Trial design
CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding
Main objective
Scope: Safety, Pharmacoeconomic, Therapy, Efficacy
Main objective is composed by:
-Reduction of organ failure evaluated by Sepsis realted Organ failure
Assessment score (SOFA scale) 72 h after administration of terlipressin
/ placebo.
-Increase in ICU-free days of life measured 28 days after administration
of terlipressin / placebo
Secondary objectives 10
- Increase in lactate clearance at 6, 12, 24 and 72 h after administration of terlipressin / placebo
- Increase in the days with life free of mechanical ventilation measured at 28 days
- Increase in vasopressor-free days of life measured at 28 days
- Mortality at 28 days and 90 days
- Reduction of the need for continuous renal replacement therapy
- Reduction of the total equivalent dose of vasopressors
- No increase in adverse effects related to the administration of vasopressors.
- Association with mortality of genetic variants of the vasopressin receptor 1a and LNPEP
- Association between achievement of the combined primary objective and genetic variants of the vasopressin receptor 1a and LNPEP.
- Association between the appearance of adverse effects due to the use of terlipressin and genetic variants of the vasopressin receptor 1a and LNPEP.

Randomised Controlled | Double | [{"id":67373,"code":1,"name":"Subject"},{"id":67372,"code":3,"name":"Monitor"},{"id":67371,"code":2,"name":"Investigator"}] | Experimental treatment: Patients who require noradrenaline at a dose equal to or greater than 0.2 μg/kg/min for at least 3 hours and no more than 12 hours from the moment the patient becomes recruitable, considered for inclusion in the study, are administered terlipressin at a dose of 1 mg every 6 hours diluted in 50 mL of saline to be administered over 15-30 minutes, at a dose of 1 mg every 6 hours. Control treatment: Patients who require a baseline noradrenaline infusion at a dose equal to or greater than 0.2 μg/kg/min for at least 3 hours and no more than 12 hours from the moment the patient becomes recruitable, considered for inclusion in the study, are subsequently administered a placebo, indistinguishable from the terlipressin vial, every 6 hours. |

- Pathologies on which terlipressin is clinically indicated: gastrointestinal bleeding due to esophageal-gastric varices, hepatorenal syndrome.
- Patients diagnosed with unstable acute coronary syndrome.
- Patients with acute or chronic mesenteric ischemia
- Patients with Raynaud's Phenomenon, or vasospastic disease.
- Patients participating in another intervention clinical trial.
- Patients with active bleeding.
- Patients with renal replacement technique at the time of randomization.
- Patients with some limitation of life support treatment (LLST).
