Brief summary
This is a first in man, prospective, single-center, randomized, double-blind, dose-escalation cohort study to investigate tolerability, safety and pharmacokinetics of rVIIa-FP in comparison to placebo.
Interventions
Recombinant VIIa-FP (rVIIa-FP) is a fusion protein linking coagulation factor VIIa with albumin and will be administered by intravenous infusion in escalating doses up to 1000 mcg/kg. Participants will receive pre-treatment with an oral anticoagulant starting 7 days prior to administration of study product and continuing for 7 days after study product has been administered.
Placebo will be administered by intravenous infusion. Participants will receive pre-treatment with an oral anticoagulant starting 7 days prior to administration of placebo and continuing for 7 days after placebo has been administered.
