(i)Patients showing lethal or life-threatening hemorrhage (intracranial, gastrointestinal or pulmonary hemorrhage, and others). (ii)Patients having a strong possibility of onset of lethal or life-threatening hemorrhage. (iii)Patients with a history (within the past one year) of cerebrovascular disorders (cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, and others). (iv)Patients who recently underwent surgery of the central nervous system or were subjected to trauma. (v)Children under 15. (vi)Patients with a history of hypersensitivity to protein preparations or unfractionated heparin preparations. (vii)Pregnant women, nursing mothers or possibly pregnant women. (viii)Patients whose skin test for ART-123 is positive. (ix)Patients undergoing treatment by dialysis or with drug excretion severely damaged by serious renal disorder. (x)Patients with serious hepatopathy such as fulminant hepatitis, uncompensated liver cirrhosis and others. (xi)Patients believed to die early even if they recovered from DIC, making it difficult to ensure a sufficient period of administration of the study drug and to obtain data on the efficacy and safety. (xii)Patients given a study drug within last 6 months. (xiii)Patients participating in the past trial of ART-123. (xiv)Patients receiving preadministration of unfractionated heparin for DIC (within 3 months before the start of administration of study drug). (xv)Other patients judged to be inappropriate at the discretion of investigators (or assistant investigators).
