Exclusion Criteria
  • Planned valve replacement, carotid artery or aortic surgery, distal coronary endarterectomy,surgical ablation for cardiac arrhythmia, or ventricular aneurysmectomy, alone or with CABG surgery (repair for mild to moderate mitral valve disease with concomitant CABG is not excluded).
  • Planned or staged major surgery within 30 days of CABG surgery
  • CABG surgery using intermittent aortic cross clamping without cardioplegia.
  • Minimally invasive surgery (ie, without use of CPB).
  • MI within 5 days prior to surgery.
  • Pre-operative or planned intra operative/postoperative use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), ventricular assist device (VAD), extra-corporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO), or other mechanical hemodynamic assist device.
  • History or presence of gout or uric acid nephrolithiasis.
  • Serum creatinine >2 mg/dL (180 µmol/L).
  • Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >2 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN).
  • Adenosine, aminophylline, nicotinic acid, pentoxifylline, theophylline, and any cardioplegia solution containing adenosine, dipyridamole or lidoflazine within 24 hours before surgery:
  • Dipyridamole within 2 days and allopurinol or febuxostat within 4 days before surgery
  • Food and drinks containing caffeine, theobromines or methylxanthines (such as coffee, tea, colas, some 'energy' drinks or chocolate) within 12 hours before surgery.
  • Pregnancy

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of All-cause Death, Non-fatal Stroke, and Need for Mechanical Support for Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction (SLVD) (Intent-to-Treat Population)Up to Post-Operative Day 28

Incidence of all-cause death, non-fatal stroke, or need for mechanical support for SLVD (any component and composite) through post-operative Day 28 during and following CABG and administration of acadesine or placebo. Components defined as follows: All-cause death: Death from any cause, Non-fatal Stoke: occurrence of a stoke that was confirmed and adjudicated by Clinical Endpoints Committee that did not result in death, and Mechanical Support for SLVD: New use of any mechanical support for ≥1 hour for treatment of low cardiac output.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of Cardiovascular Death, Non-fatal Stroke, and Need for Mechanical Support for SLVD (Intent-to-Treat Population)Up to Post-Operative Day 28

Incidence of cardiovascular death, non-fatal stroke, and need for mechanical support for SLVD (any component and composite) through post-operative Day 28 during and following CABG and administration of acadesine or placebo. Components defined as follows: Cardiovascular death: Death due to cardiovascular causes, Non-fatal Stroke: occurrence of a stroke that was confirmed and adjudicated by Clinical Endpoints Committee that did not result in death, and Mechanical Support for SLVD: New use of any mechanical support for ≥1 hour for treatment of low cardiac output.
