YD0743 for sepsis-associated ARDS in adults

Official title: A Multicenter, Parallel, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase II Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of YD0743 Injection in the Treatment of Sepsis-Associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Run by Shanghai Huilun Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. · NCT07413094 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial will test whether YD0743 can shorten the number of days adults in the ICU with sepsis-associated ARDS need a ventilator and whether the drug is safe to use.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 18 to 75 with sepsis suspected or confirmed to have caused ARDS, who can be enrolled within 48 hours of ARDS diagnosis and provide informed consent (or have a representative do so), are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients with expected survival under 48 hours, sepsis primarily from extensive burns, active metastatic cancer or severe uncontrolled organ dysfunction, or known hypersensitivity to the drug are unlikely to benefit from this treatment.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Adults (18–75) with sepsis-associated ARDS admitted to the ICU within 48 hours of ARDS diagnosis will receive either YD0743 injections or a matching placebo for at least seven days. Outcomes include ventilator-using days and monitoring of adverse events, with an in-person follow-up visit on Day 28. Participants (or their legally authorized representatives) must provide informed consent before enrollment. The comparison against placebo is intended to determine both efficacy and safety signals in this phase 2 setting.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If effective, YD0743 could reduce the time patients need mechanical ventilation and lower complications related to prolonged ventilator use.

How similar studies have gone: Previous trials of experimental anti-inflammatory or biologic agents in sepsis-related ARDS have produced mixed results, so this specific agent and approach are not yet proven.
