| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Objective: - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of eritoran in pediatric subjects with severe sepsis - To determine the effects of eritoran on the following parameters in pediatric subjects with severe sepsis: - 28-day all cause mortality - duration of intensive care unit (ICU) and total hospital stay within 28 days - time to resolution of organ dysfunction ;Main Objective: - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of eritoran in pediatric subjects with severe sepsis.; Primary end point(s): - PK endpoint is plasma endotoxin levels as measured by HPLC - PD endpoint is ability to block endotoxin activation by LPS in an ex vivo assay | — |
