简要总结
Rationale: Influenza is known to trigger acute myocardial infarction and recent trials in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) have revealed reduction in deaths in those receiving influenza vaccine. However, all these trials are from temperate countries with definite seasonality of influenza vaccine. The only trial of influenza vaccine outside of temperate regions in heart failure patients was negative. Thus, a trial of influenza vaccine in India, with large number of coronary artery disease patients, is needed to make an informed decision on whether similar benefit would accrue in our patients.
Novelty: No randomised trial on benefits of influenza vaccine in patients of MI available from tropical and developing countries.
Objectives: To assess the impact of influenza vaccine in reducing major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with recent MI.
Methods: A total of 3600 patients with recent acute MI (ST elevation and Non-ST elevation MI in previous 12 weeks) will be randomised to receive seasonal inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine or placebo saline injection. The primary end point will be reduction in major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) of all-cause death, non-fatal MI, non-fatal stroke and all-cause hospitalization. The patients will be followed up for a minimum of 12 months.
*Expected outcomes:*The primary outcome will be a composite of all cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke and all-cause hospitalizations using standardized criteria from time of randomization during the peak influenza season. Secondary outcome will be the composite outcome of all cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke and all cause hospitalizations during the entire period of the study; Individual components of the composite outcome- all-cause death; cardiovascular death; non-fatal myocardial infarction; non-fatal stroke; all-cause hospitalisation; hospitalisation for heart failure; and pneumonia will be the other secondary outcomes
