Brief Summary

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

Hypothesis:

Intraperitoneal tPA and DNase is well tolerated at a number of different doses. Different doses of tPA and DNase will have a dose-related effect on inflammatory markers (CRP and intraperitoneal white cell count).

Aims:

1. To examine the tolerability of different doses of intraperitoneal tPA and DNase compared to standard treatment.
2. To examine the changes in biochemical and clinical outcomes of PD Peritonitis with the addition of intraperitoneal tPA and DNase to usual therapy.
