Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To confirm that methylene blue after a single administration is efficacious in patients with acquired methemoglobinemia.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of a single dose of 1 mg/kg of methylene blue · To evaluate the efficacy of a second dose of 1 mg/kg of methylene blue to further reduce metHb levels when metHb is not fully reduced by a single dose; · To evaluate the normalisation of the respiratory rate, heart rate and blood pressure of patients who achieve a reduction in metHb level within 2 hours of receiving the first dose of methylene blue · To confirm the safety and tolerability of methylene blue injection in patients with acquired methemoglobinemia.;Primary end point(s): A 50% reduction in metHb level for treatment of acquired methemoglobinemia.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: within 1 hour of the first dose of ProvayBlue | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1) Concomitant normalisation of the respiratory rate, heart rate and blood pressure 2) Evaluation of the patients who achieve a 50% reduction in metHb level after a single dose of methylene blue in addition to normalisation of the respiratory rate, heart rate and blood pressure; 3a) Evaluation of the number of patients who achieve a 50% reduction in metHb level in addition to 3b) normalisation of the respiratory rate, heart rate and blood pressure· 4) Evaluation of the patients who achieve a 50% reduction in metHb level after a second dose of methylene blue, in addition to normalisation of the respiratory rate, heart rate and blood pressure, in cases where a single dose did not completely normalise metHb level;;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: for 1), within 2 hours of the first dose of methylene blue; for 3a) within one hour after treatment with methylene blue for 3b) within 2 hours of receiving the first dose of methylene blue | — |
