简要总结
This was a Phase III, open-label study conducted at 44 centers in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. 223 subjects who required hemodialysis (HD) and had a dysfunctional HD catheter were enrolled in the study.
详细描述
The study consisted of four visits that corresponded to consecutive HD sessions for each patient, as well as one follow-up visit. Patients could receive up to three treatments with open-label tenecteplase during the study: one or two treatments during an initial treatment course, and eligible patients whose catheter became dysfunctional again within 21 days of the first visit received an additional treatment as part of a retreatment (RT) course.
At Visit 1, patients eligible at the beginning of HD had 2 mL (2 mg) of tenecteplase instilled into each of the two lumens of the HD catheter. After a dwell time of 1 hour, study drug was withdrawn and all subjects underwent HD. The duration of the HD session was not fixed by the study protocol, but rather by the site's HD practice, physician orders, and individual patient response during the session. Patients who did not experience treatment success at the end of Visit 1 had 2 mL (2 mg) of tenecteplase instilled into each lumen of their catheter as part of the initial treatment course. The treatment was left to dwell for an extended time, until the second HD session at Visit 2 (up to 72 hours later). Patients who received extended-dwell tenecteplase had the treatment withdrawn from their catheter at the beginning of Visit 2. Patients underwent HD as prescribed or to the extent possible.
Patients who had treatment success at Visit 1 or Visit 2 and had a recurrence of catheter dysfunction within 21 days of Visit 1 and met the re-treatment eligibility criteria had 2 mL (2 mg) of tenecteplase instilled into each lumen, followed by a 1-hour dwell time at re-treatment Visit 1.

研究组 & 干预措施
Tenecteplase
At each treatment, subjects had 2 mL (2 mg) of tenecteplase instilled into each lumen of their HD catheter. Subjects could receive up to three treatments with tenecteplase, the first two as part of the initial treatment course and one additional treatment as part of the retreatment (RT) course. The first treatment, followed by a 1-hour dwell time, was given to all subjects at Visit 1. At the end of hemodialysis at Visit 1, eligible subjects had a second treatment instilled for an extended dwell time until the start of Visit 2 (up to 72 hours).
干预措施: Tenecteplase (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Participants Who Had Treatment Success With Respect to Blood Flow Rate (BFR) at Visit 1
时间窗: Visit 1 (the first hemodialysis session in which treatment was administered). BFR was measured at the beginning of hemodialysis (Baseline measurement) and at 30 minutes prior to the end of hemodialysis and at the end of hemodialysis.
Treatment success is defined as Blood Flow Rate (BFR) ≥ 300 mL/min and an increase of ≥ 25 mL/min from baseline BFR (without reversal of lines), at an associated arterial pressure in the range of 0 to -280 mmHg, 30 (± 10) minutes prior to the end of hemodialysis and at the end of hemodialysis.
Targeted Adverse Events From the Initial Study Drug Administration Through the Start of Visit 2 or Until Instillation of Extended-Dwell Tenecteplase
时间窗: From initial study drug administration to the end of Visit 1 (prior to administration of open-label, extended-dwell tenecteplase) or, for patients who did not receive extended-dwell tenecteplase, from initial study administration to the start of Visit 2.
The primary outcome measure was the number of targeted adverse events, occurring from initial study drug administration through the end of Visit 1 (prior to administration of open-label, extended-dwell tenecteplase) or, for subjects who did not receive open-label, extended-dwell tenecteplase, from initial study administration through the start of Visit 2. Targeted adverse events were defined as intracranial hemorrhage, major bleeding and embolic events, thrombosis, Catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSIs), and catheter-related complications.
