About this trial
This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of VBI-S in elevating the blood pressure of septic shock patients with absolute or relative hypovolemia.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Male or female at least 18 years of age.
Evidence of bacterial infection demonstrated by positive blood culture and/or a known source of infection and/or an elevated procalcitonin of ≥ 2 ng/ml.
Patient has a mean blood pressure < 65 mmHg that is unresponsive to fluids currently available on the market.
Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score ≥ 5
Disqualifiers
Patients with a ventricular assist device
Acute coronary syndrome
Pregnant
Acute bronchospasm
Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
VBI-S
DrugVBI-S is made of small particles of specific lipids called micelles and liposomes for the treatment of hypotension.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Elevation in Average Mean Arterial Pressure
The primary endpoint is defined as an elevation in average mean arterial pressure by at least 10 mmHg from baseline within 3 hours of initiation of study treatment on Day 1
Secondary outcomes
Dose of Pressor Drugs
The number of patients in whom the dose of pressor drugs could be decreased after infusion of VBI-S to maintain a mean arterial pressure of 60-65 mmHg.
Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score
Change in Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score on a scale of 0 to 24. A higher score indicates a worse outcome.
Ratio of Arterial Partial Pressure of Oxygen/Fraction of Inspired Oxygen
Change in ratio of partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood/Fraction of inspired oxygen (P/F ratio).
Arterial Oxygen Saturation
Change in arterial oxygen saturation.
Other outcomes
Adverse Drug Reactions
The number and proportion (%) of patients with treatment-emergent adverse drug reactions.
