5 Double blind treatment A RandomizEd trial of ENtERal Glutamine to minimIZE thermal injury R EN glutamine Maltodextran placebo Concealed Stratified by site 6 month mortality 2700 patients with TBSA ≥ 20%, if 18-59 yrs age ≥ 15%, if 18-59 yrs age with inhalation injury ≥ 10%, if ≥ 60 yrs age

6 Why are we doing this trial?

7 The Clinical Significance of Burn Injuries » Worldwide, burn injuries represent a significant public health problem. » Ranked the fourth most common injury. » Leading cause of disability adjusted life years in low and middle-income countries. » Mortality from burn injuries has plateaued and the leading cause of death from burn injuries continues to be sepsis and multiple organ failure. » Burn patients present with up to a 3-fold higher prevalence of sepsis than other trauma patients.

8 » The overall aim of the RE-ENERGIZE study is to reduce the burden of illness associated with significant burn injury using a naturally occurring substance, glutamine!

12 Role of the Site Investigator Delegation of Authority Burn Grafting Assessments SAEs Investigator Responsibilities

13 Ensure subject safety is protected & well-managed Full compliance with requirements of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Conduct the study in compliance with the protocol Role of Site Investigator

14 Acknowledge and retain responsibility for study conduct Personally conduct or supervise the clinical study Ensure that all study staff are informed of their obligations (Delegation of Authority) Maintain records of staff qualifications Ensure that mechanisms are in place to ensure that site staff receive the appropriate information throughout the study Ensure that appropriate medical coverage is identified for any planned absences (holiday, attending a conference, etc.) Allow monitoring, auditing & regulatory inspections Notify CERU asap of any planned regulatory inspections Interact with the CERU monitor during monitoring visits Investigator Responsibilities

15 Site Investigator/sub-I delegate must make the following determinations and sign/date applicable documents, whether in the patient chart or on a study specific form, to indicate he/she made the assessment: 1)Confirmation of patient eligibility 2)SAE Identification & Assessment Ensure adherence to reporting requirements & timelines Provide causality assessment Determine relationship to investigational product 3)Severity of Burn and Grafting Assessments Highlighted Responsibilities

16 Delegation of Authority Logs “The Investigator should maintain a list of appropriately qualified persons to whom the investigator has delegated significant trial-related duties” (ICH section 4.1.5) Complete log and send to CERU before start of trial. Each team member to must be trained on the study before performing any study related, delegated tasks.

17 Delegation of Authority Logs

18 Assessments to be done by the surgeon/physician using the Lund and Browder chart SI/sub-I must confirm all assessments. REMINDER: Area expected to require grafting cannot be zero – this is an inclusion criterion! Initial Grafting Assessment

19 Assessments to be done by the surgeon/physician and confirmed by the SI/sub-I Use the Lund and Browder Chart If Last Successful Graft was not achieved, indicate the reason Final Grafting Assessment

20 Initial Grafting Assessment Deep Partial/Full Thickness Burn expected to require grafting: __________%TBSA Record only the %TBSA you expect to graft. This may be a small percentage of the total burn size. There is no minimum, however this cannot be zero and should not be greater than the total burn size. Final Grafting Assessment Total Body Surface Area that actually required grafting: __________%TBSA Record the %TBSA you actually grafted. This may be zero if the patient healed without needing an expected graft. There is no minimum or maximum, however this should NOT be 100%. GRAFTING ASSESSMENTS: Important Note Grafting assessments are record as percent Total Body Surface Area (%TBSA).

21 Lund and Browder chart

22 Any untoward medical event that : Results in death, Is life-threatening, Requires hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, Results in disability/incapacity, Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, A medically important event (e.g. one that may result in an intervention to prevent one of above outcomes) Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

23 Given the high acuity of diseases and morbidity related to burns, adverse events are NOT to be reported to CERU, only report Serious Adverse Events (SAEs). SAE: Adverse and Serious Life threatening Prolongs Hospital Stay Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity Requires medical or surgical intervention Congenital anomaly/birth defect Other serious medical event Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

24 Unexpected event - is NOT expected due to the progression of the underlying disease or co-morbid illnesses. Example: Seizure in the absence of seizure disorder Not all deaths – only unexpected. Related to the Study Intervention defined as: Possibly Related: suggests that the association of this SAE with the study supplement is unknown and the event is not reasonable supported by other conditions. Probably Related: suggests that a reasonable temporal sequence of this SAE with study supplement administration exists and the association of the event with the study supplement seems likely. Report SERIOUS Adverse Events that are: 1. Unexpected – regardless of relationship to intervention 2. Related to Intervention – regardless of expectedness SAE Identification

25 Do not report death as an SAE. Death – is an outcome not an event If a reportable SAE results in death, record death as the outcome and the underlying cause of death as the SAE. Not all deaths needed to be reported Do not report expected events that lead to death. Example: Patient with severe burns develops sepsis and dies. It is not unexpected and thus does not need to be reported to CERU. NOTE: please follow local ethics requirements for reporting death and adverse events SAEs: Death

26 The relationship of the study intervention to the SAE must be determined by SI Refer to the definitions below when determining relatedness: SAE RELATIONSHIP TO INTERVENTION

27 Worksheets are provided to assist with data collection. SAEs must be completed in REDCap™ within 24 hours of becoming aware of the event. SAE Worksheets

28 Remember to de-identify any supporting documentation that is scanned or faxed to the central study team. SAE Worksheets (cont.)

