    Sepsis is a clinical syndrome defined as a systemic inflammatory response to infection. Eritoran is a synthetic lipid A derivative that competes with lipopolysaccharide in binding to the identical site of myeloid differentiation-2/toll-like receptor 4 complex. Eritoran is effective to decrease the septic mortality of Gram-negative bacteria-infected animals. Eritoran has been highlighted as a drug candidate for treating endotoxemia in the phase I clinical studies with health human volunteers. A phase II trial of eritoran has been conducted in the patients with severe sepsis. Intravenous infusion of eritoran reduces the mortality rate, as compared with placebo group, in sepsis patients who are at a high risk of mortality according to the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation-II scores. A phase III study of eritoran has been completed in 2011. The results seem to be disappointing as there was not a statistically significant difference between the eritoran treatment and the placebo group in the all-cause mortality at day 28 monitored in sepsis patients with a high risk of death. In this review, we focus on the rational for the use of eritoran in sepsis as well as its clinical applications.
