Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment, VBI-S, to see if it can increase the blood pressure of patients with septic shock who have low blood volume.

Who is the study for?
Adults at least 18 years old with septic shock and low blood pressure not improved by current fluids can join. They must have a moderate SOFA score (5-11), no improvement or high SOFA score upon ICU admission, signs of infection, fever or hypothermia, fast breathing, lactate levels above normal, and heart rate over 90.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing VBI-S's ability to raise blood pressure in patients with septic shock due to low blood volume. It's an open-label study where everyone knows what treatment they're getting and it compares VBI-S against standard treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not specified here but generally could include reactions at the infusion site, changes in heart rate or rhythm, allergic reactions, or other impacts on organ function related to changes in blood pressure.
