Summary

Study to Investigate the Effect of Aprotinin of Transfusion Requirements in Patients Undergoing Surgical Procedures for Lung or Esophageal Cancer.

Conditions

  • Blood Loss, Surgical

Interventions

DRUG

Trasylol (Aprotinin, BAYA0128)

Subjects successfully meeting all screening criteria will be randomized to receive an infusion of aprotinin (a test dose followed by a loading dose of 2 million KIU before skin incision followed by 500,000 KIU/hour until the end of surgery) or matching placebo. The aprotinin was supplied in infusion vials of 200mL solution containing 2,000,000 KIU (10,000 KIU/mL) in 0.9% sodium chloride. Subjects will be stratified into one of the 4 following strata: * Stratum 1: complete primary pneumonectomy * Stratum II: decortication or completion pneumonectomy * Stratum III: esophagectomy by transhiatal approach * Stratum IV: esophagectomy by transthoracic approach

DRUG
