Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To analyze the pharmacokinetics and dynamics of Dabigatran 75 mg twice daily in patients with severe CKD (eGFR 15 - 30 ml/min) until steady state of the drug is established. ;Secondary Objective: - Effects of Dabigatran on D-dimer levels in patients with chronic kidney disease - HAS-BLED en Chads-Vasc scores;Primary end point(s): - Overall safety and tolerability profile (AEs, routine labs, vital signs) - Pharmacodynamics: onset, maximal effect, overall (AUC per 24 hrs) effect for frequently measured coagulation parameters and change from baseline when applicable (fibrinogen, AT) Hemoclot test - Pharmacokinetics: Cmax, Tmax, AUC, T½ , CL/F, Vz/F, renal excretion (tbd: plasma protein binding, proportion of total dabigatran excreted as glucuronides) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Lab sampling will be drawn at the following points in time: • Predose • .5 • 1 • 2 • 3 • 4 • 6 • 8 • 12 • 23.5 • 27.5 • 47.5 • 51.5 • 71.5 • 75.5 • 95.5 • 99.5 • 119.5 • 123, 5 • 167 • 168.5 • 169 • 170 • 171 • 172 • 174 • 176 • 180 • 192 • 216 • 240 This scheme requires a patient’s admission for two days of thirteen hours (predose -13 hours and 167-180 after the first intake). From day two until day six, two samples will be drawn each day, one prior and one after oral intake of dabigatran. For all blood drawings (accept those between 0-13 and 167-180 hours), the possibility of a visiting home nurse will be offered to all study patients.
