Trial summary

Patients with septic shock would be screened. Following this, patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be screened and randomized to the two treatment groups. Standard criteria will be considered to define refractoriness to fluids. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Extracorporeal Cytokine Hemoadsorption in Septic Shock in Critically Ill Cirrhotics -A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

Patients with septic shock would be screened. Following this, patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be screened and randomized to the two treatment groups. Standard criteria will be considered to define refractoriness to fluids. In all patients, baseline endotoxin activity assay and blood and urine sample will be stored for looking at the effect of therapy on these factors. Septic shock would be defined as clinical construct of sepsis with persisting hypotension requiring vasopressors to maintain MAP>=65 mm of Hg and having a serum lactate >2 mmol/L despite adequate volume resuscitation. Patients assigned to the treatment arm and who do not already have access for dialysis will have a standard hemodialysis catheter inserted in one of the femoral veins by the physician. Hemoperfusion will be carried out for one session within 12 hours for all randomized patient using the adsorption columns for Jianfan Biotechnology Co., Zhuhai, China). The hemoperfusion apparatus will be connected in front of the hemodialyzer in series. The procedure would be done for 2 hours without use of heparin with use of normal saline for pipeline flushing. In patients who also require hemodialysis the dialysis would subsequently be continued. Subsequent sessions of therapy would be done for patients (if required).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Extracorporeal Cytokine hemadsorption therapy and Standard Medical Treatment in people with Septic Shock, 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 1 May 2019. 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, DM (01146300000), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reversal of shock in both groups (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 1 May 2019.
