- Analyze the effect of HA versus (NaCl 0.9%) administration on the probability of AKI resolution among patients with decompensated cirrhosis and AKI 1B or greater acute kidney injury (AKI) clinical efficacy of HA versus saline (NaCl 0.9%) administration in patients with AKI 1B or higher will be evaluated, defining AKI resolution as the percentage of patients with a decrease in serum creatinine levels < 0.3 mg/dL with respect to baseline serum creatinine, without the need for TRT.

入选标准
- •Age ≥ 18 years old.
- •Cirrhosis defined by standard clinical criteria, ultrasonographic findings and/or histology. (Cirrhosis of any etiology may be included).
- •Patients with AKI 1B or greater, defined according to EASL guidelines (EASL. J Hepatol 2018).
- •Women of child-bearing potential* must have a negative pregnancy test in serum before the inclusion in the study and agree to use highly effective contraceptive methods during the study. Highly effective contraceptive methods will include: intrauterine device, bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomized partner and sexual abstinence** (only if refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the period of twelve months). Hormonal contraceptive methods will be avoided due to the risk of adverse events and impairment of liver function. * A woman will be considered of childbearing potential, following menarche and until becoming post-menopausal unless permanently sterile. Permanent sterilization methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral oophorectomy. A postmenopausal state is defined as 0 menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. A high follicle stimulating hormone level in the postmenopausal range may be used to confirm a postmenopausal state in women not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy. However, in the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea, a single follicle stimulating hormone measurement is insufficient. ** Sexual abstinence should only be used as a contraceptive method if it is in line with the subjects’ usual and preferred lifestyle. Periodic abstinence (calendar, symptothermal, postovulation methods) is not an acceptable method of contraception
排除标准
- •Time since AKI diagnosis > 24 hours.
- •Patients with current extra hepatic malignancies including solid tumors and hematologic disorders.
- •Patients included in other clinical trials in the month before inclusion
- •Patients with mental incapacity, language barrier, bad social support or any other reason considered by the investigator precluding adequate understanding, cooperation or compliance in the study.
- •Refusal to give informed consent
- •Patients with AKI due to fluid loss. According to guidelines, these patients should receive crystalloid solutions (i.e. NaCl 0.9%) and will be excluded from the study. Fluid losses will be specifically assessed by an accurate anamnesis. If patient's diuretic treatment has been increased recently (within prior 2 weeks), or the patient had diarrhea before admission, patient will be considered that the AKI phenotype is pre-renal and will be excluded from the analysis.
- •Patients with AKI due to gastrointestinal bleeding with AKI 1B or greater, and hemoglobin < 7.0 g/dL. These patients can be included after 48 hours without rebleeding and Hb > 8.0 g/dL, and still present AKI 1B or greater.
- •Patients who had already received albumin at the time of inclusion/exclusion criteria assessment
- •Patients with Chronic kidney disease grade 3a or higher, defined as glomerular filtration rate <60ml/min for three months and markers of kidney damage (one or more): Albuminuria (Albumin excretion rate > 30 mg/24h; Albumin-to-creatinine ratio > 30 mg/g), Urine sediment abnormalities, Electrolyte and other abnormalities due to tubular disorders, Abnormalities detected by histology or Structural abnormalities detected by imaging
- •Patients under renal replacement therapy, or with urgent criteria of RRT.
- •Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma beyond Milan criteria.
- •Patients with severe extrahepatic comorbidities, including congestive heart failure New York Heart Association Grade III/IV, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease group 2 or higher.
- •Previous liver and/or kidney transplantation

主要结局
Analyze the effect of HA versus (NaCl 0.9%) administration on the probability of AKI resolution among patients with decompensated cirrhosis and AKI 1B or greater acute kidney injury (AKI) clinical efficacy of HA versus saline (NaCl 0.9%) administration in patients with AKI 1B or higher will be evaluated, defining AKI resolution as the percentage of patients with a decrease in serum creatinine levels < 0.3 mg/dL with respect to baseline serum creatinine, without the need for TRT.

次要结局
- Survival rate at 28 days, considering liver transplantation as a competitive risk event
- AKI improvement, defined as the percentage of patients who decrease at least 1 grade of AKI classification (from 3 to 2, from 2 to 1B, and from 1B to 1A or recovery), without the need for RRT
- Proportion of patients requiring RRT In both groups
- Changes from baseline in systemic inflammatory response, evaluated by measurement in a large array of plasma cytokine levels including, but not limited to TNFα, IL-6, IL8, IL-10, IL-1β, IFN-ɣ, G-CSF, VCAM, VEGF, as well as an oxidized form of albumin, human nonmercaptalbumin-2 (HNA2) at visits 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6
- Changes from baseline in different plasma and urine prognostic biomarkers including, but not only, copeptin, NGAL, PD-L1, L-FABP at visits 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6.
- Changes from baseline in systemic hemodynamics and vasoactive hormones: plasma renin concentration and plasma copeptin at visits 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6,
- Changes in echocardiographic parameters (E/E', ITV, among others) at visit 1, 2, 7 and 28.
- Proportion of patients and severity of treatment-related adverse events during the study period
