Brief Summary:
This is a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, two-part adaptive clinical trial. The trial is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of multiple dosing regimens of selepressin and to confirm the efficacy and safety of one dosing regimen in treatment of adult patients with septic shock requiring vasopressor.

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Vasopressor- and mechanical ventilator-free days [ Time Frame: Up to Day 30 ]This composite endpoint is defined as number of days from start of treatment to 30 days thereafter during which the patient is 1) alive; 2) free of treatment with vasopressors; 3) free of any mechanical ventilation
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- All-cause mortality [ Time Frame: At Day 90 ]Defined as the fraction of patients that have died
- Renal replacement therapy-free days [ Time Frame: Up to Day 30 ]
- Intensive care unit-free days [ Time Frame: Up to Day 30 ]
