Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the effect of orally inhaled AP301 on alveolar liquid clearance in ALI patients with the purpose to assess the treatment associated changes of extravascular lung water (EVLW) within 7 days of treatment.;Secondary Objective: To assess: • the treatment associated changes of oxygenation as measured by the PaO2 / FiO2 ratio until day 7 of therapy, • the ventilatory plateau pressure and other ventilation parameters (Tidal volume, positive endexpiratory pressure, PIP, FiO2, respiratory rate, mean airway pressure and peak airway pressure) until day 7 of therapy, • the Murray lung injury score (a composite variable that includes components of oxygenation, compliance, positive end-expiratory pressure, and the appearance of the chest radiograph), • the duration of stay at ICU in the first 28 days, • the duration of controlled ventilation period until extubation, • number of days free from ventilatory support [for > 48 h] in the first 28 days • the survival status at day 28, • the local and systemic safety and tolerability and to identify possible dose related adverse events. ;Primary end point(s): Primary Endpoint is EVWL (measured with PiCCO® technique) between day 0 and day 7 of treatment.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: from baseline to day 7

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • Oxygenation index (PaO2 / FiO2 ratio) until day 7 of treatment • Ventilator plateau pressure until day 7 of treatment • Murray Lung Injury Score until day 7 of treatment • Ventilation parameters / lung function: tidal volume (Vt), positive endexpiratory pressure (PEEP), PIP, respiratory rate, FiO2 , meak airway pressure, peak airway pressure until day 7 of treatment • Duration of stay at ICU in the first 28 days • Duration of controlled ventilation period until extubation • Number of days free from ventilation support (for > 48 h) in the first 28 days • Survival status at day 28 • the local and systemic safety and tolerability and to identify possible dose related adverse events;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: baseline to day 7 respectively day 28 (+7)
