Brief summary

This study is a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of ciraparantag administered to healthy volunteers anticoagulated with rivaroxaban measuring clotting times using Whole Blood Clotting Time (WBCT).

Detailed description

This is a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled assessment of the efficacy and safety of ciraparantag administered to healthy volunteers measuring clotting times using WBCT as determined by the manual testing method. All subjects will undergo screening up to 36 days prior to enrollment. All enrolled subjects are to receive a single dose of 20 mg rivaroxaban in the morning on Days 1-3. On Day 3 (3.75 hours post rivaroxaban), subjects who have a minimum increase in clotting time of 25% (as measured by WBCT) are randomized and will receive a single IV dose 4 hours after the rivaroxaban dose, followed by serial testing of manual WBCT. Subjects are enrolled sequentially in up to 4 ciraparantag dose cohorts. There will be a safety review after completion of treatment in one cohort and prior to initiation of treatment in the subsequent cohort.

Inclusion criteria

General Inclusion Criteria: 1. Adults age 50 to 75 years 2. Laboratory tests (chemistry, hematology and coagulation assessments) and urinalysis performed during screening up to 36 days prior to administration of study treatment deemed not clinically significant by the principal investigator. 3. No clinically significant findings on 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed during screening 4. Body mass index (BMI) 18 to ≤ 32 kg/m2, inclusive 5. Male subjects agree to use appropriate contraception in addition to their partner using an acceptable form of contraception, when engaging in sexual activity during the course of the study. Moreover, male subjects should not donate sperm or attempt to impregnate a partner during the course of the study and for a period of 12 weeks following discharge from the study. 6. Female subjects must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening AND: be surgically sterile OR postmenopausal for the last three months, OR in a monogamous relation with a male partner who has undergone a documented vasectomy a minimum of 6 months prior to study commencement. All females must agree to continue to use their method of birth control for the duration of the study and for a minimum of one complete menstrual cycle or 28 days following discharge from the study 7. Subjects who have participated in a prior study of ciraparantag must have been discharged from the study a minimum of 1 month prior to the planned treatment. 8. Subjects must understand and agree to comply with the requirements of the study and they must be willing to sign the informed consent form indicating voluntary consent to participate in the study prior to initiation of screening or study-related activities General

Exclusion criteria

Recruitment details

One study site in the US enrolled subjects between May 2017 and November 2019

Pre-assignment details

69 subjects enrolled; 64 subjects were randomized and 5 subjects were not randomized. Of the 5 subjects not randomized, 2 did not achieve a sufficient level of anticoagulation per protocol, 1 was withdrawn by Investigator decision (due to an asymptomatic low heart rate), 1 subject withdrew consent, and 1 had an AE during the rivaroxaban administration period causing discontinuation (T wave inversion observed on ECG).
