Condition(s) targeted: Anesthesia, General

Intervention: sugammadex (Drug)

Phase: Phase 2

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: Organon

Summary

The objective of the trial was to establish the dose-response relation of Org 25969 (sugammadex) given as a reversal agent of rocuronium or vecuronium at 1-2 PTC during sevoflurane anesthesia for Japanese subjects.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Multi-Center, Randomized, Open-Label, Prospective Bridging, Parallel Dose-Finding Trial Comparing Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of 4 Doses of Org 25969 and Placebo Administered at 1-2 PTC After Rocuronium or Vecuronium in Japanese and Caucasian Subjects. Part A: Japanese Subjects.

Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Dose Comparison, Parallel Assignment, Efficacy Study

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

Secondary outcome: Time from start of administration of Org 25969 to recovery of the T4/T1 ratio to 0.7, 0.8

Detailed description: A profound neuromuscular block is needed for surgeries such as microsurgery, neurosurgery and vascular surgery. Dosing recommendations for Org 25969 are needed for reversal of profound block. The current trial 19. 4.209A was conducted in Japan and set up to establish the doseresponse relationship of Org 25969 given at profound block, i. e., at 1-2 PTC, after rocuronium or vecuronium during sevoflurane anesthesia in Japanese subjects. In addition to recovery time, also safety of Org 25969 was to be evaluated.
