About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Randomized, Active Comparator-Controlled, Adaptive Parallel-group Phase 2 Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Multiple Doses of ISIS 416858 Administered Subcutaneously to Patients Undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty

The purpose of this study is:

  • To assess the safety and efficacy profile of ISIS-FXIRx, including incidence of bleeding and VTE, in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.
  • To compare the efficacy and safety profile of ISIS-FXIRx in patients who achieve less than or equal to 0.2 U/mL FXI activity levels to that of enoxaparin.
Being tested
ISIS-FXIRx Dose #2, ISIS-FXIRx Dose #3, Enoxaparin
Keywords

Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • ISIS-FXIRx Dose #2Drug

    Also called ISIS-FXIRx

    Group B: ISIS-FXIRx dose #2 subcutaneously administered 7 times prior to total knee arthroplasty, and 2 times after surgery.

  • ISIS-FXIRx Dose #3Drug

    Also called ISIS-FXIRx

    Group C: ISIS-FXIRx dose #3 subcutaneously administered 7 times prior to total knee arthroplasty, and 2 times after surgery.

  • EnoxaparinDrug

    Also called Lovenox, Clexane

    Enoxaparin (40mg) will be administered by subcutaneous injection the evening prior to total knee arthroplasty (optionally), 6 to 8 hours after surgery, followed by daily injections for at least 8 additional days post surgery (a total of at least 9 consecutive days). [Except for Canadian region, in which the subcutaneous injection of enoxaparin the evening prior to total knee arthroplasty is expected, resulting in a total of at least 10 consecutive days of enoxaparin.]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ISIS-FXIRx Dose #2, ISIS-FXIRx Dose #3 and Enoxaparin in people with Venous Thromboembolism, run by Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 21 sites in 5 countries.

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 19 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 27 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Latvia, Canada. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary efficacy outcome (time frame: up to 12 days post-surgery). 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 NCT01713361, 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 27 Aug 2014.
