Summary

Sepsis is a severe disease with a high mortality rate and lack of efficacious therapies. Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are drugs widely used to inhibit acid secretion by gastric cells and with a high safety profile. Carta and Rubartelli (IRCCS San Martino - Genova) have recently reported that PPI, such as esomeprazole, inhibit TNF-alfa and IL-1ß secretion. Moreover, they showed that a single administration of PPI protects mice from endotoxic shock with no adverse effects. PPI-SEPSIS is a randomized, double blind, controlled against placebo clinical trial to test if high-doses esomeprazole in septic patients reduces the severity of organs failure.

In parallel, the investigators will evaluate ex vivo in monocytes from septic patients: redox state and response to inflammatory stimuli; ATP release; metabolic changes and pH; cytokine production; the effects of PPI on these parameters.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Esomeprazole

160 mg of esomeprazole will be diluted in 100 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride for intravenous use for bolus. For continuous intravenous infusion, 40 mg of esomeprazole will be reconstituted by adding 5 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride for intravenous use at a concentration of 8 mg/ml.

DRUG

Placebo

0.9% sodium chloride (same ml of the study drug)
