About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Clevidipine in the Perioperative Treatment of Hypertension Assessing Safety Events (With Sodium Nitroprusside as Active Comparator) (ECLISPE-SNP)

The purpose of this study is to establish the safety of clevidipine in the treatment of perioperative hypertension. Approximately 250-500 patients with perioperative hypertension undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) or minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) surgery and/or valve replacement/repair procedures were anticipated to be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups: clevidipine or sodium nitroprusside.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective was to establish the safety of clevidipine in the treatment of perioperative hypertension, as assessed by comparing the incidences of death, stroke, MI and renal dysfunction in the clevidipine and sodium nitroprusside treatment groups from the initiation of study drug infusion through postoperative Day 30. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the efficacy of study drug, assessed by the blood pressure (BP) lowering effect and additional safety variables.

Study groups in NCT00093912
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
clevidipineExperimentalClevidipine (0.5 mg/mL in 20% lipid emulsion) was initiated after insertion of an arterial line upon the occurrence of perioperative hypertension, as determined by the investigator, and was administered intravenously (IV) at an initial infusion rate of 0.4 μg/kg/min (non weight-based equivalent is 2 mg/h). Clevidipine was titrated to blood pressure lowering effect by doubling increments approximately every 90 seconds up to a maximum infusion rate of 3.2 μg/kg/min (16 mg/h). Infusion rates above 3.2 μg/kg/min were permitted up to the maximum infusion rate of 8.0 μg/kg/min. Treatment was maintained as long as was deemed clinically necessary or until discharge from the ICU. Infusion rates between 4.4 and 8.0 μg/kg/min were to be administered for no more than 2 hours.
Receives: Drug: clevidipine
sodium nitroprussideActive comparatorSodium nitroprusside (SNP) was initiated after insertion of an arterial line upon the occurrence of perioperative hypertension, as determined by the investigator, and was administered intravenously as per institutional practice. Treatment was maintained as long as was deemed clinically necessary or until discharge from the ICU.
Receives: Drug: sodium nitroprusside

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of death, stroke, MI and renal dysfunction

    Measured: Initiation of study drug infusion through post-operative Day 30

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing clevidipine and sodium nitroprusside in people with Hypertension, run by The Medicines Company at 29 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 6 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in United States. 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 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 death, stroke, MI and renal dysfunction (time frame: Initiation of study drug infusion through post-operative Day 30). 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 NCT00093912, 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 6 May 2014.
