Clinical Trial Summary

Hypothesis 1A: Oral Administration or Nasal Feeding of Huzhangxiefei Decoction will significantly attenuate sepsis-induced systemic organ failure as measured by overall response rate.

Hypothesis 1B: Oral Administration or Nasal Feeding of Huzhangxiefei Decoction will attenuate sepsis-induced lung injury as assessed by the respiratory rate and oxygenation index.

Hypothesis 1C: Oral Administration or Nasal Feeding of Huzhangxiefei Decoction will attenuate sepsis-induced lung injury as assessed by chest x-ray scale score, Chinese Medicine scale score.

Hypothesis 1D: Oral Administration or Nasal Feeding of Huzhangxiefei Decoction will attenuate biomarkers of inflammation (C-Reactive Protein, Procalcitonin), vascular injury (Thrombomodulin, Angiopoietin-2), alveolar epithelial injury (Receptor for Advanced Glycation Products), while inducing the onset of a fibrinolytic state (Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor).

Description:

Huzhangxiefei Decoction is a prescription formulated by a professional doctor of traditional Chinese medicine

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients must have suspected or proven infection, and be accompanied by at least 1 criterion for sepsis-induced organ dysfunction, and meet all 5 criteria for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).

Suspected or proven infection: (e.g., thorax, urinary tract, abdomen, skin, sinuses, central venous catheters, and central nervous system).

The presence of sepsis associated organ dysfunction: (any of the following thought to be due to infection): Sepsis associated hypotension (systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 90 mm Hg or an SBP decrease > 40 mm Hg unexplained by other causes or use of vasopressors for blood pressure support (epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine =/> 5mcg, phenylephrine, vasopressin); Arterial hypoxemia (PaO2/FiO2 < 300) or supplemental O2 > 6LPM; Lactate > upper limits of normal laboratory results; Urine output < 0.5 ml/kg/hour for > two hours despite adequate fluid resuscitation; Platelet count < 100,000 per mcL; Coagulopathy (INR > 1.5); Bilirubin > 2 mg/dL; Glasgow Coma Scale < 11 or a positive CAM ICU score.

ARDS characterized by all the following criteria Lung injury of acute onset, within 1 week of an apparent clinical insult and with progression of respiratory symptoms Bilateral opacities on chest imaging not explained by other pulmonary pathology (e.g. pleural effusions, lung collapse, or nodules) Respiratory failure not explained by heart failure or volume overload Decreased arterial PaO2/FiO2 ratio = 300 mm Hg Minimum PEEP of 5 cmH2O (may be delivered noninvasively with CPAP to diagnose mild ARDS

Exclusion Criteria:

• age < 18 years;

• pregnancy or breast feeding;

• moribund patient not expected to survive 24 hours;

• for patients with chronic liver insufficiency, renal insufficiency, blood system disease, etc., it is impossible to judge that the organ insufficiency occurred after this infection

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score	SOFA is a single score based on patient status of five different biological systems: respiratory, cardiovascular, coagulation, renal, and neurological. Scores range from 0 to 24 with higher scores indicated worse status	up to 7 days
Primary	C-Reactive Protein at Study Hours 0, 96, 168 When Compared to Placebo	C-Reactive Protein at Study Hours 0, 96, 168 When Compared to Placebo	up to 168 hours
Primary	Oxygenation Index (FiO2 x Mean Airway Pressure/PaO2) at Study Hour 0, 96, 168 if Still Intubated in Oral Administration or Nasal Feeding of Huzhangxiefei decoction Patient Compared to Placebo	Oxygenation Index (FiO2 x Mean Airway Pressure/PaO2) at Study Hour 0, 96, 168 if Still Intubated in Oral Administration or Nasal Feeding of Huzhangxiefei decoction Patient Compared to Placebo	up to 168 hours
Primary	overall response rate	Overall response rate=(the number of marked response patients+the number of moderate response)/the number of all patients within group; Four criteria were established as follows: RR(d1)-RR(d7)=5 breaths per minute or 12 breaths per minute=RR(d7)=20breaths per minute; OI(d7)-OI(d1)=50mmHg; [CXSS(d1)-CXSS(d7)]/CXSS(d1)=10%; CMSS(d1)-CMSS(d7)=3 points Marked response: three or four criteria of the above are met Moderate response:two criteria of the above are met No response: none or only one criterion of the above is met; RR refers to respiratory rate, breaths per minute OI refers to oxygenation index, mmHg CXSS refers to chest x-ray scale score CMSS refers to Chinese Medicine scale score	up to 7 days
