About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if VMX-C001 works to to allow blood clotting control in participants who take FXa Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) during surgery or other invasive procedures that carry a high risk of bleeding. The main question it aims to answer is:

● What is the proportion of participants in whom the stopping of bleeding was classed as good or excellent during the procedure, as judged by a group of experts who did not know which treatment was given?

Researchers will compare a fixed dose of VMX-C001 to the usual treatment that would be given for the required procedure.

Participants will:

* Be given either a fixed dose of VMX-C001 or usual treatment before they undergo the required procedure in theatre * Have regular clinical assessments, including laboratory tests, during their hospital stay following the procedure * Return to the clinic for a check-up and tests approximately 28 days after the procedure was conducted.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male or female patient aged ≥18 years.

The patient or legally authorised representative (LAR) has given written informed consent.

The patient requires urgent surgery/procedure for which the risk of bleeding is considered high and for which haemostasis is considered necessary.

The patient has a significant FXa DOAC level at the time of procedure.

Disqualifiers

The patient is known for any reason, other than administration of a FXa DOAC, to have an increased risk of bleeding compared to a patient in a similar clinical situation.

The patient has received any non FXa DOAC anticoagulants within 7 days of Screening or has received heparin (UFH or LMWH) within 3 days of Screening.

The patient has received any of the prespecified medications not allowed in the 7 days prior to Randomisation.

The patient was treated with an investigational drug <30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to Screening.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • VMX-C001

    Drug

    A fixed dose of VMX-C001 will be administered prior to commencement of procedure.

  • Usual Pharmacological Care

    Drug

    Usual pharmacological care should be treatment planned to restore coagulation or support haemostasis for the required procedure.

Treatment groups

800 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: VMX-C001Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Usual Pharmacological CareActive comparator 1 intervention
