Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this randomized, comparative, open and multi-centre study is to show that two sessions of hemoperfusion with Toraymyxin performed within maximum 36 hours after the surgery of a peritonitis by hollow organ perforation reduce the mortality in patients suffering from septic shock.


Clinical Trial Description

The mortality rate due to peritonitis associated to a severe sepsis or a septic shock remains high (between 40 and 60% as per the studies). The recent complementary therapies for severe sepsis have been reassessed (strict glycaemic control, substitutive corticotherapy, activated protein C). Early neutralisation of the endotoxaemia related to gram-negative bacilli sepsis in contact with hemoperfusion membrane covered with polymyxin B (Toraymyxin™) may enable reduction of the inflammatory reaction caused by sepsis and improve its prognosis. 30 studies, including 10 randomized studies, have compared hemoperfusion with Toraymyxin™ to the standard treatment, showing an improvement in the patients' haemodynamic state, oxygenation conditions and reduction in mortality. This treatment is commonly used in Japan. However, the studies conducted either include only a limited number of patients or are not randomized prospective studies. The post-hoc analysis of a recent randomized study conducted on a limited number of patients with abdominal septic shock shows a significant reduction in mortality after factor adjustment. Though the side effects of such a treatment are limited, its cost is high. Hence, extensive prospective studies are necessary to confirm its effectiveness. ;
