A Study of Cryopreserved Platelets in Treating Bleeding in Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery (CRYPTICS)

Status

Active, Recruiting

NATIONAL TRIAL REFERENCE NUMBER

Purpose

This is a Phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate safety and efficacy of cryopreserved platelets (CPP) vs. liquid stored platelets in controlling blood loss in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.

CPP are frozen platelets stabilized with Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO), which can be stored frozen for 5 years, unlike standard liquid stored platelets which can only be stored for 5 to 7 days.  Learn more about CPP

About the Trial

This objective of this trial is to compare the amount of bleeding that occurs during and after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery in patients who receive standard-of-care liquid stored platelets versus patients who receive the investigational product, CPP. Approximately 200 volunteer patients will be recruited to take part in this study at a number of locations in the United States.
