Testing ASI-02 for right-to-left shunt

Official title: Comparing the Safety and Efficacy of ASI-02 to Agitated Saline for Suspected Right-to-left Shunt

A Phase 3, Open-label, Multicenter, Randomized Crossover Trial Comparing the Safety and Efficacy of ASI-02 to Agitated Saline for Suspected Right-to-left Shunt

Condition: Right-To-Left ShuntSponsor: Agitated Solutions, Inc.Target enrollment: 300
  • Phase 3
  • 2 groups
  • One site, in Toronto
  • Recruiting
Toronto General, Toronto

Interventions

  • Medication

    Agitated Saline SoC

    The recommended initial dose of agitated saline SoC is approximately 10 mL of saline containing approximately 1 mL of air, per institutional policy, rapidly mixed (approximately 10-20 presses) to manufacture microbubbles. No additives are allowed to the saline, including blood, dextrose, or bacteriostatic saline.

  • Medication

    ASI-02

    Each injection shall utilize one (1) ASI-02 product connected to one (1) pre-filled 10 mL 0.9% sodium chloride (saline) syringe. The ASI-02 investigational product will be connected to a standard luer lock connector and administered in its entirety. The intravenous bolus injected dose of ASI-02 is 9 mL of saline and 1 mL of air.
