Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The two co-primary objectives of this study are to assess in Japanese patients with severe sepsis and/or septic shock: 1) the safety and tolerability of two different doses of intravenous AZD9773 and 2) the PK of AZD9773.

The secondary objective is to make a preliminary assessment of the pharmacodynamics of two different doses of intravenous AZD9773 in Japanese patients with severe sepsis and/or septic shock.
