Randomized, placebo-controlled trial of lisofylline for early treatment of acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome

Critical Care Medicine

Abstract

To determine whether the administration of lisofylline (1-[5R-hydroxyhexyl]-3,7-dimethylxanthine) would decrease mortality in patients with acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. Intensive care units at 21 hospitals at the ten centers constituting the ARDS Clinical Trials Network. A total of 235 patients who met eligibility criteria were enrolled in the study (116 into the lisofylline group, 119 into the placebo group). Patients were randomized to receive either lisofylline or placebo. The dose of lisofylline was 3 mg/kg with a maximum dose of 300 mg intravenously every 6 hrs. The intravenous solution of study drug was administered over 10 mins every 6 hrs. Dosing was continued for 20 days or until the patient achieved 48 hrs of unassisted breathing. The trial was stopped by the Data Safety Monitoring Board for futility at the first scheduled interim analysis. The patient groups had similar characteristics at enrollment. No significant safety concerns were associated with lisofylline therapy. There was no significant difference between groups in the number of patients who had died at 28 days (31.9% lisofylline vs. 24....Continue Reading

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
