Condition(s) targeted: Anesthesia, General

Intervention: Sugammadex (Drug); neostigmine (Drug)

Phase: Phase 3

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp.

Summary

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate in adult patients faster recovery from a neuromuscular block induced by either rocuronium or vecuronium after reversal at reappearance of T2 by 2. 0 mg/kg Org 25969 (sugammadex) compared to 50 ug/kg neostigmine.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Multi -Center Randomized Parallel Group Comparative Active Controlled Safety Assessor Blinded Phase 3a Pivotal Trial in Adult Subjects Comparing Org 25969 With Neostigmine as Reversal Agents of a Neuromuscular Block Induced by Rocuronium or Vecuronium at Reappearance of T2

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome: Time from start administration of Org 25969/neostigmine to recovery T4/T1 ratio to 0.9.

Secondary outcome: Time from start administration of Org 25969/neostigmine to recovery T4/T1 ratio to 0.7 and 0.8; assessment of clinical signs of recovery (level of consciousness, 5 sec head lift, general muscle weakness)
