Study of genetic elements in sepsis and aging
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial looks at how certain genetic elements may affect the immune system in older adults with sepsis. It aims to understand why older patients may respond differently to severe infections.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are in the intensive care unit (ICU) with sepsis, a severe response to infection.
- You have a SOFA score of 2 or higher, which measures organ function.
- You do not have a bleeding disorder like DIC or hemorrhagic shock.
- You do not have a long-term low red blood cell count (hemoglobin below 7.0).
- You are not taking immune-suppressing drugs after an organ transplant, and you have not had CAR-T cell therapy for cancer.

This study looks at how certain natural molecules in your blood might affect recovery from severe infections or sepsis. By understanding these molecules, doctors hope to better predict outcomes and personalize treatment for patients in the ICU.
This study looks at how the immune system changes during sepsis, a life-threatening infection that can cause organ failure. By studying blood samples over time, researchers hope to find better ways to treat or prevent complications.
This study looks at how the immune system works in people who are critically ill with sepsis. By understanding these changes, doctors hope to find better ways to treat this serious condition.
This study looks at different types (“endotypes”) of sepsis in adults to better understand what’s happening in the body and how patients may respond. You might be asked to provide information and samples as the study tries to sort sepsis into meaningful subgroups.
This study looks at how the immune system changes in people with sepsis (a severe response to infection that can cause organ failure). It aims to understand immune dysfunction to help improve treatments.
This study looks at how the immune system reacts to sepsis (a severe infection that causes organs to fail) and whether there are lasting effects on health. It may help researchers understand why some people recover well and others don’t.
