---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
NCT00035178 ↗ | Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics of Argatroban Injection in End-Stage Renal Disease Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis | Completed | Texas Biotechnology Corporation | Phase 4 | 2002-05-01 | The primary goals of this investigation are to provide guidance on how to dose Argatroban in patients undergoing hemodialysis and to assess the safety and tolerability of Argatroban in hemodialysis patients. The secondary goal of the study will be to assess the adequacy of anticoagulation during hemodialysis. |
NCT00039858 ↗ | Evaluation of Argatroban Injection in Pediatric Patients Requiring Anticoagulant Alternatives to Heparin | Completed | GlaxoSmithKline | Phase 4 | 2003-09-01 | The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safe and effective dose of Argatroban for prophylaxis and/or treatment of thrombosis in pediatric patients with current or previous diagnosis of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) and thrombosis syndrome (HITTS), or who in the opinion of the investigator require alternative anticoagulation due to an underlying condition. |
NCT00039858 ↗ | Evaluation of Argatroban Injection in Pediatric Patients Requiring Anticoagulant Alternatives to Heparin | Completed | Encysive Pharmaceuticals | Phase 4 | 2003-09-01 | The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safe and effective dose of Argatroban for prophylaxis and/or treatment of thrombosis in pediatric patients with current or previous diagnosis of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) and thrombosis syndrome (HITTS), or who in the opinion of the investigator require alternative anticoagulation due to an underlying condition. |
NCT00113997 ↗ | Safety and Dosing Evaluation of REG1 Anticoagulation System | Completed | National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) | Phase 1 | 2005-06-01 | This 1-week study will test the safety and dosing of an anticoagulation system called REG1 that is designed to improve control of "blood thinning." Patients with heart attack and other conditions require treatment with an anticoagulant (blood thinner) to prevent the formation of blood clots. However, anticoagulation therapy can increase the risk of bleeding. The REG1 system is designed to minimize this risk. One part of the system stops the activity of factor IX (a protein that helps blood clot) while the other part of the system (the antidote) inactivates the drug and stops the thinning process. This study will examine in normal healthy subjects how the REG1 system works in the body and how it leaves the body. Healthy normal volunteers between 12 and 65 years of age who weigh 50-120 kilograms (110-264 pounds) and have no history of bleeding problems or significant bleeding may be eligible for this study. Candidates are screened with a medical history, physical examination, and blood tests. Participants must avoid foods that may alter the blood's clotting ability and must not take any medications the week of the study. They undergo the following tests and procedures: Day 1 Subjects are admitted to the NIH Clinical Center for an overnight stay. Two catheters (plastic tubes) are placed in the subject's arm veins, one for drawing blood samples and the other for injecting one of the following: REG1 drug, REG1 antidote, REG1 drug and antidote, or placebo. Two injections of study medication are given, spaced 3 hours apart, each over a 1-minute period. After each injection, blood is collected at specific times to measure levels of the drug or antidote in the body and the blood's ability to clot. Subjects also provide a 24-hour urine collection and stool sample. Day 2 A blood sample is drawn 24 hours after the drug or antidote injection from the previous day. If the blood test result is normal, subjects are discharged home with instructions to follow. They return to the Clinical Center at 36 hours and 48 hours for additional blood samples. Days 3 and 7 A blood sample is collected at the end of day 3 and day 7. Urine and stool samples are also collected. |
NCT00153946 ↗ | Edaravone and Argatroban Stroke Therapy Study for Acute Ischemic Stroke | Completed | Japan Cardiovascular Research Foundation | Phase 4 | 2004-08-01 | Edaravone, a free radical scavenger, is a novel neuroprotective agent, and argatroban is a selective thrombin inhibitor. Both the drugs were approved by the Japanese Government, and have frequently been used for the treatment of acute brain infarction in Japan. The effect of combination therapy of these drugs, however, has not yet been elucidated. This study will test the safety and efficacy of the combination therapy with these agents in patients with acute non-cardioembolic and non-lacunar ischemic stroke. |
NCT00153946 ↗ | Edaravone and Argatroban Stroke Therapy Study for Acute Ischemic Stroke | Completed | Combination Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke Study Group | Phase 4 | 2004-08-01 | Edaravone, a free radical scavenger, is a novel neuroprotective agent, and argatroban is a selective thrombin inhibitor. Both the drugs were approved by the Japanese Government, and have frequently been used for the treatment of acute brain infarction in Japan. The effect of combination therapy of these drugs, however, has not yet been elucidated. This study will test the safety and efficacy of the combination therapy with these agents in patients with acute non-cardioembolic and non-lacunar ischemic stroke. |
NCT00198588 ↗ | Efficacy and Safety Study of Argatroban to Treat Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia | Completed | Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation | Phase 3 | 2005-06-01 | The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of argatroban in the patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT)/ HIT and thrombosis syndrome (HITTS). This multi-center trial covers mainly the patients with cardiovascular diseases. Subjects are included in the trial when they are clinically diagnosed of HIT/HITTS. Initial dose of argatroban is 0.7μg/kg/min, which is about one-third of the approved dose in the US. The reason of the lower initial dose is that the approved dose of argatroban in Japan (for the treatment of ischemic stroke) is about 0.7μg/kg/min and safety of higher doses of the drug are not confirmed. A sub-study of pharmacokinetics is simultaneously conducted to reveal the relationship among the dose, aPTT, and blood drug concentration. |
