Trial summary

In sepsis, the body is prone to coagulation system disorders, which may progress to sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC). When SIC is persistent and cannot be corrected, it often sequentially develops into disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) with multiple organ failure. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Impact of Nafamostat Mesylate on the Prognosis of Patients With Sepsis-Induced Coagulopathy Undergoing Hemofiltration:A Single-Center, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial

In sepsis, the body is prone to coagulation system disorders, which may progress to sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC). When SIC is persistent and cannot be corrected, it often sequentially develops into disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) with multiple organ failure. Nafamostat mesylate can be used as an anticoagulant during blood purification in critically ill patients and is also used to treat SIC.Safe and effective anticoagulation is a prerequisite for the success of blood purification therapy. For patients with active bleeding or at risk of bleeding, how to achieve extracorporeal anticoagulation without affecting the body's coagulation function is a major clinical challenge. Nafamostat mesylate can reduce the risk of bleeding during blood purification, but its impact on the survival outcomes of patients with SIC undergoing blood purification therapy remains unclear.The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of nafamostat mesylate treatment on the prognosis of patients with sepsis-induced coagulopathy undergoing hemofiltration.

Study groups in NCT06994312
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Nafamostat Mesylate GroupExperimentalNafamostat mesylate (50 mg/vial, Jiangsu DuRui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) is dissolved and prepared with 5% glucose injection solution. It is continuously infused through the anticoagulant injection tube at the start of hemofiltration, with an initial dose generally ranging from 20 to 50 mg/h. Monitoring is performed before treatment and within 2 to 4 hours after the start of treatment. In cases of active bleeding, moderate to high bleeding risk, hypercoagulable state, or high-dose use of nafamostat mesylate (NM), the monitoring frequency should be increased (e.g., every 4 to 6 hours). After the treatment becomes stable, the monitoring interval can be extended to 12 to 24 hours. The activated clotting time (ACT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) at the post-dialyzer or venous end should be maintained at 1.5 to 2.5 times the pre-treatment level, or the ACT should be maintained between 150 and 250 seconds, and the APTT between 50 and 70 seconds.
Receives: Drug: Nafamostat Mesylate
Sodium Citrate GroupActive comparatorPatients were continuously infused with sodium citrate (200 ml/bag, Chengdu Qingshanlikang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.). The initial pump rate of 4% sodium citrate was set at 2.1% of the blood flow rate, and the initial pump rate of 10% calcium gluconate was set at 7.3% of the flow rate of 4% sodium citrate. Adjust the doses of sodium citrate and calcium gluconate based on the levels of ionized calcium in arterial and venous blood gases.The goal is to maintain arterial blood ionized calcium levels at 1.00-1.20 mmol/L and venous blood ionized calcium levels at 0.21-0.40 mmol/L.
Receives: Drug: sodium citrate

What is being measured

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

  1. ICU Mortality Rates

    The proportion of patients who died during the ICU stay out of the total number of patients in the group.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Average Filter Lifespan

    The total sum of all filter usage times for each patient divided by the number of filters used.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. ICU length of stay

    Length of Stay in the ICU

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. 28-day mortality

    The proportion of patients who died within 28 days out of the total number of patients in the group.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. Incidence of Bleeding

    The proportion of patients experiencing bleeding events (such as cerebral hemorrhage, gastrointestinal bleeding, etc.) during the ICU stay out of the total number of patients.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nafamostat Mesylate and sodium citrate in people with Sepsis-induced Coagulopathy (SIC), run by The First Hospital of Jilin University.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

ICU Mortality Rates (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 29 May 2025.
