About this study

Official title: Assessment of Coagulation Factor Levels in LVAD Patients Following Temporary Warfarin Reversal With 4F-PCC

Prospective assessment of vitamin K dependent coagulation factor levels after temporary warfarin reversal in participants with left ventricular assist devices (LAVD).

Read the detailed description

Prospective evaluation of the levels of the vitamin K dependent coagulation factors 2,7,9,10, and proteins C and S, in patients on warfarin treated with four factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC). Participants on vitamin K antagonists (VKA) such as warfarin have suppressed levels that are brought to the normal range with treatment with 4F-PCC to reverse the warfarin effect. The investigators will assess the duration of effect of 4F-PCC on these factor levels in participants with left ventricular assist devices (VAD) requiring temporary reversal of warfarin for invasive procedures that have a risk of bleeding. The investigators will also assess the time to return to therapeutic INR..

Being tested
four factor prothrombin complex concentrate

What participants receive

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

  • four factor prothrombin complex concentrateDrug

    After treatment with 4F-PCC, coagulation factor levels will be assessed. Time to return to anticoagulation target INR will also be determined.

Study groups in NCT03473132
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
TreatmentExperimentalBased on starting international normalized ratio (INR) and target INR, the dose of four factor prothrombin complex concentrate will be calculated and infused. Coagulation factor levels will be assessed over 48-72 hours.
Receives: Drug: four factor prothrombin complex concentrate

What is being measured

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

  1. plasma concentration of factors II,VII, IX, X, proteins S and C every 6 hours for 48 hours after treatment with 4F-PCC and correlation with international normalized ratio

    assessment of change in vitamin K dependent coagulation factor levels after infusion of 4F-PCC

    Measured: through 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Adverse events

    bleeding

    Measured: 30 days

  2. adverse events

    thrombosis

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing four factor prothrombin complex concentrate in people with Anticoagulation and Anticoagulation Reversal, run by Brigham and Women's Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 May 2021. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jean M Connors, MD (617-525-9337, jconnors@bwh.harvard.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

plasma concentration of factors II,VII, IX, X, proteins S and C every 6 hours for 48 hours after treatment with 4F-PCC and correlation with international normalized ratio (time frame: through 48 hours). 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 NCT03473132, 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 5 May 2021.
