简要总结
Rationale: Timely and effective reperfusion by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is currently the most effective treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, permanent myocardial injury related to the ischemia and subsequent reperfusion is observed in the vast majority (88%) of patients and harbours a risk of heart failure development. Administration of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been shown to protect the heart from "ischemia reperfusion injury" in various experimental models. Data in humans suggests that the H2S-releasing agent sodium thiosulfate (STS) can be administered safely.
Objective: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of STS compared to placebo treatment on myocardial infarct size in patients presenting with STEMI and treated with PCI
Study design: a multicenter, double blind, randomized controlled clinical trial. A total of 380 patients, aged 18 years and above, undergoing primary PCI for a first STEMI and deemed amenable, by the investigator, to be treated with STS 12.5g intravenously (i.v.) or matched placebo immediately after arrival at the catheterization laboratory (cath-lab) and a repeated dose administered 6 hours after the first dose, on top of standard treatment. Primary endpoint is infarct size as measured with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR-imaging) 4 months after randomization.
详细描述
Introduction and rationale:
Despite the recent advances in treatment, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) frequently results in permanent myocardial injury imposing an increased risk for adverse cardiac remodelling, diminished cardiac function and the development of heart failure. Decreased cardiac function after PPCI is associated with impaired prognosis. In addition to PPCI, cornerstones pharmacological treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) includes; (1) treatment direct against blood coagulation with platelet aggregation inhibitors, (2) cholesterol lowering treatment with statins; (3) sympathicus inhibition by beta-blocker treatment; and (4) inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. These therapies were successfully implemented over the last decades and resulted in substantial improvements of prognosis after AMI.
Although timely PPCI has a tremendous benefit in AMI, not only ischemia but also reperfusion itself is considered to cause myocardial injury and cardiomyocyte death. This phenomena is referred to as "ischemia reperfusion injury" in literature and is caused by the sudden restoration of blood flow and its accompanying intracellular acidity (pH) change and calcium overload, cardiomyocyte hypercontracture, myocardial inflammation, oxidative stress generation and mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening. Reducing ischemia reperfusion injury is expected to further decrease infarct size, decreasing adverse cardiac remodelling and improving cardiac function as well as clinical outcome.
The investigators expect a substantial beneficial effect of H2S in the prevention of ischemia reperfusion injury. H2S is the third endogenous gaseous transmitter next to carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NO) and is involved as a physiological mediator in several body organ and tissue processes. H2S is synthesized endogenously by enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways. A non-enzymatic pathway is by the reductive reaction with thiosulfate, with pyruvate acting as a hydrogen donor. Thiosulfate itself acts as an intermediate in the sulfur metabolism of cysteine and is known as a metabolite of H2S and in that way also able to produce H2S, especially under hypoxic conditions.
H2S has been shown to protect from myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in various experimental animal models; e.g. it reduces infarct size and apoptosis and attenuates cardiac function. Inhibition of leukocyte endothelial cell interactions, neutralization of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the reduction of apoptotic signalling are the suggested as additional mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective effect of H2S. H2S has been shown to attenuate myocardial ischemia reperfusion in cellular, rodents and porcine animal models. H2S can be safely administered intravenously as STS to humans. STS has been demonstrated to detoxify cyanide poisoning in 1895 in dogs, is used in humans since 1933 for the treatment of cyanide intoxication, is used since the eighties for treatment of vascular calcifications in end-stage renal disease, and is used to prevent toxicity of cisplatin treatment. More recently, studies have shown STS can delay the progression of coronary artery calcification in haemodialysis patients. The aim of the GIPS-IV trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of STS compared to placebo treatment on myocardial infarct size in patients presenting with STEMI undergoing PPCI in a double blind randomized controlled clinical trial.

研究组 & 干预措施
Sodium thiosulfate
25 gram sodium thiosulfate is given intravenously in two doses of 12.5 gram (50mL) dissolved in 250 ml sodium chloride 0.9%. Upon arrival at the cath-lab, after confirming in- and exclusion criteria and obtaining verbal informed consent the first dose, will be administered in 20 minutes (infusion rate 15 mL/min). After infusion the patient will receive primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Post-PCI the patient will be admitted to the coronary care unit where he will receive the second dose, 6 hours after start of the first dose. The second dose is administered in 30 minutes (infusion rate 10 mL/min). At 4 months infarct size is assessed by LGE cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
