研究概览
简要总结
In this trial, patients with severe sepsis and low protein C levels will receive drotrecogin alfa (activated) at the normal, approved dose and time of administration [24 microgram/kilogram/hour (mcg/kg/hour) for 96 hours] or will receive the normal, approved dose or higher doses than the approved dose for a longer administration time. After the drug administration is complete, the protein C levels from the patients receiving the normal, approved dose will be compared to protein C levels from patients receiving the normal, approved dose or higher dose for a longer duration to determine if the protein C levels improve faster if given higher dose and/or longer administration time.
Note: The protocol was amended to remove the option of shorter infusion durations.

结局指标
主要结局
Mean Change in Protein C Levels From Day 1 to Day 7
时间窗: Day 1, Day 7
Mean change in protein C from Study Day 1 to Study Day 7 was tested using an unadjusted two-sample t-test with a two-sided alpha of 0.05. To be included in the primary analysis, Intention-to-Treat (ITT) patients must have at least 1 protein C value available at 24 hours or earlier and at least 1 protein C value at a post-24-hour timepoint.
次要结局
- Mean Change in Protein C Level From Study Day 1 to Study Day 7 in Patients With Moderate and Severe Protein C Deficiency(Day 1, Day 7)
- Day 28 All-Cause Mortality(Day 0 through Day 28)
- Hospital Mortality (up to Day 90)(Day 0 to hospital discharge or Day 90)
- 28-Day Time Averaged Sequential Organ Failure (SOFA) Score(Day 0, Day 28)
- Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAE) and Serious Bleeding Events (SBE) by Time Period(Day 0 through Day 28)
- Mortality by Protein C Normalized Versus Not-normalized(28 days)
