Acquired Bleeding Disorder, Cardiac Surgery Requiring Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Conditions
Brief summary
This trial is conducted in Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety of escalating single doses of rFXIII (recombinant factor XIII, catridecacog) administered following first time myocardial revascularization requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Interventions
Single doses of rFXIII administered intravenously (i.v.) to eight subjects in each of the four dose groups (11.9, 25, 35 and 50 IU/kg).
Single doses of placebo administered intravenously (i.v.) to two subjects in each of the four dose groups (11.9, 25, 35 and 50 IU/kg).
