Role of Candidate Proteins in Capillary Leakage During Acute Circulatory Failure

Cardiogenic ShockPostresuscitation Disease1 more

Testing the association between circulating candidate proteins and the level of vascular leakage for three distinct forms of circulatory failure: cardiogenic shock, septic shock, and post-resuscitation syndrome. Describing immuno-inflammatory profiles associated with massive vascular leakage during those three forms of circulatory failure in humans

Hemodynamic Effects of Dexmedetomidine in Septic Shock

Septic Shock

The current treatment regimen of patients with septic shock requires a sufficient hemodynamic support aiming to preserve tissue oxygen requirements and perfusion. Therefore, aggressive fluid challenge and vasopressor agents play a pivotal role. To increase total peripheral resistance and preserve organ perfusion, a continuous infusion of catecholamines is often needed. Because sepsis is usually associated with adrenergic receptor and post-receptor abnormalities, the efficacy of such treatment regimens often gradually decreases over time, thereby complicating hemodynamic support. Experimental evidence suggest that α-2 agonists increase pressor responsiveness following lipopolysaccharide administration. This study will assess the effects of the sedation with dexmedetomidine (α-2 agonist) on norepinephrine requirements in patients with septic shock.

Study the Impact of Statins in Septic Shock

Septic Shock

Sepsis is a common, expensive, frequently fatal and highly complex inflammatory syndrome wherein multiple cellular and humoral pathways are involved. Since it's a multifactorial syndrome merely blocking one of the various inflammatory pathways may not suffice to provide effective treatment and this may partly explain why most of the adjunctive therapies developed for severe sepsis have yielded disappointing results in rigorous clinical trials. Statins have varied pleiotropic effects on the inflammatory mediators and there addition to the current adjuvant therapies in septic shock may help in reduction of mortality. The present trial aims to study survival benefit and changes in bio-marker levels in septic shock. Adult patients (>=18 years) in septic shock and admitted to ICU will be included in the study. Patients will be randomized as per computer generated random number into the Drug (Atorvastatin, 40 mg) or matched placebo group. Drug or placebo will be given to selected patient via nasogastric tube for 7 days. Bio markers (Il-6, TNF-alpha) estimated during the trial week (Days 1, 4, and 7). All clinical and study personnel and patients remained blinded to the study group assignment throughout the trial.

Microcirculation After MAP Increase in Septic Shock Patients With Previous Hypertension

Septic Shock

The optimal levels of mean arterial pressure that must be achieved in septic shock are subject of debate. Studies tried to correlate blood pressure increase in patients with septic shock with microcirculation. However, there are few studies that specifically assessed septic shock patients with previous arterial hypertension. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of increased blood pressure level in the microcirculation of these patients and compare them with patients without arterial hypertension.

Ketamine Versus Fentanyl for Induction of Anesthesia in Septic Shock

Septic Shock

The aim of this work is to compare two protocols (ketamine-midazolam versus fentanyl-midazolam) for induction of anesthesia in patients with septic shock aiming to find the most safe protocol with regards to hemodynamic status of patients

Amendment of rTSST-1 Variant Vaccine Phase 1 Clinical Trial

Toxic-Shock SyndromeSepsis

Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) a severe condition with high morbidity and mortality results from the hosts overwhelming inflammatory response and cytokine storm. Staphylococcal superantigen toxins are the main causative agents. Toxic shock syndrome toxin (TSST-1) being responsible for almost all of menstruation associated and more than 50% of all other cases. There is no specific therapy. The Phase I study BioMed0713 demonstrated the safety and tolerability of the BioMed recombinant toxic shock syndrome toxin (rTSST-1) Variant Vaccine in healthy adults. The aim of this amendment is to demonstrate prolonged safety of the BioMed rTSST-1 Variant Vaccine and to assess persistence of antibodies generated in participants. The second aim of the study is to assess boosterability of the BioMed rTSST-1 Variant Vaccine.

Inhibition of Anaphylaxis by Ibrutinib

Food AllergyAnaphylaxis Food

This is a phase II open label study on the use of Ibrutinib on the inhibition of food-induced anaphylaxis in adults with food allergy. Ibrutinib (brand name Imbruvica) is currently FDA approved for the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and Waldenstrom's macroglobulineia (WM). We propose to administer this approved drug to adults with food allergy to inhibit food allergy responses.
