Korábbi kezelés

• Major surgical procedures or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to randomization, or anticipation of the need for major surgical procedure during the course of the study.
• Concomitant daily use of opioids in the last 3 months including methadone prior start of study medication
• Treatment with another investigational drug or participation in another interventional trial (within the 14 days prior randomization or 5 plasma half-lifes of the used investigational drug, whatever is longer)
• Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially compromising compliance with the study protocol and the follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient prior to registration in the trial

Más betegség

• Chronic infectious diseases, immune deficiency syndromes
• Premalignant hematologic disorders, e.g. myelodysplastic syndrome
• Past or current history of malignancies except for the indication under this study and curatively treated:
  • Basal and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
  • In-situ carcinoma of the cervix
  • Other malignant disease without recurrence after at least 3 years of follow-up
• History of or evidence upon physical examination of CNS disease unless adequately treated (e.g. primary brain tumor, seizure not controlled with standard medical therapy or history of stroke).
• Evidence of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
• Subjects with known allergies to the study drugs or to any of its excipients.

Laborértékek

• Patients not receiving therapeutic anticoagulation must have an INR ≤ 1.4 or PTT ≤ 40 sec within 28 days prior to randomization. The use of full dose anticoagulants is allowed as long as the INR or PTT is within therapeutic limits (according to the medical standard in the institution)
