DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This R21 application is in response to NHLBI RFA-HL-12-004 "Maximizing the Scientific Value of the NHLBI Biologic Specimen Respository: Scientific Opportunities". Acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) are common syndromes of acute respiratory failure with an incidence of 180,000 per year in the United States. Advances in mechanical ventilation and supportive care have led to a decline in short-term mortality in ALI/ARDS necessitating the enrollment of increasing numbers of patients to adequately power studies of new therapies. In order to target therapeutic trials to the patients most likely to die, new methods are needed for predicting clinical outcomes in ALI/ARDS. Plasma biomarkers of lung epithelial injury and inflammation, measured early in the course of ALI/ARDS, are promising tools for predicting clinical outcomes. Among these biomarkers, SP-D, a marker of type II lung epithelial injury and IL-8, a marker of inflammation and neutrophil chemotaxis are highly associated with short term mortality. When added to clinical predictors, measurement of these plasma biomarkers significantly improves mortality prediction in preliminary studies. To advance these biomarkers to clinical application, large scale validation is needed. We propose to validate SP-D and IL-8 as predictors of clinical outcome in 888 patients enrolled in the NHLBI ARDS Network Fluid And Catheter Treatment Trial (FACTT). In addition, to enhance the generalizability of our findings, we will also validate SP-D and IL-8 in a heterogeneous population of 689 patients with ALI/ARDS drawn from the Validating Acute Lung Injury biomarkers for Diagnosis (VALID) study. The receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE), a marker of type I lung epithelial injury, is also a strong predictor of mortality in ALI/ARDS but has not been compared to SPD and IL-8. Therefore, to test the overall hypothesis that SP-D, IL-8 and RAGE are predictors of clinical outcomes in ALI/ARDS that can be used to select patients for enrollment in future clinical trials, specimens from the NHLBI ARDS Network's FACTT trial that are currently stored in the NHLBI Biospecimen Repository will be utilized in the following Aims: Specific Aim 1: To validate the prognostic value of plasma levels of SP-D and IL-8 combined with clinical predictors for death and other important clinical outcomes in 888 patients with early ALI/ARDS enrolled in the NHLBI ARDS Network's Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial. Specific Aim 2: To validate the prognostic value of plasma levels of SP-D and IL-8 combined with clinical predictors for death and important clinical outcomes in a more heterogeneous patient population consisting of 689 patients with ALI/ARDS enrolled in the VALID study. Specific Aim 3: To compare the differential and combined prognostic value of plasma levels of RAGE to SP-D and IL-8 in these two patient cohorts for prediction of important clinical outcomes, including mortality. Validation of these biomarkers could have a major impact on design of future clinical trials in ALI/ARDS, allowing selection of the sickest patients for enrollment, and reducing the time and funds required to test new therapies.

描述(申请人提供)：本R21申请是对NHLBI RFA-HL-12-004《最大化NHLBI生物标本库的科学价值：科学机遇》的响应。急性肺损伤和急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ALI/ARDS)是急性呼吸衰竭的常见综合征，在美国每年的发病率为18万。机械通气和支持性护理的进步已导致ALI/ARDS患者短期死亡率的下降，因此有必要招募越来越多的患者来充分支持新疗法的研究。为了针对最有可能死亡的患者进行治疗试验，需要新的方法来预测ALI/ARDS的临床结果。在ALI/ARDS病程早期测量的肺上皮损伤和炎症的血浆生物标志物是预测临床结果的有前途的工具。在这些生物标志物中，肺第二型上皮损伤的标志物SP-D和炎症和中性粒细胞趋化的标志物IL-8与短期死亡率高度相关。当加入临床预测指标时，这些血浆生物标记物的测量在初步研究中显著改善了死亡率预测。为了将这些生物标记物推向临床应用，还需要大规模的验证。我们建议在参加NHLBI ARDS网络液体和导管治疗试验(FACTT)的888名患者中验证SP-D和IL-8作为临床结果的预测因子。此外，为了增强我们研究结果的概括性，我们还将验证SP-D和IL-8在689名ALI/ARDS患者中的有效性，这些患者来自急性肺损伤生物标记物用于诊断(有效)验证研究。晚期糖基化终产物受体(RAGE)是I型肺上皮损伤的标志，也是ALI/ARDS死亡率的有力预测因子，但尚未与SPD和IL-8进行比较。因此，为了检验SP-D、IL-8和RAGE是ALI/ARDS临床转归的预测因子可用于选择患者参加未来临床试验的总体假设，目前存储在NHLBI生物谱库中的NHLBI ARDS Network FACTT试验的样本将用于以下目标：特定目标1：在NHLBI ARDS Network的液体和导管治疗试验中，验证血浆SP-D和IL-8水平与死亡和其他重要临床结局的临床预测指标相结合的预后价值。具体目的2：在纳入有效研究的689例ALI/ARDS患者中，验证血浆SP-D和IL-8水平结合临床预测因子对死亡和重要临床结局的预测价值。具体目标3：比较这两组患者血浆RAGE水平与SP-D和IL-8水平在预测包括死亡率在内的重要临床结果方面的区别和联合预后价值。这些生物标志物的验证可能会对ALI/ARDS未来临床试验的设计产生重大影响，允许选择病情最严重的患者进行登记，并减少测试新疗法所需的时间和资金。
