ARC1779 Injection in Patients With Von Willebrand Factor-Related Platelet Function Disorders

Initial stepwise infusion of 0.23 mg/kg given over 30 minutes and subsequent continuous infusion of an additional 0.24 mg/kg given over 4 hours at a rate of 0.001 mg/kg/min.

Initial stepwise infusion of 0.23 mg/kg given over 30 minutes and subsequent continuous infusion of an additional 1.44 mg/kg given over 24 hours at a rate of 0.001 mg/kg/min.

Initial stepwise infusion of 0.46 mg/kg over 30 minutes and subsequent continuous infusion of an additional 2.88 mg/kg given over 24 hours at a rate of 0.002 mg/kg/min.

"Initial stepwise infusion of 0.23 mg/kg given over 30 minutes and subsequent continuous infusion of an additional 1.44 mg/kg given over 24 hours at a rate of 0.001 mg/kg/min to produce a target plasma concentration of 6 mcg/mL.~Continuous infusion of ARC1779 Injection may continue for ≤ 14 days. After initial 24 hours dose may be titrated to achieve a target plasma concentration of 12 mcg/mL as needed, on the basis of clinical and laboratory data, according to the Investigator's judgment."

In one period of the sequence, ARC1779 will be administered to all subjects as a stepwise infusion of 0.23 mg/kg over 30 minutes and subsequent continuous infusion of an additional 0.24 mg/kg given over 4 hours at a rate of 0.001 mg/kg/min in combination with a dummy 30-minute infusion of placebo. In another period, subjects will receive a single infusion of desmopressin at a dose of 0.4 mcg/kg given over 30 minutes in combination with a dummy 30-minute stepwise infusion followed by 4-hour continuous infusion of placebo. In the one other period, subjects will receive the combination of desmopressin at a dose of 0.4 mcg/kg given over 30 minutes and ARC1779 given as a stepwise infusion of 0.23 mg/kg over 30 minutes and subsequent continuous infusion of an additional 0.24 mg/kg given over 4 hours at a rate of 0.001 mg/kg/min
