About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Open Label Trial, to Show Efficacy and Safety of 4.0 mg.Kg-1 Sugammadex Administered at a Depth of Neuromuscular Blockade of 1-2 PTC Induced by Rocuronium in Chinese and European ASA I-III Subjects Undergoing Elective Surgery Under Propofol Anesthesia

The present trial is set up to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 4.0 mg.kg-1 sugammadex in Chinese and Caucasian subjects for registration purposes in China.

What participants receive

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

  • SugammadexDrug

    Also called Org 25969, Bridion®

    After induction of anesthesia an intubation dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium was to be administered. Maintenance doses of 0.1-0.2 mg/kg rocuronium intravenous (IV) could have been administered if necessary. At 1-2 PTC after the last administration of rocuronium, an IV single bolus dose of 4.0 mg/kg sugammadex was to be administered.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time From Start of Administration of Sugammadex to Recovery of the T4/T1 Ratio to 0.9

    Neuromuscular functioning was monitored by applying repetitive train of four (TOF) electrical stimulations to the ulnar nerve every 15 seconds and assessing twitch response at the adductor pollicis muscle. Nerve stimulation continued until the ratio of the magnitude of the fourth twitch (T4) to first twitch (T1) reached at least 0.9. The greater the T4/T1 ratio the greater the recovery from neuromuscular blockade, with a value of 1.0 representing full recovery.

    Analysis of recovery in Chinese subjects was the primary objective; Caucasian subjects and between-group analyses were secondary.

    Measured: Start of administration of sugammadex to recovery from neuromuscular blockade

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time From Start of Administration of Sugammadex to Recovery of the T4/T1 Ratio to 0.7

    Neuromuscular functioning was monitored by applying repetitive train of four (TOF) electrical stimulations to the ulnar nerve every 15 seconds and assessing twitch response at the adductor pollicis muscle. The greater the T4/T1 ratio the greater the recovery from neuromuscular blockade.

    Measured: Start of administration of sugammadex to recovery from neuromuscular blockade

  2. Time From Start of Administration of Sugammadex to Recovery of the T4/T1 Ratio to 0.8

    Neuromuscular functioning was monitored by applying repetitive train of four (TOF) electrical stimulations to the ulnar nerve every 15 seconds and assessing twitch response at the adductor pollicis muscle. The greater the T4/T1 ratio the greater the recovery from neuromuscular blockade.

    Measured: Start of administration of sugammadex to recovery from neuromuscular blockade

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Sugammadex in people with Anesthesia, General and Neuromuscular Blockade, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Sep 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Time From Start of Administration of Sugammadex to Recovery of the T4/T1 Ratio to 0.9 (time frame: Start of administration of sugammadex to recovery from neuromuscular blockade). 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 NCT00826176, 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 7 Oct 2015.
