Brief summary

The main purpose of this study was to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of intraoperative use of fibrinogen concentrate BT524, as a complementary therapy for the management of uncontrolled severe hemorrhage in acquired hypofibrinogenemia. This non-inferiority study focused on the primary objective of demonstrating that BT524 is non-inferior that means not worse than the comparator fresh frozen plasma/cryoprecipitate in reducing intraoperative blood loss when administered intravenously in subjects with acquired hypofibrinogenemia undergoing elective major spinal or abdominal surgery.

Detailed description

Fibrinogen is the first coagulation factor to become critically reduced during intraoperative bleeding. Therefore, rapid supplementation of fibrinogen to restore physiological plasma levels is an important component in achieving and maintaining hemostasis in bleeding patients. In this study, subjects with major blood loss during elective spinal surgery or abdominal surgery were randomized to receive either intravenous transfusion of the fibrinogen concentrate BT524, or fibrinogen-containing fresh frozen plasma/cryoprecipitate as first hemostatic intervention to rapidly replenish fibrinogen and control bleeding.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALBT524

BT524 was administered intravenously at a patient specific dosage depending on the type of surgery, the extent of bleeding and the subject's clinical condition.

BIOLOGICALFFP/Cryo

FFP/Cryo was administered intravenously; dosage according to local standards. FFP, 15 mL per kg body weight (BW); Cryoprecipitate, fixed dose of 10 units.
