Trial summary

The Heparin form a complex with a plasma protein, antithrombin III (ATIII), which is an endogenous anticoagulant. This complex inhibits the formation of thrombin and accelerates its destruction. Moreover, heparin and other proteases ATIII inactivate the clotting cascade, especially the anti-activated factor X. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical Study to Assess the Safety of the Use of the Drug Heparin Sodium Produced by the Laboratory Blausiegel Compared in Parallel to the Product Liquemine ® Laboratory Roche in Patients With Chronic Renal Failure.

The Heparin form a complex with a plasma protein, antithrombin III (ATIII), which is an endogenous anticoagulant. This complex inhibits the formation of thrombin and accelerates its destruction. Moreover, heparin and other proteases ATIII inactivate the clotting cascade, especially the anti-activated factor X. The end result of these actions is the inhibition of biochemical training and synthesis of certain clotting factors that activators of critical functions in the genesis of a blood clot. Patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) who use the treatment of hemodialysis need a system of anticoagulation with the direct thrombin inhibitor and / or heparinóides to prevent thrombosis.

Based on clinical studies, to control the level of plasma heparin in patients with CRF is essential. Evidence of clotting as APTT, TP, ACT and proof of the activity of anti-factor Xa should be used as a substrate of protection for those patients on hemodialysis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Heparin sodic and heparin liquemine in people with Chronic Renal Failure, run by Azidus Brasil at 1 site in Brazil.

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 15 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Nov 2022. 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 Brazil. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Safety use of the heparin in patients with renal failure. (time frame: 12 dialysis sessions). 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 3 Nov 2022.
