Conditions

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Brief summary

Lung wash with KL₄Surfactant of individual lung segments using a bronchoscope compared to usual care alone consisting primarily of assisted (mechanical) ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).

Detailed description

This is a multinational, multicenter, two-part, Phase 2 study that will evaluate the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of KL₄Surfactant in adult ARDS patients when administered by sequential bronchoscopic lavage into each of the 19 bronchopulmonary segments of the lung and as a bolus instillation into each lung.

Inclusion criteria

* Intubated and required mechanical ventilation support * Met the criteria for ARDS * Partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) ≤ 200 mmHg and ≥ 60 mmHg within 60 minutes before randomization * Mean blood pressure was ≥ 60 mmHg immediately before randomization

Exclusion criteria

* Had ARDS due solely to a major trauma * Was currently participating in another clinical trial or received an experimental drug or device within the previous month * A woman of childbearing age, unless pregnancy was excluded by a negative urine hCG test or if the subject was surgically incapable of childbearing * Had a previous episode of ARDS that resolved and then recurred during the current hospitalization * Had a disease that was sufficiently advanced, in the best judgment of the Principal Investigator, to markedly limit life expectancy to \< 6 months * Was known to have AIDS or symptomatic HIV (CD4 counts \<500). Subjects with asymptomatic HIV were not excluded * Received chemotherapy or radiation within the previous 90 days * Received an organ transplant other than corneal transplants * Received, or was currently receiving, immunosuppression therapy within the last 6 months * Had severe neurological damage or the presence of a disease that was likely to significantly prevent weaning from the ventilator * Had a best Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) of ≤ 8 or an intracranial pressure ≥ 20 cm H2O prior to the institution of sedatives or paralysis

Incidence of Patients Being Alive and Not Receiving Mechanical Ventilation for ≥48 Hours at the End of Day 28.

Time frame: Through 28 days

Population: In Part A, 5 subjects provided a reasonable cohort to adequately examine the safety of each treatment regimen.~In Part B, 30 subjects were planned to be enrolled in each treatment group (a total of 90 subjects), enough to calculate the dose response curve.~Analyses conducted on Intent-to-Treat population (all enrolled subjects).
