Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of MTR105 in Hypotensive Cardiac Surgery Patients
- Registration Number
- NCT00482287
- Lead Sponsor
- Meditor Pharmaceuticals Ltd.
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic and the pharmacodynamic effects of escalating doses of MTR105 while weaning from bypass in a hypotensive population of cardiac surgery patients.
- Detailed Description
The study is a prospective, randomized, four-arm, dose-escalating, double blind, placebo controlled study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of four dose levels of MTR105 in patients undergoing cardiac surgery utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass presenting hypotension upon weaning off bypass.
