VENUS: Septic Gene Expression Using SeptiCyte
NCT02127502 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The investigators seek to evaluate a new test for determining presence of infection/sepsis as compared to non-infection/systemic inflammatory response syndrome among critically ill patients within the first 24 hours of their being hospitalized in an intensive care unit (ICU) within the first 7 days of hospitalization. The primary purpose of the study is to validate SeptiCyte® Lab in this population as compared to: 1) the doctor's impression and 2) existing clinical parameters. The investigators also hope to assess how well a related, new blood test, SeptID® identifies different types of infection, as compared to cultures and other lab tests.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02127502
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02127502 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 379 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Immunexpress, which has 1 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Sepsis appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 0 interventions. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02127502 reports 6 study locations spanning 5 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Illinois, Georgia, Maryland. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