29 You may report up to 3 SAEs per day in REDCap. If you have more than 3 SAEs to report on any given day, contact the Project Leader. Click on the down error in the box on the grid on the specified day to reveal SAE forms. Record SAEs on the grid on the day the SAE occurred, not the day you are reporting it. SAEs in REDCap

30 Return to the same form to update data as it becomes available. Indicate the report status as updates are provided. SAEs in REDCap (cont.)

31 A subject may be withdrawn from IP at any time: at Substitute Decision Maker or her/his own request, or at the discretion of the investigator for safety, behavioral or administrative reasons. A subject may withdraw (or be withdrawn) from the study prematurely for the following reasons: Serious Adverse Event related to intervention Termination of the study by the sponsor Other (must be specified) Subject Withdrawal

63 IP: Dispensing and Initiation Contact the Pharmacy delegate as soon as the patient is randomized Provide the patient Randomization number Pharmacy staff will access the CRS to view treatment allocation and dispense initial dose IP is dispensed in 5g packets IP is reconstituted and administered bedside by the clinical staff IP should be initiated even if enteral nutrition has not been started Administer IP within 2 hours after randomization

64 Each 5g packet should be mixed with a minimum 50 mL of *water or other non-heated liquid or food, such as: Chocolate Milk Yogurt Applesauce Cereal Mashed Potatoes Do NOT mix IP with soda or highly acidic juices (grapefruit juice, orange juice, lemonade). The IP degrades or becomes unstable in an acidic medium *When mixing in water, use either sterile or tap water, per your standard procedure for mixing enteral formulas. IP Mixing and Administration

65 Interrupted or Missed Does of IP IP should be treated as a medication If at all possible, IP should continue as ordered through procedures or surgery In the event of an interruption or missed doses, you should make up the missed doses on the same calendar: Give additional doses – at least one hour apart (There must be at least one hour between dose administration) Double scheduled doses (Do not give more than double the prescribed dose at one time) Do Not stop IP for procedures or surgery

66 Step by Step IP administration procedures Place a copy at each study patients bedside Administration Procedures

67 Administration Procedures (cont.)

68 Glutamine may contribute to elevated urea levels in patients with renal dysfunction who are not on dialysis. If patient is on dialysis, study intervention should NOT be held or discontinued, regardless of Urea or Cr levels. The clinical team may choose to hold the study intervention if: o the team is uncomfortable with the urea level AND o the patient is not to be dialyzed on the same calendar day Recommended Guideline for holding intervention: o Urea/BUN >21.5 mmol/L or >60 mg/dL Restart study intervention when urea is below the threshold for holding intervention (above), at the discretion of the clinical team. IP Adjustments: Renal Dysfunction

69 IP Dosing Changes IP is based on the patient’s pre-burn dry weight Patients will remain on the initially calculated dose of IP for the duration of the study, with one exception: EXCEPTION: If the patient has a change in body weight sufficient for the clinical team to alter dosage of clinical treatments, the study treatment dose should be adjusted as well. IP does change is triggered by the clinical team changing the weight used to dose clinical treatments. Examples of events that may trigger a change in IP dosing weight: o Amputation o Greater than 10% weight loss Notify the pharmacy of any changes in IP dosing weight Document changes in the patient chart

70 The following tasks are all a part of managing the nutrition received by each of your patients: Utilizing the Standardization of Nutrition Practices Assessing Energy needs upon admission to Acute Care Unit (ACU) Assessing Protein needs upon admission to ACU Prescribing daily Calories and Protein goals Assessing Vitamin and Mineral intake and supplementation Ensuring Glutamine and Arginine supplements are not given Optimizing Enteral Nutrition Delivery Monitoring & Recording Daily Nutritional Adequacy Nutrition Management

71 To reduce the effect of varying nutritional practices as confounding factors on the outcomes of The RE- ENERGIZE study, it is important to standardize (as much as possible) the following: Prescription of Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition Micronutrient delivery Withholding Feeds for High Gastric Residual Volumes We recommend compliance with the following nutritional practices. This will allow for most current practices to continue. Standardization of Nutrition Practices

