Recruiting PHASE2 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

New treatment option for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Official title Rhu-pGSN for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05947955

What this study is testing

What is Rhu-pGSN?

Rhu-pGSN is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Also referred to as recombinant human gelsolin.

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
BTI-203 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, Phase 2 proof-of-concept (POC) study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rhu-pGSN plus standard of care (SOC) in subjects with moderate-to-severe ARDS (P/F ratio ≤150) due to pneumonia or other infections. Potential subjects hospitalized with pneumonia or other infections are to be screened within 24 hours of diagnosis of ARDS.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
