Safety Evaluation of Prismocitrate 18 in Patients Receiving CRRT

April 10, 2026 updated by: Vantive Health LLC

A Safety Evaluation of Prismocitrate 18 in Patients Receiving Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)

Prismocitrate 18 is a continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) solution to be used as a renal replacement solution and as an anticoagulant to prevent blood clotting in the extracorporeal circuit. The delivery of CRRT therapy is provided by the PrisMax System which includes regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) software to facilitate citrate and calcium compensation prescription.

The objectives of this study are: 1) to confirm the safety of Prismocitrate 18 in patients receiving CRRT using continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) or continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) and 2) to observe that the software and interface for the PrisMax System Version 3.x with calcium line accessory allows for implementation of regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) (citrate and calcium dosing) during CRRT with Prismocitrate 18 and intended prescription.

The study period of the patient's CRRT will be up to 10 days.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Prismocitrate 18 using the PrisMax System Version 3.x with calcium line accessory
This is a single-arm study. Patients will receive regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) with Prismocitrate 18 (investigational drug) during their CRRT treatment using the PrisMax System Version 3.x with calcium line accessory (investigational device).
Prismocitrate 18 solution (investigational drug) will be used in pre-dilution mode only; the rate of administration depends on the targeted citrate dose and the prescribed flow rate. The pre-filter infusion rate of Prismocitrate 18 solution will be indexed to the blood flow rate (BFR) to achieve a target blood citrate concentration of 3 mmol/L of blood. The flow rate for the anticoagulation of the extracorporeal circuit will be titrated to achieve a post-filter concentration of iCa of 0.25 to 0.35 mmol/L.
The RCA software on PrisMax System Version 3.x with calcium line accessory (investigational device) will be enabled to carefully guide the health practitioner for citrate dosing and calcium compensation.
