Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Body weight 1.5x ULN - Total bilirubin >1.5x ULN - Platelet count <150,000 or recent (over the last 3 months) history of thrombocytopenia (e.g. platelet count <150,000); 9. Positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; by history of having HIV antibodies), positive hepatitis B (hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg]) or hepatitis C (antihepatitis C antibody [Anti-HCV]) at Screening; 10. Uncontrolled hypertension as judged by the Investigator; 11. Clinically significant abnormal ECG at Screening, as judged by the Investigator; 12. Active infection; 13. Unable to undergo venography due to a known allergy to the contrast agent, anticipated poor venous access, impaired renal function, or any other reason identified and specified by the PI; 14. Hypersensitivity to enoxaparin or any contraindication listed in the local labeling of enoxaparin; 15. Any underlying condition (e.g., atrial fibrillation, mechanical heart valve, or recent pulmonary embolism) that may lead to the required concomitant use of anticoagulants/antiplatelet agents (e.g., warfarin, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, clopidogrel) that may affect study outcome or any other drug influencing coagulation (except low dose aspirin (100 mg or less)); 16. Anticipated use of intermittent pneumatic compression devices and/or electrical/mechanical muscle stimulators post TKA procedure; 17. Anticipated use of indwelling intrathecal or epidural catheters; 18. Participation in any other investigational study drug trial in which receipt of an investigational study drug occurred within 60 days prior to Day 1; 19. History of alcoholism or drug addiction within 1 year prior to Screening; 20. Any acute or chronic condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would limit the patient’s ability to complete and/or participate in this clinical study; or 21. Unwillingness to comply with all study procedures including follow-up visits, as specified by this protocol, or unwillingness to cooperate fully with the Investigator.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: - To investigate the efficacy of SelK2 as monotherapy for the prevention of VTE (venous thromboembolism) (composite of asymptomatic DVT (deep vein thrombosis) detected by mandatory unilateral venography of the operated leg or confirmed symptomatic DVT, confirmed symptomatic PE (pulmonary embolism) or unexplained death) in patients undergoing primary unilateral TKA. - To assess the incidence of bleeding events (major bleeding events, clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding events, and minor bleeding events) in patients administered SelK2 and undergoing primary unilateral TKA. - To assess the overall safety and tolerability of SelK2 in this patient population. Adaptive Arm (SelK2 given concomitantly with enoxaparin; SelK2, 7.5 mg/kg, IV and enoxaparin, 40 mg, SC, QD): -Assess the efficacy and safety of SelK2 when given in addition to enoxaparin for the prevention of VTE in patients undergoing primary unilateral TKA;Secondary Objective: - To further describe the PK and PD of SelK2. - To evaluate the immunogenicity of single dose SelK2. - To evaluate exploratory efficacy endpoints of inflammation and thrombosis.;Primary end point(s): The incidence of total venous thromboembolism will consist of a composite of: - Asymptomatic deep-vein thrombosis of the operated leg (detected by mandatory unilateral venography); - confirmed symptomatic DVT of the leg(s); - confirmed symptomatic pulmonary embolism; and - unexplained death for which pulmonary embolism could not be ruled out.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: See protocol

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • The incidence of total bleeding events categorized as: - Major Bleeding event (MB), - Clinically Relevant Non-Major Bleeding event (CRNMB), - Minor Bleeding. • Laboratory Markers of Inflammation and Thrombosis. Absolute changes from baseline in levels of high sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hsCRP) and D-dimer will be assessed. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: See protocol
