About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Multinational, Randomized, Double-blind, Controlled, Dose Comparison Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of MP4OX Plus Standard Treatment, in Severely Injured Trauma Subjects With Lactic Acidosis Due to Hemorrhagic Shock

MP4OX is being developed as an ischemic rescue therapy to perfuse and oxygenate tissues at risk during hemorrhagic shock. MP4OX is a pegylated hemoglobin-based colloid designed to improve perfusion and target delivery of oxygen to ischemic tissues. This study will evaluate safety and efficacy of MP4OX treatment, in addition to standard therapy, in trauma patients suffering from lactic acidosis due to severe hemorrhagic shock.

Read the detailed description

Acute trauma, including both blunt and penetrating injury, is often associated with uncontrolled bleeding that leads to hemorrhagic shock. During shock, inadequate blood flow results in local ischemia and tissue hypoxia (insufficient oxygenation) of critical organs with resulting lactic acidosis. More than 10% of trauma victims who reach hospital alive will die, and many will suffer from organ failure. The primary goal when treating traumatic hemorrhage is to control blood loss, support ventilation and oxygenation, and maintain cardiovascular function to maintain organ perfusion.

Despite optimal care, organ dysfunction is present in many patients as evidenced by persistent lactic acidosis. Blood transfusions are intended to improve circulation of oxygen-carrying red blood cells, but are frequently insufficient, even when the hemoglobin level is optimized. The severity of lactic acidosis in trauma victims has also been shown to correlate with worse outcome.

Support for the proposed application for MP4OX as a therapeutic adjunct to standard treatment of severe hemorrhage shock, is based on multiple preclinical studies in different animal models of hemorrhagic shock resuscitation. These preclinical studies demonstrated that survival was greater and restoration of acid-base status and hemodynamics were improved with MP4OX. The benefits of MP4OX in animals were observed with or without co-administration of autologous blood, demonstrating that red cell transfusion alone was insufficient, and that the effects of MP4OX were additive.

The hypothesis for the current study is that MP4OX will enhance perfusion and oxygenation of ischemic organs and thereby prevent and reduce the duration of organ failure and improve morbidity and mortality outcome measures.

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MP4OX in people with Trauma and Hemorrhagic Shock, run by Sangart at 31 sites in 11 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Oct 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 31 sites in France, Germany, South Africa, Brazil, Israel and 6 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of subjects discharged from hospital through Day 28 and alive at the Day 28 Follow up visit (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01973504, which also lists 20 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Oct 2013.
