About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial Comparing the Safety and Effectiveness of SURFAXIN® (Lucinactant) Delivered Via Bronchopulmonary Segmental Lavage to Standard of Care in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).

Lung wash with KL₄Surfactant of individual lung segments using a bronchoscope compared to usual care alone consisting primarily of assisted (mechanical) ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).

Read the detailed description

This is a multinational, multicenter, two-part, Phase 2 study that will evaluate the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of KL₄Surfactant in adult ARDS patients when administered by sequential bronchoscopic lavage into each of the 19 bronchopulmonary segments of the lung and as a bolus instillation into each lung.

Being tested
A.1 Lucinactant, B.3 SoC, A.2 Lucinactant, A.3 Lucinactant, A.4 Lucinactant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing A.1 Lucinactant, B.3 SoC and A.2 Lucinactant in people with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by Windtree Therapeutics at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Apr 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of Patients Being Alive and Not Receiving Mechanical Ventilation for ≥48 Hours at the End of Day 28. (time frame: Through 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Aug 2018.
