This is a Phase 3, double-blind, randomized study of LJPC-501 (angiotensin II) in adult patients diagnosed with catecholamine-resistant hypotension (CRH) conducted in multiple centers globally.
Catecholamine-resistant hypotension (CRH) is an often fatal condition resulting from an underlying cause such as septic shock, inflammation due to trauma, or severe drug reactions. When these conditions occur, most patients will respond to either volume expansion or vasopressor treatment. However, some patients will require excessive doses of vasopressors and will be deemed to be resistant. Angiotensin II is a peptide hormone naturally produced by the body that regulates blood pressure via vasoconstriction and sodium reabsorption. LJPC-501 (angiotensin II) is being developed for the treatment of patients with catecholamine-resistant hypotension (CRH). This is a multi-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Adult patients with CRH, who are hospitalized in an ICU setting, may be eligible to participate. Approximately 315 patients will be enrolled.

An Increased MAP, Defined as Achievement of a Day 1 MAP at 3 Hours Following the Initiation of Study Drug, of ≥ 75 mmHg OR a 10 mmHg Increase in Baseline MAP
Response with respect to mean arterial pressure (MAP) at hour 3 after the start of infusion was defined as an increase from baseline of at least 10 mm Hg or an increase to at least 75 mm Hg, without an increase in the dose of background vasopressors.
Time frame: Hour 3
