Phase 2b Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of TIN816 in Sepsis-associated Acute Kidney Injury (CLEAR-AKI)
RECRUITING
18 years to 85 years old
Inclusion Criteria:
• Signed informed consent must be obtained in accordance with local regulations.
• ≥ 18 to ≤ 85 years of age
• Admitted to ICU or intermediate care unit/ high dependency care unit (HDU)
• Diagnosis of sepsis according to criteria defined by The Third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis and Septic Shock (Sepsis-3) based on: * Suspected or confirmed infection AND * Acute increase of SOFA score of 2 or more (excluding renal component). The baseline SOFA score should be assumed to be zero unless the participant is known to have pre-existing (acute or chronic) organ dysfunction before the onset of infection
• Diagnosis of AKI Stage 1 or greater per the following criterion at randomization: An absolute increase in serum or plasma creatinine by ≥ 0.3 mg/dL (≥ 26.5 µmol/L) within 48 hours or presumed to have occurred in the previous 48 hours as compared to the reference serum creatinine. * For participants with hospital-acquired AKI, a stable serum creatinine obtained in the hospital prior to AKI diagnosis should be used as the reference serum creatinine. * For participants presenting from community, the reference serum creatinine should be estimated using the following order of preference:
• The most recent value within 3 months of the hospital admission. If not available:
• The most recent value between 3 and 12 months prior to hospital admission. If not available:
• At hospital admission Exclusion criteria
• Not expected to survive for 24 hours
• Not expected to survive for 30 days due to medical conditions other than SA-AKI
• History of CKD with a documented estimated GFR \<30 mL/min prior to admission to hospital
• eGFR \<45mL/min at admission without any other reference serum eGFR within last 12-months
• Receiving RRT or a decision has been made to initiate RRT within 24 hours after randomization
• Weight is less than 40 kg or more than 125 kg.
• Limitations to the use of mechanical ventilation, RRT or vasopressors/inotropes (N.B. limitations on Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)e.g., do-not-resuscitate orders are not an exclusion criterion unless associated with likely poor outcome in next 24 hours)
• Sepsis diagnosis according to sepsis inclusion criteria for a period longer than 72 hours prior to ICU admission
• AKI diagnosis according to AKI inclusion criteria over 48 hours after admission to ICU
• Inability to administer study drug within 24 hours of diagnosis of AKI according to AKI inclusion criteria
• Presence of AKI, in the Investigator's opinion, as suggested by clinical manifestation, e.g., prolonged oliguria or severe renal dysfunction on admission without a history of CKD, for a period longer than 24 hours prior to study drug administration
• Evidence of recovery from AKI based on the investigator's clinical judgement prior to randomization
• AKI is most likely attributable to other causes than sepsis, such as nephrotoxic drugs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), contrast, aminoglycosides, etc.) or renal perfusion-related (acute abdominal aortic aneurysm, dissection, renal artery stenosis), urinary obstruction
• Documented (biopsy proven) or suspected history of acute or sub-acute kidney diseases such as rapidly progressive glomerular nephritis (RPGN) and acute interstitial nephritis (AIN)
• Patients who are post-nephrectomy
• Patients with permanent incapacitation
• Patients who are thrombocytopenic at screening (platelet count \<50,000 per microliter) who have active/uncontrolled bleeding or who present current or past conditions indicating high risk for bleeding in the opinion of the investigator (e.g. coagulopathies, previous history of major non-traumatic bleeding etc.)
• Immunosuppressed patients * History of immunodeficiency diseases * Receiving immunosuppressant treatment or on chronic high doses (high-dose therapy exceeding 2 weeks of treatment) of steroids equivalent to prednisone/prednisolone 0.5 mg/kg/day, including solid organ transplant patients. Patients with septic shock treated with corticosteroids (as per the Surviving Sepsis Guidelines) can be included.
• Patients with known or presumed latent or active TB based on clinical history or imaging e.g. patients on TB preventive therapy or close/household contacts of pulmonary TB patients
• Known active hepatitis B or C infection (clinical diagnosis or positive infection serology), or advanced chronic liver disease, confirmed by a Child-Pugh score of 10-15 (Class C)
• Acute pancreatitis with no established source of infection
• Active hematological malignancy (previous hematological malignancies that are not actively treated are allowable)
• Burns requiring ICU treatment
• Sepsis attributed to confirmed COVID-19
• Use of other investigational drugs within 5 half-lives of enrollment, within 30 days (e.g., small molecules) or until the expected pharmacodynamic effect has returned to baseline (e.g., biologics), whichever is longer; or longer if required by local regulations
• History of hypersensitivity to the study treatment or its excipients or to drugs of similar chemical classes
• Any medical conditions that could significantly increase risk of participants' safety by participating in this study according to investigator's judgement
• Women with a positive pregnancy test, pregnancy or breast feeding
• Women of childbearing potential, unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception for the entire duration of the trial.
