E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
First primary endpoint Demonstrate that RESCAP® intervention reduces the time to reach stability, while at ICU. Severity of illness is assessed using the SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) score over 12 days while the patient remains in the ICU. Outcome will be compared after 72 hours in the ICU.
Second primary composite endpoint Demonstrate that alkaline phosphatase reduces the incidence and extent of acute kidney injury after cardiopulmonary bypass as defined by the AKIN criteria. • Rise in serum creatinine of by 0.3 mg/dl or 26 µmol/L in 48 hours/ a percentage increase in the serum creatinine concentration of ≥50 percent 10 or • A drop in urine output to 0.5 ml/kg/hour for 6 hours Occurrence of acute kidney injury will be checked within 30 days and additionally after 90 after surgery. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1. Measure cost-related outcomes associated to CPB and AP intervention including a) the incidence and duration of renal replacement therapy, b) Influence of the prolonged time of treatment (24 vs. 96 hours) on the primary endpoints (study outcome). c) days spent in the ICU and hospital, and d) the incidence of arrhythmias in the two groups 2. Compare plasma levels of a set of inflammatory markers (IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17, IL-18, TNF-alpha) and increase endogenous alkaline phosphatase levels and kidney function markers (IL18, NGAL, TIMP-1, GFR) in the control and AP treated groups.

Undergoing cardiac surgery with planned cardiopulmonary bypass 3. EuroSCORE II >= 3 4. Ability to provide informed consent (not incapacitated) 5. Patient has given written informed consent prior to participation in the trial and undertakes to comply with the protocol. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Any subjects meeting the following criteria at baseline will be excluded: 1. Already on renal replacement therapy 2. Patients with chronic kidney disease defined as urinary albumin excretion of ≥30 mg/day, or equivalent or estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for > 3 months. 3. Patients who are pregnant or lactating. 4. Concurrent enrolment in another clinical trial 5. Known allergic reaction to bovine alkaline phosphatase 6. Patient with ongoing infections or current use of steroids 7. Patient with high-risk emergency surgery or with follow-up procedures already planned at admission (like e.g., TEVAR) |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Efficacy We will have two efficacy endpoints that will be independently monitored by the data-safety monitoring board:
• Stop administering placebo but continue with experimental drug if AKI (defined by AKIN) is significantly lower in the experimental group • Stop administering placebo but continue with experimental drug if mortality is significantly lower in the experimental group.
Given the results of previous studies in sepsis patients, we anticipate that the greatest benefits will be seen in the prevention of AKI in the experimental group. If these benefits reach a level of statistical significance and are considered clinically relevant at any of the yearly reviews, the DSMB will recommend that the placebo arm be stopped and all patients receive the experimental drug.
Safety We will have two safety endpoints that will be independently monitored by the data-safety monitoring board.
• Stop if all cause mortality, cardiac mortality, acute kidney injury, or the primary compound outcome is significantly higher in the experimental group • Stop if more than 5% of patients have a serious adverse/allergic reaction to the administration of the drug.
The safety committee will review the safety endpoints once at the 30-day mark to ensure there are no immediate safety concerns with the trial and then proceed with a yearly review of the outcomes

• Stop after 2 years after enrollment of the first patient if the current enrollment rate will not allow the study to be finished in ultimately 5 years and likely less than 4 years. • Stop after 2 years if the event rate is significantly lower than anticipated and will not allow the study to be adequately powered with the estimated sample size |
