About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Open-label, Randomised, Clinical Trial to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Actilyse 2 mg/ 2 ml Versus Saline Solution in Restoring Function of an Occluded Central Venous Access Device

This is a multicentre, open-label, randomised, phase III study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Actilyse 2 mg/2 ml in the restoration of function of CVAD

Being tested
Actilyse, Saline solution

What participants receive

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

  • ActilyseDrug

    Actilyse 2mg/2ml will be given if the CVAD has not been restored at time 120min.

  • Saline solutionDrug

    Instil Saline solution 2 ml into the disfunctional CVAD once at time O only for patients enrolled in Group II

  • ActilyseDrug

    Instil Actilyse 2 mg/ 2 ml into the dysfunctional CVAD at time O.

  • ActilyseDrug

    Second dose of Actilyse 2mg/2ml will be given if CVAD has not been restored at time 120min.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of Patients With Restored CVAD Function at 120 Min After Administration of the First Dose of Study Medication

    Proportion (percentage) of patients with restored central venous access device (CVAD) function at 120 min after administration of the first dose of study medication (i.e. Actilyse® or saline solution).

    Measured: 120 minutes after first drug administration

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Restored CVAD Function 30 Minutes After Administration of Study Medication at Time 0

    Percentage of patients with restored CVAD function 30 minutes after administration of study medication at time 0 (i.e. Actilyse® or saline solution)

    Measured: 30 minutes after first drug administration

  2. Restored CVAD Function 30 Minutes After Administration of the Second Dose of Study Medication Actilyse

    Percentage of patients with restored CVAD function 30 minutes after administration of the second dose of study medication Actilyse (150 minutes after time 0)

    Measured: 150 minutes after first drug administration

  3. Restored CVAD Function 120 Minutes After Administration of the Second Dose of Study Medication Actilyse

    Percentage of patients with restored CVAD function 120 minutes after administration of the second dose of study medication Actilyse (240 minutes after time 0)

    Measured: 240 minutes after first drug administration

  4. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Restored CVAD Function After 1 Dose and 2 Doses, in Patients From the Actilyse Treatment Group.

    This endpoint was defined as the number of doses required to achieve restored CVAD function in patients from the actilyse treatment group but was analysed as the percentage of participants who achieved restored CVAD function after 1 dose and 2 doses, in patients from the actilyse treatment group.

    Measured: 0 minutes and 240 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Actilyse and Saline solution in people with Catheter Obstruction and Vascular Access Devices, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 5 sites in Russia.

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 16 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 1 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Russia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 May 2015). 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?

Proportion of Patients With Restored CVAD Function at 120 Min After Administration of the First Dose of Study Medication (time frame: 120 minutes after first drug administration). 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 1 May 2015.
