About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Bolus-dose Lusedra (Fospropofol Disodium) 6.5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg Versus a Placebo (With Midazolam Rescue) for Minimal-to-moderate Sedation in Patients Undergoing Procedural Sedation for Regional Anesthesia Blocks Prior to Orthopedic Surgery

How does Lusedra compare with current standard of care (midazolam) for minimal to moderate sedation for regional anesthesia blocks prior to orthopedic surgery?

Read the detailed description

The study overall is aimed at establishing the superiority of a single intravenous bolus-dose of Lusedra for routine use in preoperative regional blocks that avoids deeper levels of sedation and increased risk of nerve damage in an over-sedated individual. The shorter half-life of Lusedra should also demonstrate a superior recovery profile compared to midazolam when used as a rescue comparator. While this study will only enroll patients undergoing regional blocks prior to orthopedic surgery, the clinical utility and value of the larger initial intravenous dosing for Lusedra may be evident for many different monitored anesthesia care anesthetic management situations requiring rapid and effective onset of effects.

What participants receive

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

  • Fospropofol disodiumDrug

    Also called Lusedra

    10 mg/kg bolus

  • Fospropofol disodiumDrug

    Also called Lusedra

    6.5 mg/kg bolus

  • Placebo + MidazolamDrug

    Also called Versed

    Placebo bolus plus midazolam. The dose of midazolam will be based on the patient's weight: 1 mg for patients <60 kg; 1.5 mg for patients ≥60 kg to <90 kg; or 2 mg for patients ≥90 kg

  • FentanylDrug

    Also called Fentanyl Citrate, Sublimaze

    All patients will receive a single dose of IV fentanyl (approximately 1 μg/kg not to exceed: 50 μg for patients <60 kg; 75 μg for patients ≥90 kg) five minutes prior to the initial dose of sedative.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Sedation Within 4 Minutes

    Percentage of patients achieving a Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale score less than or equal to 4, and the block procedure initiated, within 4 minutes of the administration of the first bolus of study drug. The Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale ranges from 0 (does not respond to deep stimulus) to 6 (agitated). The score of 4 equals "lethargic response to name spoken in normal tone."

    Measured: approximately 4 minutes after administration of first bolus of study drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Fospropofol disodium and Fentanyl in people with Procedural Sedation and Regional Anesthesia Block, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site 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?

The sponsor lists 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jun 2012. 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 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Mar 2012). 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 Achieving Sedation Within 4 Minutes (time frame: approximately 4 minutes after administration of first bolus of study drug). 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 29 Jun 2012.
