What participants receive

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

  • Fondaparinux sodiumDrug

    Also called GSK576428

    The dose of Fondaparinux will be determined based on a subject's body weight (< 50 kg, 5 mg; 50 to 100 kg, 7.5 mg; >100 kg, 10 mg) and administered once daily by subcutaneous (SC) injection.

  • unfractionated heparin (UFH)Drug

    UFH therapy will be started on Day 1 while adjusting activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) to maintain aPTT 1.5 to 2.5 times control.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Recurrent or New Symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism (VTE)

    VTE (pulmonary thromboembolism [PE] and/or deep vein thrombosis [DVT]) was adjudicated blindly by the Central Independent Adjudication Committee of Efficacy (CIACE).

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 90 (±7 days)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Recurrent or New Symptomatic/Asymptomatic VTE (by Type)

    VTE (pulmonary thromboembolism [PE] and/or deep vein thrombosis [DVT]) was adjudicated blindly by the CIACE.

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 90 (±7 days)

  2. Percentage of Participants With Perfusion Lung Scan Results Scored as Improved, no Change, or Worse Compared to Baseline

    Classifications of "Improved," "No change," or "Worse" were adjudicated blindly by the CIACE.

    Measured: Baseline, single day between Day 5 and Day 10 (the day when the medication [FPX or UFH] was finished /discontinued) (±1 day)

  3. Total Perfusion Score at Baseline and Mean Change From Baseline at Day 5-10

    Change from baseline was calculated as the score on the day medication was finished/discontinued (anywhere from Day 5 to Day 10) minus the baseline score. The perfusion score (0: no perfusion; 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1: normal) in each of the six lobes of the lung was adjudicated blindly by the CIACE. Total perfusion score (r) was calculated as: r = (0.25 x right lower lobe) + (0.12 x right middle lobe) + (0.18 x right upper lobe) + (0.20 x left lower lobe) + (0.12 x lingula) + (0.13 x left upper lobe).

    Measured: Baseline, single day between Day 5 and Day 10 (the day when the medication [FPX or UFH] was finished /discontinued) (±1 day)

  4. Percentage of Participants With a Bleeding Event

    Bleeding events (major bleeding [clinically overt bleeding with fatality, location in a critical organ, a fall in hemoglobin >=2 grams (g)/deciliter (dL), or a transfusion >=2 units]; minor bleeding [clinically overt bleeding and not adjudicated as major bleeding], and no bleeding) were adjudicated blindly by the Central Independent Adjudication Committee of Safety (CIACS).

    Measured: Initial treatment period (from the first dose of FPX/UFH to N days after the last dose of FPX/UFH; specified based on creatinine clearance [CLcr]; N=3, CLcr >=50 mL/min; N=4, 30 =< CLcr < 50 mL/min; N=9, CLcr < 30 mL/min).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Fondaparinux sodium and unfractionated heparin (UFH) in people with Thrombosis, Venous, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 24 sites in Japan.

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 25 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 23 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 24 sites in Japan. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Jun 2010). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Recurrent or New Symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) (time frame: From Day 1 to Day 90 (±7 days)). 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 NCT00911157, 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 23 Nov 2016.
