Summary

Study Hypothesis Enhancement of Th-1 response with the help of a poly TLR agonist (Mw) is likely to increase survival in patients with severe sepsis.

Objectives To study whether immunomodulation with Mycobacterium Mw helps in improving survival and the recovery of organ function in patients with severe sepsis. This will be assessed with the help of the following

* Mortality in the two arms
* Daily SOFA scores
* Ventilator free days
* Time-to-vasopressor withdrawal
* ICU length of stay
* Hospital length of stay METHODS This will be a proof of the concept study to assess the effect of Mycobacterium w in combination with standard therapy versus standard therapy alone on the inflammatory profile in sepsis due to gram negative infection. A total of 25 patients will be enrolled in each group. The patients will be randomized in balance to receive either test drug or its placebo along with the standard of care
