Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this project is to determine the effect of various interventions to improve patient outcome as defined by hospital free days at day 90 for adult patients undergoing elective surgery. Within this project, multiple studies may be conducted.

The structure of this project permits:

  • the testing of multiple treatments at the same time within the same patient
  • the use of early study results to provide better treatment options to future patients
  • the removal of treatments which are shown to be less effective than the other treatments
  • the addition of new treatments

The first study to be conducted under this project (IRB STUDY19090186) is the Strategies to Promote ResiliencY (SPRY) clinical trial (IRB PRO18060038).

The SPRY clinical trial will determine the effectiveness of Metformin on improving surgical outcomes among nondiabetic older adults who are scheduled for elective surgery.

Arms & Interventions

SPRY: Metformin LD-SC (low-dose, short course)

LD-SC (low-dose, short course) Participants take Metformin ER 500 mg daily for 7-28 days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin LD-IC (low-dose, intermediate course)

LD-IC (low-dose, intermediate course) Participants take Metformin ER 500 mg daily for 29-90 days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin LD-LC (low-dose, long course)

LD-LC (low-dose, long course) Participants take Metformin ER 500 mg daily for 90+ days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin ID-SC (intermediate-dose, short course)

ID-SC (intermediate-dose, short course) Participants take Metformin ER 1000 mg daily for 7-28 days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin ID-IC (intermediate-dose, intermediate course)

ID-IC (intermediate-dose, intermediate course) Participants take Metformin ER 1000 mg daily for 29-90 days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin ID-LC (intermediate-dose, long course)

ID-LC (intermediate-dose, long course) Participants take Metformin ER 1000 mg daily for 90+ days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin HD-SC (high-dose, short course)

HD-SC (high-dose, short course) After a 7 day run-in of Metformin ER 1000 mg, participants take Metformin ER 1500 mg daily for 7-28 days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin HD-IC (high-dose, intermediate course)

HD-IC (high-dose, intermediate course) After a 7 day run-in of Metformin ER 1000 mg, participants take Metformin ER 1500 mg daily for 29-90 days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Metformin HD-LC (high-dose, long course)

HD-LC (high-dose, long course) After a 7 day run-in of Metformin ER 1000 mg, participants take Metformin ER 1500 mg daily for 90+ days prior to their elective surgical procedure as determined by the patient's scheduling of their surgery. Participants take this same dose of Metformin ER for 90 days after their surgical procedure.

Intervention: Metformin ER

SPRY: Placebo

Participants are randomized to receive dose matched placebo to take daily for either short-, intermediate-, or long-course.

Intervention: Placebo

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Hospital Free Days (HFD)

Time Frame: Day 90 from the date of the elective surgical procedure

90 - the number of days during the index stay minus the number of days readmitted during the 90 days after surgery. Death within 90 days after surgery is recorded as -1 HFD.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Number of Participants With Surgical Site Infection(Day 30 from the date of the elective surgical procedure)
  • Venous Thromboembolic Events Including Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism(Day 90 from the date of the elective surgical procedure)
  • Incidence of ICU Admission After Surgery(Participants will be followed for the duration of their hospital admission, estimated to be 2-4 days in the event ICU admission is needed)
  • Incidence and Total Number of Reoperation/Reintervention(Day 90 from the date of the elective surgical procedure)
  • Number of Participants With Surgical Site Occurrence(Day 30 from the date of the elective surgical procedure)
  • ICU (Intensive Care Unit) Length of Stay (LOS)(Participants will be followed for the duration of their hospital admission, estimated to be 2-4 days, in the event admission to an ICU is needed)
  • Organ Failure Free Days(Day 30 from the date of the elective surgical procedure)
  • Mortality(Day 90 from the date of the elective surgical procedure)
  • Hospital Readmission Rate(Day 90 from the date of the elective surgical procedure)
  • Gastrointestinal Intolerance(From enrollment to day 90 after surgery)
  • Discharge Disposition(Participants will be followed for the duration of their hospital admission, estimated to be 2-4 days, in the event admission to an ICU is needed)
  • In Hospital Mortality(Participants will be followed for the duration of their hospital admission, estimated to be 2-4 days, in the event admission to an ICU is needed.)
  • Hospital Length of Stay (LOS)(Participants will be followed for the duration of their hospital admission, estimated to be 2-4 days)
  • SAE (Serious Adverse Event) as Defined in Core Protocol (Mild, Moderate, Severe, Life Threatening/Disabling; Adjudicated as Related, Possibly Related, Unrelated)(From enrollment to day 90 after surgery)
