How it works

During the coagulation process, thrombin cleaves the Aα and Bβ chains releasing fibrinopeptides A and B (FPA and FPB, respectively). 2 FPA is separated rapidly and the remaining molecule is a soluble fibrin monomer (fibrin I). The slower removal of FPB results in formation of fibrin II that is capable of polymerization that occurs by aggregation of fibrin monomers. 2 The resulting fibrin is stabilized in the presence of calcium ions and by activated factor XIII, which acts as a transglutaminase. Factor XIIIa-induced cross-linking of fibrin polymers renders the fibrin clot more elastic and more resistant to fibrinolysis. 3 Cross-linked fibrin is the end result of the coagulation cascade, and provides tensile strength to a primary hemostatic platelet plug and structure to the vessel wall.

Dosing overview

For intravenous use only. Dose (mg/kg body weight) = [Target level (mg/dL) - measured level (mg/dL)] 1.7 (mg/dL per mg/kg body weight) Dose when fibrinogen level is unknown: 70 mg/kg body weight. Monitoring of patient's fibrinogen level is recommended during treatment. A target fibrinogen level of 100 mg/dL should be maintained until hemostasis is obtained. Injection rate should not exceed 5 mL per minute.

Warnings and precautions

Monitor patients for early signs of anaphylaxis or hypersensitivity reactions and if necessary, discontinue administration and institute appropriate treatment. Thrombotic events have been reported in patients receiving RIASTAP. Weigh the benefits of administration versus the risks of thrombosis. Because RIASTAP is made from human blood, it may carry a risk of transmitting infectious agents, e.g., viruses, the variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) agent and, theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent.

Side effects

The most serious adverse reactions reported in clinical studies or through postmarketing surveillance following RIASTAP treatment are thromboembolic episodes, including myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, arterial thrombosis, and allergic-anaphylactic reactions. The most common adverse reactions observed in more than one subject in clinical trials (frequency >1%) were fever and headache. The most serious adverse reactions observed are thrombotic episodes (pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis) and anaphylactic reactions. The most common adverse reactions observed in clinical studies (frequency >1%) were fever and headache.

Storage

When stored at temperatures of 2-8°C (36-46°F), RIASTAP is stable for the period indicated by the expiration date on the carton and vial label (up to 60 months). Do not freeze. Protect from light.
