简要总结
Defibrotide is an anti-inflammatory and anti-coagulatory agent approved for treatment of veno-occlusive disease. Although it has been in clinical use for almost 30 years, the exact mechanism of action has never been fully elucidated. Thus, the effects of defibrotide will be investigated in the human endotoxemia model in order to gather further information on its actions.
详细描述
Defibrotide (DF) is a highly complex polydisperse mixture of single-stranded phosphodiester oligodeoxyribonucleotides derived from the controlled depolymerization of porcine intestinal mucosal DNA. The entire mode of action remains unknown. Its actions may be summarized to pro-fibrinolytic, anti-inflammatory and anti-coagulatory actions. To better define the mechanisms of Defibrotide the effects of the substance will be investigated in the well-established endotoxemia model. Sixteen healthy volunteers will be randomized to receive LPS±defibrotide/placebo and four subjects will be randomized to receive Placebo± defibrotide/placebo in a single center, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, two-way crossover trial. Immediately after a 2h infusion of 6,25mg/kg bodyweight defibrotide or placebo a LPS bolus of 2ng/kg bodyweight will be infused. Analyses will be performed by blood sampling at pre-defined time-points.

结局指标
主要结局
Prothrombin Fragments f1+2
时间窗: The parameter was assessed at baseline, at 0h, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 24h.
Based on the changes from baseline an area-under the concentration-time curve will be calculated and will be compared between the placebo and the verum phase within each subject. The respective arbitrary unit therefore is fold\*h. The "placebo period" (4 subjects who did not receive lipopolysaccharide) was only included for a descriptive comparison, but not for statistical comparison
