Right ventricular failure may be associated with mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Mechanical ventilation may promote right ventricular failure by inducing alveolar overdistention and atelectasis. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a bedside non-invasive technique assessing the regional distribution of lung ventilation, thus helping titrating positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) to target the minimum levels of alveolar overdistension and atelectasis. The aim of this physiologic randomized crossover trial is to assess right ventricular size and function with transthoracic echocardiography with different levels of PEEP in adult patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS undergoing controlled invasive mechanical ventilation: the level of PEEP determined according to the ARDS Network low PEEP-FiO2 table, the PEEP value that minimizes the risk of alveolar overdistension and atelectasis (as determined by EIT), the highest PEEP value minimizing the risk of alveolar overdistension (as determined by EIT), and the lowest PEEP level that minimizes the risk of alveolar atelectasis (as determined by EIT). Our findings may offer valuable insights into the level of PEEP favoring right ventricular protection during mechanical ventilation in patients with ARDS.

This dose-escalating phase I trial assesses for the first time the safety, the side effects and the harmlessness, as well as the therapeutical benefit of the new study drug GEM3PSCA in patients with prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) expressing cancer types which failed to respond to standard therapy.
