Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Bilateral radiologic opacities consistent with pulmonary edema on the frontal chest x-ray (CXR), or bilateral ground glass opacities on a chest computerized tomography (CT) scan
Respiratory failure not fully explained by cardiac failure or fluid overload
Must not have
Severe chronic renal dysfunction: eGFR (MDRD) < 30 mL/min/1.73m2 or End Stage Renal Disease on renal replacement therapy
Evidence of gastrointestinal (GI) dysmotility e.g., due to acute pancreatitis or immediate post-op state, as demonstrated by persistent gastric distention, enteral feeding intolerability and/or persistent gastric residuals >500 ml
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up at days 2, 3, 7, 14 (if still intubated)

Summary

This trial will evaluate the effectiveness of a drug to improve lung injury & inflammation and help patients recover from ARDS. It will also assess the drug's safety.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with moderate to severe ARDS, mechanically ventilated, and a specific oxygenation criterion. They must have been in the hospital for less than a week and not be likely to die within 24 hours or need extensive life support soon. Women of childbearing age must use contraception.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing reparixin's effectiveness in improving lung function and reducing inflammation compared to a placebo in adults with ARDS. It also assesses safety and aims to help patients wean off mechanical ventilation sooner.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions similar to those seen with NSAIDs since reparixin belongs to this drug class. These could involve digestive issues, risk of bleeding, kidney problems, or allergic reactions among others.
