Trial summary

Concentration determinations of anticoagulants require plasma instead of whole blood, and results are not immediately available to clinicians. Monitoring anticoagulants concentration along with bedside methods may provide an alternative guide for administration of the NOAC. Read more about this study

Study population: Patients indicated for NOAC-therapy

The indication for the use of NOAC is provided by the attending physician. The criteria for inclusion and exclusion criteria for the use of the new oral anticoagulants must meet appropriate eligibility criteria and the clinical guidelines that are described in the SOPs.

Patients treated with dabigatran 2x150mg / d for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in non-valvular atrial fibrillation are included.

Moreover, patients treated with rivaroxaban 20 mg / d for DVT prophylaxis and treatment of recurrent DVT or PE are included.

About this study

Official title: Time-dependent ex Vivo Influence of Rivaroxaban on Point-of-care Devices

Concentration determinations of anticoagulants require plasma instead of whole blood, and results are not immediately available to clinicians. Monitoring anticoagulants concentration along with bedside methods may provide an alternative guide for administration of the NOAC.

The purpose of this investigation is to compare bedside coagulation assays in whole blood with plasma concentrations of the new oral anticoagulants (NOAC) in patients treated with therapeutic dosis of NOAC.

Read the detailed description

This open-label study will be performed by ex vivo investigations. Patients receiving the NOAC as dabigatran or rivaroxaban in therapeutic doses are recruited and informed consent of two blood sampling times will be obtained in correlation to the time of drug intake (two and 24 hours after drug intake). The bedside measurements will be performed and compared directly with the concentrations determined by plasma concentration assays. These investigations will be performed at the department of Angiology at the university hospital Frankfurt.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Effect of NOAC on POCT, run by Cardioangiologisches Centrum Bethanien.

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 12 Mar 2024. 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.

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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01613443, 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 12 Mar 2024.
