Brief Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study to evaluate the effect of centhaquine on cardiovascular parameters in patients with hypovolemic shock.After obtaining institutional ethics committee clearance and written informed consent, patients fulfilling the eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the study.20 eligible patients diagnosed with hypovolemic shock with systolic arterial blood pressure ≤ 90 mmHg at presentation, will be allotted into two groups of 10 each and randomly assigned in 1:1 ratio to receive either centhaquine 0.003mg/kg (Group 1) or placebo (Group 2). They will be treated for a total of 24 hours. 3 doses of 0.003mg/kg centhaquine or placebo at 4 hours of intervals along with standard of care (SOC) will be administered. • Group 1: Centhaquine (Dose: 0.003 mg/kg x 3 doses per day) + Standard of care• Group 2: Placebo (Dose: equal volume saline) + Standard of careIn both treatment groups, subjects will be provided with standard of care. Centhaquine or placebo will be administered intravenously after randomization to hypovolemic shock subjects with systolic arterial blood pressure ≤ 90 mmHg at presentation and continue to receive standard treatment of shock. In the centhaquine group, three doses of centhaquine (0.003 mg/kg) at 4 hours of intervals will be administered as an intravenous infusion over 1 hour in 100 mL normal saline. Placebo group will be administered equal volume of normal saline as an intravenous (IV) infusion over 1 hour. Condition of administration will remain same as for centhaquine group. All subjects will be closely monitored during and after infusion. Vital signs will be monitored every 10 minutes during infusion. In the event of worsening hemodynamics or respiratory status, the infusion will be discontinued. Each subject will also be monitored closely throughout his/her hospitalization and will be followed until discharge from randomization. Each subject will be assessed for cardiovascular parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, mean arterial pressure and stroke volume. Adverse events will be monitored for safety parameters
