Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Efficacy of octaplasLG® administration as compared to crystalloids (standard) in patients with septic shock;Secondary Objective: Safety of octaplasLG® administration as compared to crystalloids (standard) in patients with septic shock;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoints • Change in microvascular perfusion from baseline to 6 hours after inclusion as evaluated by sidestream darkfield (SDF; MicroVision Medical, Amsterdam, The Netherlands) imaging technique. • Change in biomarkers indicative of endothelial activation and damage (sE-selectin, syndecan-1, thrombomodulin, sVE-cadherin, nucleosomes) from baseline to 6 hours after inclusion ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 hours after inclusion in the trial as compared to baseline (inclusion) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Secondary endpoints • Difference in 6 hours, 24 hours, 7, 30 and 90 day mortality between patients receiving active treatment (OctaplasLG®) and standard of care (crystalloids) • Length of stay in the ICU • Days on vasopressors • Days on ventilator • Bleeding requiring > 2 RBC / day during the first 72 hours • Severe adverse reactions, defined as symptomatic thromboembolism and TACO/TRALI during the first 72 hours. Safety endpoints • Maximal change in SOFA score from baseline to 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours as well as ICU day 7 • Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) according to RIFLE Criteria in the first 7 days • Renal replacement therapy as deemed necessary by the attending physician during the first 30 days post-randomization. • Thrombelastograph maximum amplitude (clot strength) in TEG and TEG Functional Fibrinogen (FF) at 6, 24, 48, 72 hours as compared to baseline • Disseminated intravascular coagulation score (DIC) during the first 72 hours as well as day 7;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Difference in 6 hours, 24 hours, 7, 30 and 90 day mortality between patients receiving active treatment (OctaplasLG®) and standard of care (crystalloids) Other secondary and safety endpoint during the first 72 hours and at 7 days | — |
