What it does not prove

  • This is a phase II dose-finding study with no efficacy results reported, so no claims can be made about whether fisetin actually reduces sepsis progression or organ failure
  • The adaptive allocation design and focus on identifying an efficacious dose means this trial is not powered to definitively establish clinical benefit—that is reserved for a future phase III trial
  • Sample size and effect sizes are not reported, preventing assessment of statistical power or the magnitude of any observed differences

Senolytics To slOw Progression of Sepsis (STOP-Sepsis) Trial
A multicenter, randomized, adaptive allocation clinical trial to identify the most efficacious dose of the senolytic fisetin to reduce the composite cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal sequential organ failure assessment score at 1 week
The long-term goal is to test the clinical efficacy of senolytic therapies to reduce progression to and severity of sepsis in older patients.
