Clinical Trial Summary

Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains a leading cause of death world-wide. Hypoalbuminemia is associated with worse outcomes. However, whether albumin administration would have a beneficial effect in outcome in patients with CAP remains uncertain. This project proposes to test the hypothesis of whether the administration of albumin in hypoalbuminemic patients with CAP would increase the proportion of clinical stable patients at day 5.


Clinical Trial Description

This project will consist of a superiority, non-blinded, multicentre, randomized, phase 3, interventional controlled clinical trial. The estimated sample size is of 360 patients, who will be recruited from three Spanish hospitals. Hypoalbuminemic (≤30g/L) adult patients with CAP will be randomly assigned (1:1) to receive standard care plus albumin (20g in 100ml) every 12 hours for 4 days or standard care alone. The primary endpoint will be the proportion of clinical stable patients at day 5, defined as stable vital signs for at least 24h, analyzed by intention to treat. The secondary endpoints will be time to clinical stability; duration of intravenous and total antibiotic treatment; length of hospital stay; intensive care unit admission; duration of mechanical ventilation and vasopressor treatment; adverse events; readmission within 30 days and all-cause mortality. ;
