NCT ID NCT05824767

First seen Feb 05, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study looked at 40 adults with septic shock to see if two blood markers, renin and DPP3, can predict who will respond better to a drug called angiotensin II compared to standard blood pressure-raising medicines. The goal was to gather knowledge for future treatment decisions, not to cure or control the disease. Participants were already in intensive care and needed strong medications to keep their blood pressure up.
