About this study

Official title: Effects of Diltiazem and/or N-Acétylcystéine Versus Placebo on hémodynamiques and Biological Repercussions of the Ischaemia-réperfusion During the Coronary Surgery With Beating Heart

Less oxidative stress occurs during off-pump than on-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery but warm ischaemia-reperfusion injury may occur following transient coronary artery clamping. The aim of this study was to compare the preventive effects of diltiazem and N-acetylcysteine (NAC), alone or in combination, on biomarkers of myocardial damage and oxidative stress during off-pump CABG surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Reduce the percentage 40% of patients operated on a beating heart to 10% as a result of treatment with diltiazem and N-acetylcysteine

    Choosing as main biological variable rate cTnI cardiospecific, above the threshold of detection (0.3 mcg / L) in 40% of patients operated on a beating heart hoping to reduce this percentage to 10% as a result of treatment with diltiazem and N-acetylcysteine

    Measured: during ischaemia-reperfusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Diltiazem, Acetylcystein and diltiazem and acetylcystein in people with Ischaemia-reperfusion Injury, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reduce the percentage 40% of patients operated on a beating heart to 10% as a result of treatment with diltiazem and N-acetylcysteine (time frame: during ischaemia-reperfusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jan 2013.
