Trial design

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Efficacy, Safety, Therapy

To assess the efficacy of inhaled sevoflurane, compared to current intravenous sedation practice, for improving PaO2/FiO2 in ICU patients at high risk for ARDS.

Secondary objectives 13

  1. Progression to ARDS, as defined by the Berlin criteria
  2. Safety (clinical adverse events) of the two sedation strategies
  3. Effects on the rate of pneumonia
  4. Effects on respiratory mechanics
  5. Effects on gas exchange and physiologic measures
  6. Effects on ICU-acquired delirium
  7. Effects on hemodynamic measures and renal function (KDIGO criteria for acute kidney injury)
  8. Effects on organ dysfunction
  9. Effects on the duration of mechanical ventilation
  10. Effects on 28-day mortality
  11. Effects on the number of days off the ventilator at 28 days, taking into account death as a competing event
  12. Biological collection of plasma samples for future mechanistic and endotyping studies of the biological effects of sevoflurane
  13. Presence of subphenotypes among patients at risk of developing ARDS

Study design 1 period

#TitleAllocationBlindingRoles blindedArms
1 Sedation
patients will receive the allocated sedation strategy from randomization until sedation can be definitely interrupted or until day 5, whichever occurs first
Randomised Controlled None Inhaled sedation with sevoflurane: treatment for sedation is sevoflurane
Intravenous sedation: We will not mandate the sedative type, but rather encourage the use of sedatives that are already routinely used in participating ICUs (typically a benzodiazepine propofol, or dexmedetomidine, i.e. drugs approved for sedation)

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 5

  1. Age ≥ 18 years

  3. Patient under invasive mechanical ventilation
  4. With expected duration of sedation superior or equal to 4 hours
  5. Affiliation to the French Sécurité Sociale

Exclusion criteria 16

  1. Patient under a tutelage measure
  2. Medical history of malignant hyperthermia
  3. Long QT syndrome at risk of arrhythmic events
  4. Medical history of liver disease attributed to previous exposure to a halogenated agent (including sevoflurane)
  5. Suspected or proven intracranial hypertension
  6. Enrollment in another interventional trial with direct impact on oxygenation
  7. Patient under judicial protection, guardianship or supervision
  8. Patient under psychiatric care as defined by art. L1121-6 of the Public Health Code
  9. Known pregnancy
  10. Presence of ARDS prior to randomization
  11. Endotracheal ventilation for greater than 24 hours prior to randomization
  12. Home mechanical ventilation (non-invasive ventilation or via tracheotomy) except for CPAP/BIPAP used solely for sleep-disordered breathing
  13. Tidal volume of 6 mL/kg predicted body weight (PBW) below 200 mL (i.e. height inferior to 134cm for a man and 139cm for a woman)
  14. Moribund patient, i.e. not expected to survive 24 hours despite intensive care
  15. Previous hypersensitivity or anaphylactic reaction to sevoflurane or to the intravenous sedation agent routinely used in the participating ICU (such as midazolam, propofol, or dexmedetomidine)
  16. Contra-indications to the intravenous sedative agent routinely used in the participating ICU (such as midazolam, propofol, or dexmedetomidine
