Brief summary

The purpose of this placebo-controlled study is to determine if drotrecogin alfa (activated) treatment provides significant mortality reduction improvement in patients with septic shock compared with placebo treatment in patients receiving the current standard of care for septic shock. This study will also assess the effectiveness of drotrecogin alfa (activated) in reducing 28-day mortality in patients with septic shock and concomitant severe protein C deficiency.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With Serious Bleeding Events Within System Organ Class Any Time From Baseline Through Day 28Baseline through Day 28Percentage of participants who experienced serious bleeding events are reported by System Organ Class (SOC) term based on MedDRA 14.0. For a bleeding to qualify as a serious event, it would have to meet the standard definition of a serious adverse event or be a central nervous system bleeding or a bleeding event that lead to administration of ≥3 units packed red blood cells/day for 2 consecutive days.
