Brief Summary

The study is composed of two parts. In part A of the study two active doses of inhaled pegylated adrenomedullin (PEG-ADM) will be compared regarding safety and efficacy to a substance that has no ther...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • ≥18 years of age at the time of inclusion into study.
  • Invasively mechanically ventilated acute respiratory distress syndrome \[ARDS\] patients (diagnosed according to Berlin definition of ARDS, including positive end-expiratory pressure \[PEEP\] of ≥5 cm H2O, X-ray (or CT scan) indicative of ARDS: bilateral opacities not fully explained by cardiac failure, fluid overload, lobar/lung collapse, effusions or nodules).
  • Initial diagnosis of mild, moderate or severe ARDS prior to study inclusion, with acute onset of ARDS within 1 week after suspected trigger factor of
  • Pneumonia
  • Aspiration
  • Sepsis
  • Pancreatitis
  • Prior to randomization, hypoxemia with PaO2:FiO2 ≤300 mmHg continuously observed for a period of ≥4 hours (with values of ≥2 arterial blood gas \[ABG\] analyses during that time, with the last value obtained timely (generally ≤3 hours) prior to randomization), under ventilation with minimum PEEP ≥8 cm H2O.
  • Time from first meeting the last diagnostic ARDS criterion (Berlin criteria) to randomization must be ≤48 hours.
  • For Study Part A: ARDS patients for whom measurements of extra-vascular lung water are regarded as medically indicated by the treating physician, and these measurements are planned as part of their clinical care, from Study Day 1 up to Study Day 7 (if then still intubated).

Exclusion

  • Any value of a PaO2:FiO2 ratio \>300 mmHg within a time interval of 4 hours before randomization
  • Rescue therapy (e.g. inhalation of nitric oxide gas and/or inhalation of prostacyclin analogues, or extra corporeal membrane oxygenation \[ECMO\] / extra corporeal CO2 removal \[ECCO2R\]) already initiated at screening and/or Study Day 1 (prior to first dose of the study intervention)
  • Moribund participants not expected to survive 24 hours (clinical decision)
  • Expected duration of invasive mechanical ventilation less than 48 hours (clinical decision)
  • History of co-morbidities requiring long-term/home oxygen use (e.g. severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease \[COPD\], pulmonary fibrosis) or non-invasive ventilation (except for sleep apnea management), or making weaning per se improbable (e.g. ALS, muscular dystrophy)
  • Smoke inhalation injury, extensive burns or trauma/head injury as concomitant condition
  • History of pneumectomy, lung lobectomy or lung transplant
  • Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage from vasculitis
  • Current lung malignancy (incl. lung metastasis), or other malignancy requiring chemotherapy or radiation within the last month
  • Chronic kidney disease with a history of renal replacement therapy (e.g. dialysis)
  • Chronic liver disease Child-Pugh Class C
  • Chronic heart failure NYHA IV
  • Known hypersensitivity to polyethyleneglycol (PEG, Macrogol)
  • Participation in other interventional studies involving pharmacological interventions, or biological or cell therapy interventions
  • Diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonia within 6 weeks prior to study inclusion. History of SARS-CoV-2 infection (positive test based on nucleic acid amplification technology or positive antigen test) without COVID-19 pneumonia does not exclude patients
