New treatment option for Postresuscitation Syndrome
Official title HYdrocortisone and VAsopressin in Post-RESuscitation Syndrome
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04591990
What this study is testing
What is Administration of AVP?
Administration of AVP is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for postresuscitation syndrome.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and hydrocortisone compared with norepinephrine regarding day-30 survival and neurological recovery in post-cardiac arrest patients with hemodynamic failure.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance.
