| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate safety and efficacy of microplasmin in patients with long term venous access catheter thrombosis. ;Secondary Objective: Non;Primary end point(s): The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of several dosing regimens of catheter-directed microplasmin. An attempt will be made to determine the dose or doses of microplasmin which achieve optimal efficacy after 1st treatment defined as catheter function restoration with acceptable safety in patients with radiographically-confirmed catheter thrombosis. | — |
