Clinical Trial: Recombinant Human Antithrombin (rhAT) in Patients With Hereditary Antithrombin Deficiency Undergoing Surgery or Delivery

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: A Multicenter, Multinational Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Antithrombin Alfa in Hereditary Antithrombin (AT) Deficient Patients in High-Risk Situations for Thrombosis

Brief Summary: Patients with hereditary antithrombin deficiency are at increased risk of venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, particularly during certain high risk procedures. The trial focused on patients with confirmed hereditary antithrombin deficiency who were undergoing a surgical procedure or induced/spontaneous labor and delivery, and/or caesarean section. The study assessed the incidence of thromboembolic events following prophylactic intravenous administration of recombinant human antithrombin (rhAT) to patients with hereditary antithrombin (AT) deficiency in situations usually associated with a high risk for thromboembolic events.

Detailed Summary:

GTC Biotherapeutics established clinical trial sites in Europe, Canada, Australia, Austria and Canada. GTC Biotherapeutics provided an international clinical team to support site registration requirements once a patient was identified for treatment. GTC Biotherapeutics also provided consultation to help evaluate patient eligibility.

In September 2006, GTC Biotherapeutics modified exclusion criteria 1 (below) to allow for the participation of previously excluded patients with the hereditary thrombophilic disorders Factor V Leiden and prothrombin gene mutation (G20210A).

Current Primary Outcome: Incidence of Thromboembolic Events Acute Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) and/or Thromboembolic Events Other Than Acute Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) [ Time Frame: During treatment and follow up period of 7 days ]

To assess the incidence of thromboembolic events acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and/or thromboembolic events other than acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) by clinical signs and symptoms of venous thromboembolism (VTE), confirmed by diagnostic assessments.
