Impact of High-dose Pretreatment of Rosuvastatin in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Following Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass: Results From the HIROP-ACS (HIgh-dose Pretreatment of Rosuvastatin During Off-Pump Coronary Bypass in Acute Coronary Syndrome) Study

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
A Total of 234 Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Who Will Undergo OPCAB.
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01971606
Lead Sponsor
Yonsei University
Brief Summary

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

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs)30 days after OPCAB

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.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The degree of myocardial ischemia and inflammatoryimmediate, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 7 days after OPCAB

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.
