About this study

Official title: Early Versus Late CRRT (Continuous Renal Replacement Therpay) in ACLF (Acute on Chronic Liver Failure) Patients With Septic Shock and AKI (Acute Kidney Injury) - A Randomized Controlled Trial

Consecutive patients with ACLF (Acute on Chronic Liver Failure) and septic shock with AKI (Acute Kidney Injury) who give written informed consent will be included in this prospective trial at ILBS. At baseline s, endotoxin levels, NT-Pro BNP, , urine N-GAL will be done for all patients. A 10 ml serum sample will be stored for doing a cytokine profile. Septic shock will be defined by the presence of two or more diagnostic criteria for the systemic inflammatory response syndrome, proven or suspected infection with hypotension non-responsive to adequate fluid resuscitation assessed by no evidence of stroke volume variation on flow track and need of a vasopressor to achieve a target mean arterial pressure (MAP) of ≥ 65 mm Hg. A record of CVP, IVC diameter and B-lines on ultrasound lung would also be done. Patients with age less than 18 years, severe known cardiopulmonary disease (structural or valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease, COPD) pregnancy, chronic kidney disease, patients already meeting emergency criteria for immediate hemodialysis at the time of randomization as specified in the late group, patients transferred from other hospitals who have already been on hemodialysis before their arrival in the intensive care unit, extremely moribund patients with an expected life expectancy of less than 24 hours, failure to give informed consent from family members.

What is being measured

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

  1. Transplant Free Survival

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Incidence of intradialytic hypotension i.e. defined as a decrease in systolic blood pressure by ≥20 mm Hg or a decrease in MAP by 10 mm Hg associated with symptoms

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Hemodynamic stability i.e. maintenance of MAP on dialysis without increase in the vasopressors

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Dialysis efficiency as measured by Urea Reduction ratio at 48 hours

    Measured: 2 days

  4. Achievement of target ultrafiltration goals

    Measured: 1 year

  5. Recovery in renal functions defined as an increase in urine output to more than 400 ml/day

    Measured: 1 year

  6. Duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU (Intensive Care Unit) stay

    Measured: 1 year

  7. Improvement in SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment ) ( by 2 points) scores

    Measured: 1 year

  8. Improvement in APACHE (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation) ( by 2 points) scores

    Measured: 1 year

  9. Improvement in MELD (Model for End Stage Liver Disease) ( by 2 points) scores

    Measured: 1 year

  10. Improvement in lactic acidosis and lactate clearance at 6 hours after initiation of CRRT

    Measured: within 6 hours

  11. Improvement in lactic acidosis and lactate clearance at 12 hours after initiation of CRRT

    Measured: within 12 hours

  12. Improvement in lactic acidosis and lactate clearance at 24 hours after initiation of CRRT

    Measured: within 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Early CRRT, Late CRRT and Standard Medical Therapy in people with Septic Shock and Acute Kidney Injury, run by Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, India at 1 site in India.

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 10 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 17 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in India. 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?

Contact Dr Rakhi Maiwall, MD,DM (01146300000, rakhi_2011@yahoo.co.in), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Transplant Free Survival (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 NCT03343340, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Nov 2017.
