subcutaneous Recombinant Hirudin 15 mg (RB Variant) in Prophylaxis of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Post Major Orthopedic Operations

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of r-Hirudin RB variant 15 mg in DVT prophylaxis post major orthopedic operations

Read the detailed description

Prospective, Single arm, single-center

Phase IV

100 Patients will be treated with r-Hirudin (Thrombexx) for a total of 15 days beginning with 15 mg BID s.c starting 6 hours after surgery or upon adequate hemostasis and continued until end of study.

Patients undergoing major orthopedic operations

For Events of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) within 15 days post-op.) All of the patients underwent Routine bilateral compression Doppler.

For Clinical PE (Pulmonary Embolism) Events from Day of surgery and During Hospitalization period or end of study

Clinical PE events PE (Pulmonary Embolism) events were confirmed by spiral CT.

For follow up:

APTT should be done before the first dose then after 4 \& 8 hours of the first dose, then on days 1,8,15 post operatively.

Enrolment period: 3 months duration Follow-up duration: Follow-up per patient will be for a period of 15 days

Primary endpoint:

  • Primary end points included new onset symptomatic thrombosis requiring medical or surgical intervention or death due to thrombosis defined as fatal PE, ischemic stroke, mesenteric thrombosis, or myocardial infarction

Secondary endpoint:

  • The Secondary end point of major bleeding is defined as clinically evident hemorrhage associated with a hemoglobin decrease ≥ 2 g/dL that leads to a transfusion of ≥2 units of whole blood or packed red cells outside of the perioperative period (time from the start of the surgery or procedure and up to 12 hours after), or hemorrhage that is intracranial, retroperitoneal, or into a prosthetic joint.
  • Recording serious adverse events (SAE)/ adverse events (AE) during the study duration.

What is being measured

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

  1. new onset symptomatic thrombosis

    Primary end points included new onset symptomatic thrombosis requiring medical or surgical intervention or death due to thrombosis defined as fatal PE, ischemic stroke, mesenteric thrombosis, or myocardial infarction.

    Measured: up to 15 days post operative

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Major bleeding

    The Secondary end point of major bleeding is defined as clinically evident hemorrhage associated with ahemoglobin decrease ≥ 2 g/dL that leads to a transfusion of ≥2 units of whole blood or packed red cells outside of the perioperative period

    Measured: up to 12 hours after surgery

  2. Adverse events

    Recording serious adverse events (SAE)/ adverse events (AE) during the study duration.

    Measured: up to 15 days post operative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing r-Hirudin in people with Prophylaxis of Deep Vein Thrombosis, run by MinaPharm Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in Egypt.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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 6 May 2023. 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Ayman Dr Soliman, PhD (+20 100 1796219, ssssoliman@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

new onset symptomatic thrombosis (time frame: up to 15 days post operative). 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 6 May 2023.
