Clinical Trial: Lung Injury is One of the Primary Causes of Morbidity and Mortality in Critically Ill Patients. These Patients Will be Monitored for: 1) Immune Cell Activation 2) Blood-based Biomarkers. In Vitro Models Derived From These Samples Will be Treated With Novel Agent PIP-2 to Evaluate Its Efficacy.

U.S., Aug. 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07125079) titled 'Lung Injury is One of the Primary Causes of Morbidity and Mortality in Critically Ill Patients.

Brief Summary: Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a condition where high levels of inflammation damage the lung. This is a highly morbid condition with no specific pharmacologic therapies. The investigators posit that ARDS is caused due to an exaggerated activation of immune cells and that blo...
