About this study

Official title: Prospective, Non-interventional, Multi-centre Clinical Study to Assess the Clinical Validity of the HBP Assay to Predict Development of Severe Sepsis in Patients With Suspected Infection Following ED Admission

The purpose of this prospective, non-interventional, multi-centre clinical study is to assess the clinical validity of the Heparin Binding Protein (HBP) assay for indicating the presence, or outcome, of severe sepsis (including septic shock), over 72 hours, in patients with suspected infection following emergency department admission.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study is to use HBP concentration to indicate the presence, or outcome, of severe sepsis (including septic shock) at admission and to predict the outcome of severe sepsis (including septic shock) over 72 hours, in patients with suspected infection following emergency department admission.

The secondary objectives of this study are to separately evaluate the performance of HBP concentration to a) indicate the presence of severe sepsis (including severe sepsis) at admission and b) to predict the outcome of severe sepsis (including septic shock) over 72 hours, in patients with suspected infection following emergency department admission.

Further exploratory objectives include evaluating the use of HBP measurement to indicate the outcome of severe sepsis (including septic shock) in patients with suspected infection 12-24 hours after emergency department admission, to compare the use of HBP to other markers of severe infection and to evaluate whether or not different cut-off values are required for the progression and outcome measures.

Medical subject headings
Sepsis, Shock, Septic

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Measurement of plasma levels of HBP to evaluate patients with suspected infection for their risk of developing severe sepsis

    The purpose of this measurement is to assess the clinical validity of plasma levels of HBP for indicating the presence, or outcome, of severe sepsis (including septic shock), over 72 hours, in patients with suspected infection following emergency department admission. The concentration of plasma HBP will be compared to the final clinical outcome of the patient to assess the ability of the HBP level to predict clinical progression.

    Measured: 72 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sepsis and Septic Shock, run by Axis Shield Diagnostics Ltd at 5 sites in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Measurement of plasma levels of HBP to evaluate patients with suspected infection for their risk of developing severe sepsis (time frame: 72 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 9 Jan 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
