Clinical Trial Summary

With this study researchers want to find the highest safe dose of the soluble Guanylate Cyclase (sGC) Activator, BAY 1211163 and how safe and well the study drug works. Furthermore researchers want to gather information on the way the body absorbs, distributes and gets rid of the study drug given as increasing multiple doses by inhalation to patients who cannot breathe by their own and suffer from a type of lung failure that causes fluid to build up in the lungs making breathing difficult (ARDS)

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Numbers of participants with treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs)		Up to 9 days
Primary	Numbers of participants with dose limiting events (DLEs)	A dose limiting event is defined as any of the TEAEs occurring during dosing with BAY1211163 and regarded by the investigators to be related to BAY1211163.	Day 1 to 7 (may include Day 8)
Secondary	Values of oxygenation index (OI)	The Oxygenation Index (OI) is calculated by using the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), the partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) and the mean airway pressure (MPAW)	Up to 28 days
