Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The patients undergoing ECMO will be invited to participate. At least 2-12 subjects will be enrolled to build a pharmacokineic model for each drug, and 1-4 subjects for external validation for each drug. The investigators plan to study the sedatives, analgesics and antibiotics with the initial sample size at 36 in total.

Who may be able to join

  • Patient given the sedatives, analgesics and antibiotics of interest during ECMO.
  • Age from 18 to 85 years old.
  • Multiple blood sampling is acceptable.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who are allergic to the investigated drugs.
  • Patients who are pregnant.

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics of the Sedatives, Analgesics and Antibiotics in Patients Receiving Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO)

It is a multi-center, open-label, observational study aimed to understand the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the commonly used sedative, analgesic and antibiotic drugs in adult patients supported with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), by measuring the plasma concentrations and the clinical effect of dexmedetomidine, midazolam, butorphanol, remifentanil, sufentanil, propofol, linezolid, tigecycline, teicoplanin, caspofungin, voriconazole and meropenem.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • The Sedatives, analgesics and antibioticsDrug

    The sedatives (dexmedetomidine, midazolam, propofol), analgesics (butorphanol, remifentanil, sufentanil), and six antibiotics (linezolid, voriconazole, tigecycline, teicoplanin, caspofungin and meropenem) will be used according to the clinical need.

Study groups in NCT03787550
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Model building groupThe data from the patients in the model building group will be used to build the population PK/PD model. Two to six blood samples will be collected during at least one dose interval at the steady-state, including one sample from the start of ECMO and one at the end of ECMO.
Receives: Drug: The Sedatives, analgesics and antibiotics
Model validation groupThe data from the patients in the model building group will be used to build the population PK/PD model. Two to three blood samples will be collected during at least one dose interval at the steady-state, including one sample from the start of ECMO and one at the end of ECMO.
Receives: Drug: The Sedatives, analgesics and antibiotics

What is being measured

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

  1. Minimum Plasma Concentration [Cmin]

    The minimum plasma concentration (the trough concentration), usually collected before the next dose.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours.

  2. Area Under the Curve [AUC]

    The area under the curve during the dose interval. It also can be calculated by the dose and the clearance of the drug.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours.

  3. Maximum Plasma Concentration [Cmax]

    The maximum plasma concentration, usually at the end of the infusion during an dose interval.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. ICU mortality

    The intensive care unit (ICU) mortality is calculated as the number of deaths of the enrolled patients admitted to the ICU, divided by the number of the enrolled patient discharges from the ICU (including deaths and transfers), and often presented as percentage.

    Measured: Up to 60 days.

  2. Hospital mortality

    The hospital mortality is calculated as the number of deaths of the enrolled patients divided by the number of the total enrolled patient, and often presented as percentage.

    Measured: Up to 60 days.

  3. Mechanical ventilation duration

    Mechanical ventilation duration is the length of days the patients on the mechanical ventilation.

    Measured: Up to 60 days.

  4. ICU length of stay (LOS)

    ICU length of stay (LOS) is the length of days the patients in the ICU.

    Measured: Up to 60 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Drug Effect, run by Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital at 3 sites in China.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Chunbo Chen, Ph. D. (+86-20-83827812 ext. 51157, gghccm@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Minimum Plasma Concentration [Cmin] (time frame: Up to 24 hours.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Feb 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
