About this study

Periprocedural treatment with high-dose statins is known to have cardioprotective and pleiotropic effects, such as anti-thrombotic and anti-inflammatory actions.

-Objective: to determine whether preoperative rosuvastatin loading is independently associated with reduced myocardial ischemia and clinical outcomes in patients with stable angina undergoing isolated off-pump coronary bypass (OPCAB) in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Study design

  • Prospective, double-blinded, single-center study of each 117 subjects enrolled
  • Subjects with acute coronary syndrome who meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled preoperatively.
  • Eligible subjects will be randomized 1:1 to A) High-dose rosuvastatin (n=117) vs. B) Placebo (n=117).
  • The amount of preoperative administration of high-dose rosuvastatin will be 60mg of a total
  • All subjects will undergo OPCAB procedure. - The primary and secondary endpoints will be compared at 30 days and 2 years postoperatively between two groups

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • RosuvastatinDrug

    Patients will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 to A) High-dose rosuvastatin vs. B) Placebo.

    1. Rosuvastatin group : Administration of 40mg of rosuvastatin PO 12 hours before surgery and 20mg of rosuvastatin PO 2hours before surgery and 10mg of rosuvastatin PO daily at postoperative period.
    2. Placebo group : Administration of placebo at 12 hours and 2 hours before surgery and 10mg of rosuvastatin PO daily at postoperative period.

What is being measured

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

  1. Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs)

    Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), which include the following: death from all causes, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and repeat revascularization by percutaneous intervention or bypass surgery within 30 days after OPCAB.

    Measured: 30 days after OPCAB

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The degree of myocardial ischemia and inflammatory

    The degree of myocardial ischemia and inflammatory changes assessed by blood sampling and specific tests (CK-MB, Troponin T, ESR, CRP, hs-CRP) at the early period after OPCAB.

    Measured: immediate, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 7 days after OPCAB

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Rosuvastatin in people with A Total of 234 Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Who Will Undergo OPCAB., run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Nov 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 South Korea. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) (time frame: 30 days after OPCAB). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01971606, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Nov 2013.
