A Prospective, randomized, single blind, multicenter Phase III study on organ preservation with Custodiol-N solution compared with Custodiol solution in liver transplantation
Overview

- Phase 3
- Status
- Not yet recruiting
- Sponsor
- Dr. Franz Koehler Chemie GmbH
- Enrollment
- 200
- Locations
- 7
- Primary Endpoint
- Area under the curve (AUC) GPT (ALT) after transplantation during 7 days: with each liver transplant patient enrolled in the study, GPT will be measured once per day during the first 7 days, according to the standard practice of the center laboratory. Area under the curve will be analysed for this variable comparing Custodiol and Custodiol-N groups

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Area under the curve (AUC) GPT (ALT) after transplantation during 7 days: with each liver transplant patient enrolled in the study, GPT will be measured once per day during the first 7 days, according to the standard practice of the center laboratory. Area under the curve will be analysed for this variable comparing Custodiol and Custodiol-N groups

Area under the curve will be analysed for this variable comparing Custodiol and Custodiol-N groups
Secondary Outcomes
- Absolute peak LDH within 7 days after transplantation: the highest peak of lactate-dehydrogenase within 7 days after transplantation according to the practice of the site laboratory
- Olthoff criteria: bilirubin, international normalized ratio of prothrombin (INR). The Olthoff criteria will be applied to evaluate initial poor function when one or more of the following parameters would be present: Bilirubin ≥ 10 mg/dl on Day 7 after the surgery; INR ≥ 1.6 on Day 7 after the surgery; Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 2000 IU/L within the first 7 days after the surgery
- MEAF score (Model for early allograft dysfunction)
- Evaluation of the moment (day) of peak GPT and peak LDH: the highest daily peak GPT and peak LDH will be evaluated for comparisons between groups
- Evaluation of the serum bilirubin, GOT, GPT, LDH, total albumin and PT at 3 months and 6 months: these parameters will be measured at 3 months and 6 months after liver transplantation according to the references values of the site laboratory
- Number of episodes of cholestasis
- Therapy for cholangitis
- Episodes of biliary leakage and intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic biliary strictures
- Comparison in Extended Criteria Donors: the influence of Custodiol-N in liver transplants with ECD and DCD donors will be compared. ECD donors are defined as high risk donors with a donor risk index (DRI) higher than 1.7
- Comparison in DCD donors: DCD donors are defined as donation after circulatory death donors and will be compared in liver transplants with Custodiol and Custodiol-N