72 Calculated by using : Indirect Calorimetry, a predictive equation, or a simple weight-based formula On average, this should not lead to a prescription of less than 30 kcal/kg Weight Pre-burn dry weight should be used when calculating energy needs. For patients with a BMI > 35 kg/m 2, if your standard practice is to adjust for obesity, follow your standard practice. If you do not have an obesity adjustment practice, use the formula below. Adjusted Body Weight (ABW) = Ideal Body Weight (IBW) based on a BMI of 25 + [(pre-burn dry weight – IBW) x 0.25] 1) Prescribed Energy Needs Standardization of Nutrition Practices

73 Calculated According to % body surface area burn If > 50% burns, use 1.5g/kg/day to 2.5g/kg/day If < 50% burns, use 1.2g/kg/day to 2 gm/kg/day Pre-burn dry weight should be used when calculating protein needs. For obese patients, if your standard practice is to adjust for obesity, follow your standard practice. If you do not have an obesity adjustment practice, use the formula below. Adjusted Body Weight (ABW) = IBW (BMI 25) + [(pre-burn dry weight – IBW) x 0.25] Standardization of Nutrition Practices 2) Prescribed Protein Needs

74 Should be given as follows or depending upon blood levels (if blood testing is done as part of routine practice): Vitamin C: 0-1000 mg/day Vitamin A: 0-10,000 IU/day Vitamin D: according to serum levels Vitamin E: 0-420 mg/day Zinc (not elemental): 0-220 mg/day Copper Sulfate: 0-4.5 mg/day Selenium: 0-500 micrograms/day Magnesium:0-600 mg/day Folate: 0-1500 mg/day Thiamin: 0-110 mg/day Standardization of Nutrition Practices 3) Vitamin & Mineral Prescription

75 Early supplementation by high dose IV Vitamin C (66 mg/kg/hr) within the first 48 hrs is allowed. Standard multivitamin/mineral preparations are allowed (IV, NG or po). These ranges of vitamins/minerals/trace elements may be provided as supplementation over and beyond what is present in the standard enteral/parenteral nutrition. OR These ranges of vitamins/minerals/trace elements may be provided as the total amounts. This means that the amounts received from enteral/parenteral nutrition are to be subtracted from the total ranges and the remainder is given as supplements. Standardization of Nutrition Practices 3) Vitamin & Mineral Prescription (cont.)

76 i.Arginine enriched formulas (formulas that contain >6gms arginine/L) Pivot ® (13 g/L) Perative ® (8 g/L) would not be allowed ii.Glutamine supplements or formulas enriched with glutamine Impact ® Glutamine (15 g/L) VIVONEX ® Plus (13.5 g/L) GLUTASOLVE ® (15 g/L) /other glutamine powders Juven ® (7 g/L) Formulas with glutamic acid inherently present are allowed To minimize any potential contamination, patients that have received glutamine for >24 hrs before randomization, should NOT be included. Standardization of Nutrition Practices 4) Specialized nutritional formulas are not allowed such as:

77 Enteral nutrition is preferred over parenteral nutrition Minimize interruptions to the delivery of EN – use strategies such as: o Elevating the Head of the Bed o Gastric residual volume threshold of 250 ml o Motility agents o Small bowel feeding tubes Monitor EN volume delivery daily Implement an action plan to ensure prescription is delivered Standardization of Nutrition Practices 5) Optimization of the Delivery of Enteral Nutrition:

78

79 Encourage the use of a glycemic control protocol (or insulin) to: o Avoid hyperglycemia o Minimize risk of iatrogenic hypoglycemia Maintain glucose levels between the following ranges: o 80 mg/dL (min) to 180 mg/dL (max) o 4.4 mmol/L (min) to 10 mmol/L (max) Standardization of Nutrition Practices 6) Glycemic control:

141 Data Quality Management Source Verification Bench Mark Reporting Data Quality Checks and Monitoring

142 Simple and complex data query checks are implemented to ensure, complete, accurate, and consistent data is entered SimpleComplex  Blank field checks  Numeric ranges  Open text (manual DM checking)  Date Logic/Ranges (e.g. no dates in future)  Complex ranges – calculations (e.g. BMI)  Cross-form checks – consistency between forms (e.g. sex listed differently on demographics and SAE forms)  Required forms that are not done (e.g. protocol violation forms)  Blank forms Data Query System

143 Monitoring visits to conduct source verification and confirm study compliance with the protocol and regulatory processes will be conducted throughout the course of the study. After a minimum of 2 patients have been enrolled at a site, the central study team will schedule a time to conduct either an onsite or remote monitoring visit. Visits may include review of: Regulatory documents and binders Source verification for specific enrolled subjects Confirmation the study protocol is being followed Training and delegation of authority logs Monitoring

144 The central study team will review recruitment reports monthly to identify and address slow enrollment and areas of concern Recruitment Reports

145 Data Quality reports will be generated every 4-6 months. Each site with >10 finalized patients will receive an individualized site report. Quality Reports
