简要总结
This is a single-centre, randomised-controlled, open-label, feasibility study to assess the safety, tolerability and performance of the NucleoCapture extracorporeal apheresis device in the reduction of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA)/Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.
详细描述
This study investigates the safety, tolerability and performance of the NucleoCapture extracorporeal apheresis device in patients with acute pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis is one of the leading gastrointestinal disorders that require urgent clinical care and is increasing in incidence.
cfDNA/NET therapeutic apheresis with NucleoCapture is indicated for the treatment of diseases in which excessive levels of cfDNA/NETs are found, such as acute pancreatitis. Participants will be randomised to receive either standard of care (SOC) alone or SOC plus NucleoCapture treatment. SOC will be according to the current guidelines described by the European Society of Intensive Medicine (ESICM). Participants in the SOC plus NucleoCapture arm will receive one treatment session with NucleoCapture per day, for the first three days. Each treatment session with NucleoCapture will last for up 6 hours, aiming to treat 4.5 plasma volumes. Treatment sessions with NucleoCapture treating less than 3.5 plasma volumes will be counted as incomplete and the treatment session will be repeated on the following day, up to day 5 maximum.
Assessments will take place for all participants whilst in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on days 1 to 5, 7, 14, 21 and 28, and at 90 days post discharge to ward-based care. Participants transferred to ward-based care before day 28 will receive no further study assessment visits from the point of transfer to ward-based care, apart from day 28 in which participants will receive a final study assessment visit and a patient reported outcome assessment (PROM) 90 days post discharge to ward-based care.

入选标准
- •Adult patients aged 18 or over
- •Acute pancreatitis (following revised Atlanta definition of 2 out of typical pain, serum amylase >3x normal range and/or CT/MRI imaging consistent with pancreatitis)
- •Any aetiology
- •Acute respiratory (PaO2/FiO2 <300), cardiovascular (systolic BP <90 or any inotropic therapy) or renal failure (serum creatinine >170 µmol/l, or deterioration of >50% eGFR if pre-existing renal disease or urine output <0.5ml/kg/hr for 3 consecutive hours) presenting at any point during the index admission and persistent after 12 h of fluid resuscitation, but for not more than 72 hours
- •Have provided written informed consent or consent is given by the patient's legally designated representative or an independent physician (if possible, according to local law).
排除标准
- •The use of other non-routine extracorporeal treatments such as very high flux renal replacement therapy (>60ml/kg/h total exchange), use of high cut off filters or other non-routine extracorporeal treatment columns such as Cytosorb, Toramyxcin, etc).
- •Presence of severe multiple organ failure at the point of enrolment as evidenced by:
- •Severe refractory vasoplegic failure
- •Norepinephrine dose > 0.60 μg/kg/min

- •Use of dobutamine, epinephrine, phosphodiesterase inhibitors or levosimendan
- •Coagulopathy as defined by Platelet count <50x10^9/L
- •Calculated Plasma Volume greater than 5000ml as determined by the following formula:
- •Vplasma = Vblood x (1 - haematocrit)
- •Vplasma = PV Vblood = an estimation of total blood volume (TBV; according to Nadler's formula, incorporating height, weight and sex).
- •A TBV calculator is available at https://www.omnicalculator.com/health/blood-volume

- •Chronic neuromuscular disease affected breathing
- •Current Participation in another interventional clinical study
- •Pregnancy (as established by the presence of beta human chorionic gonadotropin in urine or blood)
