Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether recombinant Alkaline Phosphatase (recAP) is effective and save, and to determine the most effective dose, in the treatment of patients with acute kidney injury caused by sepsis.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Acute Kidney Injury Biological: recAP Other: Placebo Phase 2

Detailed Description:

Design:

Adaptive trial with two stages and interim analysis

  • Stage 1: four arms; three dose groups and placebo. n=30/arm. (n=120)
  • Interim analysis based on 120 subjects, with continued recruitment, adding 11 subjects to Stage 1 safety population (n=131): to evaluate safety and select dose for stage 2
  • Stage 2: one dose group and placebo. N=85/arm. (n=170) Total n in the study: 301.

Primary objectives

  • To investigate the effect of recAP on renal function (measured creatinine clearance D1-D7 period, incidence and duration of renal replacement therapy (RRT) over 28 days, eGFR at D60 and D90) and related clinical parameters (ICU stay, Hospital stay, Mechanical ventilation over 28 days, SOFA and SAPS2 scores 28 days) in patients with SA-AKI.
  • To determine effective therapeutic dose(s) of recAP.

Secondary objectives

  • To investigate the safety and tolerability of recAP in patients with SA AKI. (assessed by independent Data Monitoring Board, adverse events over 90 days study period, laboratory values, ECG, physical examniations, vital signs, Anti Drug Antibodies)
  • To investigate the pharmacokinetic profile (PK) of recAP in a subset of patients (part 1, n=120) with SA AKI. (Population PK; AUC D1-7, Cmax, Cmin, Tmax, terminal T1/2)
  • To investigate the immunogenic potential of recAP in patients with SA AKI. (anti-drug antibodies at D14, D28, D60 and D90)
  • To investigate the effect on quality of life (using the EuroQol, EQ-5D) following study inclusion, at ICU discharge, and Day 90.

Other objectives

• To evaluate whether specific patient groups can be identified that benefit most from recAP treatment or patient groups that are non-responders

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Area Under the Time Corrected Endogenous Creatinine Clearance From Day 1 to Day 7 (AUC1-7) [ Time Frame: 7 days ]

    Primary endpoint is calculated as the average of the standardized endogenous creatinine clearance values over the first seven days between the placebo and 1.6 mg/kg recAP arm.

    Standardized endogenous creatinine clearance is assessed on each days from D1 to Day 7 during a 6 +/- 1 hour period and calculated in mL/min as the mean creatinine clearance over the period. The study started with 4 treatment arms of which 0.4 mg/kg recAP and the 0.8 mg/kg recAP were dropped after the interim analysis. The number of the patients in the dropped arm are respectively 30 and 32. Therefore the statistical analysis has been performed only on the placebo and 1.6 mg/kg group.



Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants Who Had Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) During the Period Day 1 to Day 28, Inclusive [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
    During the study the days on Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) was recorded for each patients. During the first 7 days of the study (D1 to D7 included), patients were only allowed to receive continuous RRT, thereafter patients were also allowed to receive intermittent RRT. Standardization of RRT was attempted by providing guidelines to start and stop RRT (see protocol). Statistical analysis was only performed on the placebo and 1.6 mg/kg recAP arm due to the small number of patients treated with the doses of 0.4 mg/kg and 0.8 mg/kg recAP. Those two doses were dropped in part 2 of the study.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. All-cause Mortality at Day 28 [ Time Frame: Day 28 ]
    Number of patients in the ITT set, who died in the period between day 1 to day 28. Statistical analysis was only performed on the placebo and 1.6 mg/kg recAP arm due to the small number of patients treated with the doses of 0.4 mg/kg and 0.8 mg/kg recAP. Those two doses were dropped in part 2 of the study.

  2. All-cause Mortality at Day 90 [ Time Frame: Day 90 ]
    Number of patients in the ITT set, who died in the period between Day 1 and Day 90 Statistical analysis was only performed on the placebo and 1.6 mg/kg recAP arm due to the small number of patients treated with the doses of 0.4 mg/kg and 0.8 mg/kg recAP. Those two doses were dropped in part 2 of the study.

  3. Number of Participants Meeting at Least One MAKE 60 Criteria [ Time Frame: Day 60 ]

    Make 60 is composed of patients that meet at least one of the following criteria at day 60:

    1. had eGFR < 60 mL/min (calculated by using the CKD-EPI formula) or
    2. became dialysis dependent up to Day 60 or
    3. died prior to Day 60 Statistical analysis was only performed on the placebo and 1.6 mg/kg recAP arm due to the small number of patients treated with the doses of 0.4 mg/kg and 0.8 mg/kg recAP. Those two doses were dropped in part 2 of the study.

  4. Number of Patients Who Meet at Least One of the MAKE 90 Criteria [ Time Frame: Day 90 ]

    Make 90 includes patients who meet at least one of the following parameters at Day 90:

    1. had eGFR <60 ml/min at Day 90, estimated by the CKD-EPI formula based on a serum creatinine or
    2. was dialysis dependent up to Day 90 or
    3. was hospitalized for a new episode of acute kidney injury prior to Day 90 or
    4. died, prior to Day 90 Statistical analysis was only performed on the placebo and 1.6 mg/kg recAP arm due to the small number of patients treated with the doses of 0.4 mg/kg and 0.8 mg/kg recAP. Those two doses were dropped in part 2 of the study.
