Eli Lilly and Company announced withdrawal of its Xigris® [drotrecogin alfa (activated)] product in all markets following results of the PROWESS-SHOCK study, which showed the study did not meet the primary endpoint of a statistically significant reduction in 28-day, all-cause mortality in patients with septic shock. The company is working with regulatory agencies on this withdrawal, and is in the process of notifying healthcare professionals and clinical trial investigators. Physicians should not initiate treatment with Xigris in new patients and should stop ongoing treatment. The Society of Critical Care Medicine will keep the critical care community updated on this issue as appropriate. More information for clinicians about the withdrawal of activated drotrecogin alfa is available on the European Medicines Agency and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration websites.
