Official title
" An Open Label Pilot Study Evaluating Safety and Evidence of Therapeutic Effect of IV Admin of 2-0, 3-0 Desulfated Heparin, Treatment of Exacerbation of Protein Losing Enteropathy (PLE) Associated With Single Ventricle Palliative Surgery"
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Protein Losing Enteropathy (PLE) is a serious medical condition that may develop in children and adults with congenital heart disease for which a palliative procedure known as the "Fontan procedure" has been performed. The loss of serum proteins into the gastrointestinal tract that is associated with PLE can cause serious symptoms and life-threatening complications. A number of clinical studies have suggested that heparin administration can have clinical benefit in children with PLE, however the risk of bleeding associated with the administration of heparin is an important concern and commonly limits its administration. ODSH is a desulfated heparin with minimal anticoagulation properties but which, in pre-clinical studies, appears to have the potential to replace heparin and greatly reduce the risk of bleeding. This open label study is to assess the safety and evidence of therapeutic effect of the administration of ODSH as a 4-day continuous intravenous infusion in patients with an exacerbation of their PLE.
