Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main study parameters used for evaluating the short term safety and tolerability will be vital signs ((heart frequency and blood pressure) before and until 15 minutes after administration of the study drug and the need for intervention), biochemistry and haematology taken as part of the clinical protocol, and the occurrence of (Serious) Adverse Events ((S)AEs) until a maximum of 7 days on the ICU or until discharge from the ICU, whichever occurs earlier. For evaluation of the pharmacokinetics profile of 2-IB six plasma samples will be taken and analysed. Pharmacokinetic parameters to be determined will include Cmax, AUC, Tmax, t1/2, clearance (Cl), and volume of distribution (Vd). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary parameters that will be evaluated: 1. Short term efficacy as determined by biochemical markers NSE and s100b at 24h and 48h after OHCA. 2. Longer term safety as determined by the occurrence of SAEs until 30 days after OHCA including death. 3. Longer term efficacy as determined by the Cerebral Performance Category (CPC) and IQCODE at 30 days after OHCA or alternatively the Adult Lifestyles and Function Interview (ALFI) scale (by telephone). | — |
