Hypovolemic shock patients will be provided the standard of care. Following randomization PMZ-2010 (0.01 mg/kg) will be administered intravenously over 1 hour in 100 mL of normal saline.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of PMZ-2010 related adverse events
The primary objective of the study is to determine incidence of drug (PMZ-2010) related adverse events.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Volume of fluid administered
Total volume of fluid administered - Mean through 48 hours
Volume of blood products administered
Total volume of blood products administered - Mean through 48 hours
Vasopressor(s) infused
Amount of total vasopressor(s) infused - Mean through 48 hours
Doses of study drug
Number of doses of study drug administered in first 48 hours post randomization
Change in systolic and diastolic blood pressure
Change in systolic and diastolic blood pressure - Mean through 48 hours
Change in blood lactate level
Change in blood lactate level - Mean through 48 hours
Change in base-deficit
Change in Base-deficit - Mean through 48 hours
Change in platelet count
Change in platelet count as part of coagulation parameters mean through 48 hours. Platelets are parts of the blood that helps the blood clot. Average platelet counts are 150,000 to 450,000 number of platelets per microliter.
Change in prothrombin time
Change in prothrombin time as part of coagulation parameters mean through 48 hours. Prothrombin time (PT) is a blood test that measures the time it takes for the blood to clot. The average time range for blood to clot is about 10 to 14 seconds.
Change in international normalized ratio (INR)
Change in international normalized ratio (INR) as part of coagulation parameters mean through 48 hours. The results of the prothrombin time test vary from laboratory to laboratory, therefore, a ratio called the international normalized ratio (INR) is calculated. It allows for differences in laboratories across the world so that test results become more relevant and can be compared. The average INR range is 0.8 to 1.1.
Change in fibrinogen
Change in fibrinogen as part of coagulation parameters mean through 48 hours. Fibrinogen is a protein, specifically a clotting factor (factor I), that is essential for proper blood clot formation. The reference range for fibrinogen is 150-400 mg/dL
Change in Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome Score
Change in Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome Score (MODS) - Mean through 28 days. MODS is a 5 grade scale from 0 to 4, where 0 is the best and 4 is the worst outcome.
Change in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Change in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) - Mean through 28 days. ARDS will be determined using Murray Score for Acute Lung Injury which is based upon radiological findings, oxygenation status, ventilation status of the patient. A lower score of 0 is the best and about 2.5 is the worst outcome.
Change in Glasgow coma score
Change in Glasgow coma score (GCS) - Mean through 28 days. GCS is a 15 point scale to assess the level of consciousness of patients where less than 3 is comatose state and 15 is fully awake.
Stay in hospital, in ICU and/or on Ventilator
Days in hospital, in ICU and/or on Ventilator - Mean through 28 days
Incidence of mortality
Proportion of patients with all-cause mortality at 48 hours and 28 days

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a prospective, multi-centric, randomized, double-blind, parallel, controlled phase-II efficacy clinical study of PMZ-2010 therapy in patients with hypovolemic shock. Centhaquine is highly safe and well tolerated. Toxicological studies showed high safety margin in preclinical studies. Its safety and tolerability has been demonstrated in a human phase I study in 25 subjects (CTRI/2014/06/004647; NCT02408731).
Detailed Description
Centhaquine (previously used names, centhaquin and PMZ-2010; International Non-proprietary Name (INN) recently approved by WHO is centhaquine) has been found to be an effective resuscitative agent in rat, rabbit and swine models of hemorrhagic shock, it decreased blood lactate, increased mean arterial pressure, cardiac output, and decreased mortality. An increase in cardiac output during resuscitation is mainly attributed to an increase in stroke volume. Centhaquine acts on the venous α2B-adrenergic receptors and enhances venous return to the heart, in addition, it produces arterial dilatation by acting on central α2A-adrenergic receptors to reduce sympathetic activity and systemic vascular resistance. Unlike presently used vasopressors, centhaquine increased mean arterial pressure by increasing stroke volume and cardiac output, and it decreased systemic vascular resistance. The most common adverse effects of vasopressors as a class include arrhythmias, fluid extravasation, and ischemia. Centhaquine does NOT act on beta-adrenergic receptors, and therefore the risk of arrhythmias is mitigated. It is NOT a vasopressor; however, it increases blood pressure and cardiac output by augmenting venous blood return to the heart and enhanced tissue perfusion by arterial dilatation. Enhancing tissue perfusion is a significant advantage over existing vasopressors.
