The NEPHRO CRRT registrational study is to enrol 166 subjects undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) at up to 14 clinical sites across the United States.
The study's primary endpoint is the mean post-filtre activated clotting time for circuits infused with nafamostat compared to placebo over the first 24 hours.
