Etude (Study) Phase I Enox - UnFractionated Heparin (UFH)
- Registration Number
- NCT00622115
- Lead Sponsor
- Sanofi
- Brief Summary
Primary objective:
* to characterize the pharmacokinetic and the pharmacodynamic profile after intravenous bolus injection of unfractionated heparin (UFH) after repeated sc 100 IU anti-Xa/kg (corresponding to 1 mg/kg) twice a day during 2.5 days (every 12±2hrs) administrations of enoxaparin in Caucasian healthy subjects.
Secondary objective(s):
* to compare the pharmacokinetic and the pharmacodynamic profile between 3 different timing of administration of the UFH
* to assess the tolerability of the different anticoagulation protocols

Health Status:
-
Certified as healthy by a comprehensive clinical assessment (detailed medical history and complete physical examination)
-
Subject with hypertension, hypo- or hyperthyroidism or dyslipidemia will be included if their concomitant pathology is well-controlled by treatment for at least one year
