Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of AP in sepsis patients with renal failure and to investigate the effect of AP on inflammatory and clinical parameters in sepsis patients with renal failure
Detailed Description: RATIONALE FOR THE STUDY
A previous clinical study conducted in centers in The Netherlands and Belgium have shown a substantial clinical benefit of AP treatment in patients with sepsis and associated acute renal failure see Introduction above The latter results require confirmation in a prospective study as the current subject of this Protocol
Choice of Drugs
The proposed study medication AP is identical to the study medication used in the previous clinical study in sepsis patients with single or multiple end-organ failure Since there is no current proven treatment for these patients the controls as in previous studies is placebo
Choice of patient population
The aim is to enroll a maximum of 26 patients positive for sepsis with an APACHE score of 20 and 28 determined within 24 hours of entry and who will be analyzed on an intention to treat ITT basis
