简要总结
The norepinephrine and vasopressin for rescue versus early vasopressin for vasopressor dependent sepsis (NoVa) is a phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial comparing an early vasopressin initiation strategy versus norepinephrine plus vasopressin initiation only as a rescue strategy for hemodynamic management of critically ill patients with vasopressor dependent sepsis.
详细描述
Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated body response to infection. Its most severe form, septic shock, occurs when underlying circulatory and cellular metabolic abnormalities are pronounced, indicating greater severity and higher mortality. Vasopressor use is a cornerstone aspect in the treatment of critically ill patients with sepsis-associated hemodynamic dysfunction, with norepinephrine, a catecholamine, being the vasopressor of choice.
Vasopressin is an endogenous peptide hormone with potential advantages over norepinephrine in a catecholamine-sparing strategy for treating sepsis-associated hemodynamic dysfunction.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial. Adult patients with sepsis-associated hemodynamic dysfunction in the ICU may be eligible to participate. We aim to enroll 2,800 patients.

研究组 & 干预措施
Early Vasopressin
After randomization, vasopressin will be initiated and titrated up to 0.04U/min to maintain the target mean arterial pressure (MAP). Concurrently, norepinephrine will be reduced, with the goal of using the maximum dose of vasopressin and minimizing or eliminating the use of norepinephrine, while still maintaining the target MAP.
干预措施: Early Vasopressin (Drug)
Norepinephrine plus vasopressin for rescue
After randomization, norepinephrine will be titrated to maintain the target MAP. Vasopressin will be introduced as a rescue strategy only if the norepinephrine dose exceeds 0.5 μg/kg/min. Once vasopressin is initiated, it can be titrated up to 0.04U/min to help maintain the target MAP if the norepinephrine dose remains above 0.5 μg/kg/min.
