New treatment option for Critical Illness
Official title Use of Vasopressin in Patients at High Risk of Acute Kidney Injury Admitted to the ICU
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06547892
What this study is testing
What is Vasopressin?
Vasopressin is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for critical illness.
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
- Renal dysfunction is a frequent complication in patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs), associated with high morbidity and mortality. Current therapeutic options to prevent this condition are limited and lack robust scientific evidence.
- 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.
