Terminated due to futility. Post-enrollment analysis of baseline disease severity indicated that the enrolled population would not allow for a meaningful assessment of the treatment effect on the primary endpoint.

More than 1 million people undergo cardiac surgery each year worldwide. Cardiac surgeries still in most cases require cardiopulmonary bypass, use of myocardial protection against aortic clamping and creation of cardioplegic arrest of the heart by injecting cardioplegic solutions into the coronary bed. All of the above is a source of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, which remains the leading cause of acute heart failure in the period after the return of spontaneous circulation and, as a consequence, the development of post-perfusion multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and, in particular, acute kidney injury (AKI). Acute kidney injury typically develops in 7% of all hospitalised patients, 30% of intensive care unit patients and 30% of cardiac surgery patients. Endotoxemia is a major cause of AKI. Septic AKI (compared to non-septic AKI) is associated with a worse prognosis, longer hospital stay and poorer survival.
The use of the Efferon LPS hemoperfusion device, which has proven efficacy in removing not only endotoxin but also cytokines, may be promising in preventing the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and in particular AKI in patients after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.
Every year, more than 1 million people around the world undergo heart surgery. Cardiac surgery still requires cardiopulmonary bypass in the majority of cases for a number of reasons. The use of cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiothoracic surgery is a well-known and potent inducer of immune responses due to the contact of whole blood with air and extracorporeal circuit surfaces, ischemia-reperfusion injury, hemolysis and release of free hemoglobin, the effects of surgical trauma itself, and other factors.The activation of immune cells leads to the release of cytokines and inflammatory mediators such as IL-6, IL-8, activated complement and others.
One of the most common post-operative complications associated with the administration of cardiopulmonary bypass during surgery is acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI develops in 30% of patients undergoing cardiac surgery and is associated with high mortality, longer hospital stay, dialysis dependency, high risk of infectious complications and ultimately poor quality of life. Endotoxemia is a major cause of AKI. Septic AKI (compared to non-septic AKI) is associated with a worse prognosis, longer hospital stay and poorer survival.
Currently, hemosorbents based on highly cross-linked styrene/divinylbenzene copolymers can remove endo- and exotoxins in sepsis and acute and chronic renal and hepatic failure, remove intoxication by pharmacological drugs, narcotics and poisons, and remove cytokines produced in excess in systemic inflammatory syndromes of various aetiologies, including systemic inflammatory response syndrome after open-heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.
Hemoperfusion is a method of extracorporeal removal of toxic substances from the blood by adsorption to a porous material. Hemoperfusion can be a good complement or substitute to the classical methods of hemofiltration and hemodialysis when diffusion or convection of toxic substances through the membrane is not efficient enough.
Based on previous studies, the use of the Efferon LPS hemoperfusion device, which has proven efficacy in removing not only endotoxin but also cytokines, may be promising in preventing the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and in particular AKI in patients after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Baseline therapy | No Intervention | Patients will be treated according to the standard protocol for cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass without hemoperfusion. | |
| Basic therapy + Efferon LPS | Experimental | Patients will be treated according to the standard protocol for cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and will receive hemoperfusion with Efferon LPS. |

| Efferon LPS | Device | Efferon LPS, a medical device, which is a single-use cartridge filled with a polymeric adsorbent that selectively adsorbs endotoxin via surface-immobilized ligand and excessive cytokines via its intrinsic porosity. The hemoperfusion procedure is performed at the time of cardiopulmonary bypass during cardiac surgery. The therapy (Efferon LPS hemoperfusion) is performed once. The duration of the procedure is limited by the time ofcardiopulmonary bypass. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Effect of the hemoperfusion with Efferon LPS device during cardiopulmonary bypass on measures of organ dysfunction | Measured every 24 hours ± 1 hour from the end of cardiopulmonary bypass to 72 hours. The SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) index is equal to the sum of six indicators. The higher the score, the greater the insufficiency of the system being assessed. The higher the overall index, the greater the degree of multiorgan dysfunction. Violation of the function of each organ (system) is assessed separately in dynamics against the background of intensive therapy. With a score of no more than 12, multiple organ dysfunctions are assumed, 13-17 points indicate the transition of dysfunction to insufficiency, a score of about 24 indicates a high probability of death. The lower the SOFA index, the less pronounced organ failure and the better the patient's survival prognosis. | 0-72 hours |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of post-operative acute kidney injury | Incidence of post-operative acute kidney injury is verified by Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) criteria | 0-72 hours |
| Renal function | Time (number of hours) to return to normal glomerular filtration rate (GFR) |
