Brief Summary:
The purpose of this placebo-controlled study is to determine if drotrecogin alfa (activated) treatment provides significant mortality reduction improvement in patients with septic shock compared with placebo treatment in patients receiving the current standard of care for septic shock. This study will also assess the effectiveness of drotrecogin alfa (activated) in reducing 28-day mortality in patients with septic shock and concomitant severe protein C deficiency.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. 28-Day All-Cause Mortality [ Time Frame: Day 28 ]
    Expressed as percentage of participants who died from any cause at Day 28 endpoint.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. 28-Day All-Cause Mortality in Participants With Severe Protein C Deficiency [ Time Frame: Day 28 ]
    Expressed as percentage of participants who died from any cause at Day 28 endpoint. Participants with severe protein C deficiency are those who had a protein C level ≤ half the lower limit of normal (LLN) (≤40%).

  2. Average Cardiovascular Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score Day 1 Through Day 28 [ Time Frame: Day 1 through Day 28 ]
    Scores range from 0 (normal) to 4 (organ failure) with an increasing score indicating increasing cardiovascular dysfunction. A non-surviving participant receives a score of 4 (worst score) for the day of death and every day thereafter.

  3. Average Respiratory Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score Day 1 Through Day 28 [ Time Frame: Day 1 through Day 28 ]
    Scores range from 0 (normal) to 4 (organ failure) with an increasing score indicating increasing respiratory dysfunction. A non-surviving participant receives a score of 4 (worst score) for the day of death and every day thereafter.

  4. Average Renal Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Score Day 1 Through Day 28 [ Time Frame: Day 1 through Day 28 ]
    Scores range from 0 (normal) to 4 (organ failure) with an increasing score indicating increasing renal dysfunction. A non-surviving participant receives a score of 4 (worst score) for the day of death and every day thereafter.

  5. 90-Day Mortality [ Time Frame: Day 90 ]
    Expressed as percentage of participants who died from any cause at Day 90 endpoint.

  6. 180-Day Mortality [ Time Frame: Day 180 ]
    Expressed as percentage of participants who died from any cause at Day 180 endpoint.

  7. Median Survival Time [ Time Frame: Day 180 ]
  8. EuroQoL Questionnaire-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Scores at Baseline, Days 28, 90 and 180 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Days 28 and 90 and 180 ]
    EQ-5D VAS assesses caregiver's impression of participant's overall health state. Scores range from 0 (worst health state) to 100 (best health state), with higher scores indicating a better health state.

  9. EuroQoL Questionnaire-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) Total Scores at Baseline, Days 28, 90 and 180 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Days 28 and 90 and 180 ]
    The EQ-5D is used to assess participant's overall health. Consists of 5 items: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each item has 3 severity levels (no, some, severe problems). Calculated from EQ-5D, total scores (United States [US] Index Score) range from 0 (worst quality of life) to 1.00 (best quality of life).

  10. Quality of Life Short Form-12 (SF-12) Scores at Baseline, Days 28, 90 and 180 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Days 28 and 90 and 180 ]
    SF-12 was used as an instrument to measure participants' physical wellbeing (physical component) and mental wellbeing (mental component). Scores for each component range from 0-100, with 0= lowest wellbeing, and 100=highest wellbeing.

  11. Percentage of Participants Discontinued Due to Adverse Events Any Time From Baseline Through Day 28 Endpoint [ Time Frame: Baseline through Day 28 ]

Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Percentage of Participants With Serious Bleeding Events Within System Organ Class Any Time From Baseline Through Day 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline through Day 28 ]
    Percentage of participants who experienced serious bleeding events are reported by System Organ Class (SOC) term based on MedDRA 14.0. For a bleeding to qualify as a serious event, it would have to meet the standard definition of a serious adverse event or be a central nervous system bleeding or a bleeding event that lead to administration of ≥3 units packed red blood cells/day for 2 consecutive days.
