Brief summary

The trial objective is to demonstrate the safety of idarucizumab, as assessed by the occurence of patients with drug related adverse events (including immune reactions) and all-cause mortality in paediatric venous thromboembolism patients treated with dabigatran in ongoing clinical trials who require emergency surgery/urgent procedures or patients who have life-threatening or uncontrolled bleeding which requires urgent intervention, when rapid reversal of the anticoagulant effect of dabigatran is needed.

Inclusion criteria

Patients taking dabigatran etexilate in the paediatric trials 1160.106 or 1160.108 are eligible for this trial if they meet the following criteria: Group A: * Overt bleeding judged by the treating physician to require a reversal agent. * Currently taking dabigatran etexilate in the context of a clinical trial with dabigatran etexilate (1160.106 or 1160.108). * Male or female patients from 0 to less than 18 years of age at the time of informed consent/assent for participation in trial 1160.106 or in trial 1160.108. * Female patients of childbearing potential (defined as having experienced menarche) must have followed the contraception requirements according to the dabigatran trial 1160.106 or trial 1160.108 in which they are enrolled. * Written informed consent provided by the patient (and/or the patient's legally accepted representative) and assent provided by the patient (if applicable) at the time of informed consent signature in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and local legislation prior to admission to the trial. If the child is unable to give assent at the time of the emergency, the assent, when applicable will be obtained as soon as feasible. Group B: * A condition requiring an emergency surgery or invasive procedure where adequate haemostasis is required. Emergency is defined as need for surgery or intervention within the following 8 hours. * Currently taking dabigatran etexilate in the context of a clinical trial with dabigatran etexilate (1160.106 or 1160.108). * Male or female patients from 0 to less than 18 years of age at the time of informed consent/assent for participation in trial 1160.106 or in trial 1160.108. * Female patients of childbearing potential (defined as having experienced menarche) must have followed the contraception requirements according to the dabigatran trial 1160.106 or trial 1160.108 in which they are enrolled. * Written informed consent provided by the patient (and/or the patient's legally accepted representative) and assent provided by the patient (if applicable) at the time of informed consent signature in accordance with GCP and local legislation prior to admission to the trial. If the child is unable to give assent at the time of the emergency, the assent, when applicable will be obtained as soon as feasible.

Time to achieve reversal of anticoagulant effect of dabigatran based on the coagulation time for dTT and ECT, at any time point from the end of the second injection (vial 2) up to 24 hours (h). Reversal of the dabigatran effect at time t was defined as the 100 percent (%) \*(pre-dose coagulation time - post-dose coagulation time at time t)/(pre-dose coagulation test - upper limit of normal). Values equal to or higher than 100% were interpreted as reversal.

Recruitment details

An open-label, uncontrolled case series trial, with a single treatment arm of idarucizumab in patients with venous thromboembolism treated with dabigatran etexilate in ongoing Boehringer Ingelheim pediatric clinical trials (1160.106 and 1160.108). Treatment period was around 1 day followed by 29 days of safety follow-up period.

Pre-assignment details

All subjects were screened for eligibility to participants in the trial. Subjects attended specialist sites which would then ensure that they met all strictly implemented inclusion/exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be assigned to treatment groups if any one of the specific entry criteria were violated.

Participants by arm

ArmCount
Idarucizumab
2.5 gram (g) per 50 milliliter (mL) vial of Idarucizuma was administrated via intravenous injection (vial 1) with (in order of preference): a 5 minutes (min) infusion with an infusion pump, a 10 to 15 min drip, or intravenous push with a syringe followed by another injection (vial 2) of same dosage of Idarucizumab for participants who were treated with dabigatran and had uncontrolled or life threatening bleeding that required urgent medical or surgical intervention or who required emergency surgery/urgent procedures where adequate haemostasis was required (total dosage: up to 5g based on the weight of participant). Two equal injection parts were administered no more than 15 min apart. The time between start of injection of the first vial and end of the second vial was 22 min followed by 24 hours post-dose observation period.
