About this study

Official title: The Effect of Intravenous Lipid Emulsions on Lung Function in ARDS: A Pilot Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of nutritional supplementation with omega-9 "olive-oil" and omega-6 "soybean oil" based lipid emulsions in the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The investigators hypothesize that these specific lipids in combination will immunomodulate the inflammatory reaction that occurs in the lungs of ARDS subjects. This concept is known as "Pharmaconutrition." These lipids will be given intravenously so as to assure administration and only as a supplement to enteral nutrition which all subjects will also receive. The omega-9 will be compared to the omega-6 formulation which is the only FDA approved formulation of use in the United States since its development in 1961 by Fresenius-Kabi, Bad Homburg, Germany. The investigators plan to perform a bronchoscopy with lavage within 24 hours of enrollment, begin the lipid administration and continue it for 96 hours after which time the investigators will repeat bronchoscopy with lavage to assess changes. The lipid administration will cease following the second bronchoscopy. The fluid obtained from lavage combined with serum samples obtained at the time of bronchoscopy will be analyzed for inflammatory mediators and cell counts. Clinical data tracing will include but not be limited to: ventilator days, nutritional status, ICU time, oxygenation and lung compliance, and 30-day mortality.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Interleukin-8 Concentrations

    Measured: 96 hours

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Ventilator Days

    Measured: 30 days

  2. PaO2:FiO2 Ratio

    PaO2:FiO2 ratio at time of 2nd Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL) or end of study drug administration.

    Measured: 4 days

  3. 30 Day Mortality

    Measured: 30 days

  4. New Infection

    We will use standard clinical criteria including but not limited to: fever, pyuria, new inflitrate on chest x-ray, positive blood cultures, abscess detected on imaging, leukocytosis, and positive skin or soft-tissue cultures to identify presence of new bacterial infections occurring after enrollment.

    Measured: 30 days

    Measured: 30 days

  6. Biomarkers (C-reactive Protein)

    Measured: 96 hours

  7. Hospital Length of Stay

    Measured: 30 days

  8. Allergic Reactions

    Measured: 96 hours

  9. Hypertriglyceridemia

    Defined as triglyceride level >400

    Measured: 96 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ClinOleic 20% and Intralipid 20% in people with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by Methodist Research Institute, Indianapolis 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 6 inclusion and 14 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 26 May 2014. 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 26 May 2014). 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?

Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Interleukin-8 Concentrations (time frame: 96 hours). 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 26 May 2014.
