About this study

Official title: Improving Efficacy and Safety of Pathogen Inactivation Strategies for Platelet Transfusion in Cardiac Surgical Patients on Cardiopulmonary Bypass

This is a prospective randomized clinical trial designed to determine the hemostatic ability of pathogen reduced platelet, when compared to non-pathogen reduced platelets suspended in platelet additive solution.

Read the detailed description

The safety and efficacy of pathogen reduced (PRT) platelets (PLTs) have been investigated in several controlled clinical studies. Most of these clinical studies evaluated the efficacy of PRT PLTs during prophylactic transfusion evaluating post-transfusion platelet count increments, rather than platelet function during bleeding episodes. During massive transfusion events and immediate resuscitation, PLT transfusion is recognized as an important determinant of a positive patient outcome. PLT transfusion is important to control bleeding in patients undergoing cardiac surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass because cardiopulmonary bypass alters platelet function. Thus, transfusion of functional platelets is required to control bleeding post-operatively. In this context, the investigators propose to investigate whether efficient hemostasis associated with platelet transfusion differs with the use of pathogen reduced PRT PLTs compared to non-pathogen reduced PLTs that are suspended in platelet additive solution.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Maximum Amplitude (MA) of thromboelastography (TEG)

    ΔMA observed with platelet transfusion (difference in MA measured within an hour post transfusion to MA measured immediately pre-transfusion)

    Measured: within 60 minutes including blood for TEG testing immediately pre transfusion and blood draw post transfusion

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Chest Tube Drainage

    The volume in ml of chest tube drainage during the first 24 hours post surgery

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Red blood cell units Transfused

    number of red blood cell units transfused

    Measured: Within the first 24 Hrs Following Surgery

  3. Platelet Units Transfused

    number of platelet units transfused

    Measured: Within the first 24 Hrs Following Surgery

  4. Cryoprecipitate Units Transfused

    number of Cryoprecipitate Units Transfused

    Measured: Within the first 24 Hrs Following Surgery

  5. Plasma Units Transfused

    number of plasma units transfused

    Measured: Within the first 24 Hrs Following Surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Platelet transfusion in people with Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery, run by University of Maryland, Baltimore 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 6 Aug 2024. 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?

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?

Change in Maximum Amplitude (MA) of thromboelastography (TEG) (time frame: within 60 minutes including blood for TEG testing immediately pre transfusion and blood draw post transfusion). 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 6 Aug 2024.
