Trial overview
The available study is a Phase 3 trial of VMX-C001 in patients who are taking a Factor Xa direct oral anticoagulant and need urgent surgery or another procedure with a high risk of bleeding.[1]
This trial compares VMX-C001 with usual pharmacological care, which means the standard medicine-based care used in this situation.[1]
The study is authorised and planned for 439 participants.[1]
Who can participate
The trial is for patients already receiving a Factor Xa inhibitor treatment who need an urgent intervention linked to a high risk of bleeding.[1]
In simple terms, this means the study is focused on people who are on a blood thinner and suddenly need surgery or a procedure that could cause significant bleeding.[1]
What is being measured
The main endpoint is the proportion of participants with good or excellent haemostatic efficacy during the required procedure.[1]
Endpoint means the main result the researchers want to measure.[1]
Haemostatic efficacy means how well bleeding is controlled during the procedure, and the result is judged by an independent blinded EAC, which is a separate expert group that does not know which treatment the participant received.[1]
Trial phase and design
This is an interventional study, so researchers are giving a treatment and then checking the results.[1]
Because it is Phase 3, the trial is meant to test the treatment in a larger group and compare it with standard care in a real clinical setting.[1]
The study title also shows that the trial is looking at VMX-C001 versus usual pharmacological care in patients who need urgent surgery, with or without heparin.[1]
Why this trial matters
Urgent surgery in people taking a Factor Xa anticoagulant can be difficult because bleeding control is very important.[1]
This trial is designed to help answer whether VMX-C001 can improve bleeding control during these urgent procedures compared with the care that is usually used.[1]
For patients, the key question is whether the treatment helps the medical team achieve good or excellent control of bleeding at the time of surgery or the procedure.[1]
