简要总结
This study evaluates the efficacy of the addition of prednisolone to conventional initial treatment (intravenous immunoglobulin [IVIG] plus aspirin) in reducing coronary artery lesion in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) .
详细描述
This is a multicenter, open-label, blind-endpoints, randomized controlled trial at more than 10 hospitals in China. The investigators enrolled KD children diagnosed within 10 days of onset. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the control group (receiving 2g/kg IVIG and 30 mg/kg aspirin) or the intervention group (receiving 2 g/kg IVIG, 30 mg/kg aspirin and additional 2 mg/kg prednisolone). Baseline characteristics of each participant will be collected, including sex, age of onset, height, body weight, subtype of KD, fever days before initial IVIG, echocardiographic findings at enrolment, and a series of pre-IVIG laboratory tests. Two-dimensional echocardiography will be performed at admission, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months,and 12 months after onset of KD to assess the coronary artery lesions.

研究组 & 干预措施
the standard group
- IVIG 2g/kg once, given within 12 to 24 hours;
- Aspirin 30 mg/kg in oral per day (given in 3 divided doses), then 3 to 5 mg/kg per day when fever subsides for 3 days and C-reactive protein (CRP) is normal. Aspirin will be continued for at least 6 weeks after onset of illness.
干预措施: IVIG (Drug)
the standard group
- IVIG 2g/kg once, given within 12 to 24 hours;
- Aspirin 30 mg/kg in oral per day (given in 3 divided doses), then 3 to 5 mg/kg per day when fever subsides for 3 days and C-reactive protein (CRP) is normal. Aspirin will be continued for at least 6 weeks after onset of illness.
干预措施: Aspirin (Drug)
the standard+prednisolone group
- IVIG 2g/kg once, given within 12 to 24 hours;
- Aspirin 30 mg/kg in oral per day (given in 3 divided doses), then 3 to 5 mg/kg per day when fever subsides for 3 days and CRP is normal. Aspirin will be continued for at least 6 weeks after onset of illness.
- Intravenous methylprednisolone 1.6 mg/kg per day (given in 2 divided doses) for 3 days, which is administered concurrently with the initial IVIG infusion and completed within 30-60 minutes, then changed to oral prednisolone 2 mg/kg when fever subsides for 3 days . If CRP is normal, the oral dose will be reduced every 5 days from 2 mg/kg to 1 mg/kg to 0.5 mg/kg (tapered over 15 days). Then prednisolone will be discontinued.
干预措施: IVIG (Drug)
the standard+prednisolone group
- IVIG 2g/kg once, given within 12 to 24 hours;

- Intravenous methylprednisolone 1.6 mg/kg per day (given in 2 divided doses) for 3 days, which is administered concurrently with the initial IVIG infusion and completed within 30-60 minutes, then changed to oral prednisolone 2 mg/kg when fever subsides for 3 days . If CRP is normal, the oral dose will be reduced every 5 days from 2 mg/kg to 1 mg/kg to 0.5 mg/kg (tapered over 15 days). Then prednisolone will be discontinued.
干预措施: Aspirin (Drug)
the standard+prednisolone group

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of coronary artery lesions(CAL) at one month of illness
时间窗: at one month of illness
Two-dimensional echocardiography will be performed to evaluate CAL at 1 month of illness. The measurement of each patient included the diameter of the left main coronary artery (LMCA), the left anterior descending artery (LAD), the left circumflex coronary artery (LCX), and the proximal and middle segments of the right coronary artery (RCA). Z score of each coronary artery will be calculated(Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2011, 24(1).). CAL is defined as z≥2of any coronary artery of LMCA, LAD, LCX, and the proximal and middle segment of the RCA.
