Authorised Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III) systemic inflammation as side-effect of heart-lung machine during cardiac surgery

RESCAP to prevent peri- and post-surgical complications in open-heart surgery.

EU CTIS ID: 2025-520551-84-00

What this study is testing

First primary endpoint Demonstrate that RESCAP® intervention reduces the time to reach stability, while at ICU. Severity of illness is assessed using the SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) score over 12 days while the patient remains in the ICU. Outcome will be compared after 72 hours in the ICU. Second primary composite endpoint Demonstrate that alkaline phosphatase reduces the incidence and extent of acute kidney injury after cardiopulmonary bypass as defined by the AKIN criteria. Rise in serum creatinine of by 0.3 mg/dl or 26 μmol/L in 48 hours/ a percentage increase in the serum creatinine concentration of ≥50 percent 10 or A drop in urine output to 0.5 ml/kg/hour for 6 hours Occurrence of acute kidney injury will be checked within 30 days and additionally after 90 after surgery.
