Trial summary

It is being revealed that the more severe the damage of the endothelial glycocalyx (EG) layer, the more likely it is that the prognosis of the patients is poor. For that reason, research is being actively conducted on methods for reducing damage and promoting recovery of the EG layer.The natural regeneration process… Read more about this study

About this study

It is being revealed that the more severe the damage of the endothelial glycocalyx (EG) layer, the more likely it is that the prognosis of the patients is poor. For that reason, research is being actively conducted on methods for reducing damage and promoting recovery of the EG layer.The natural regeneration process of the EG layer is up to 7 days. Considering the fact that it is quiet slow, reducing the damage of EG layer is considered to be very important for improving the prognosis of patients undergoing surgery, but there is no clinically proven method.

One of the ways receiving attention to reduce damage of EG layer is to stabilize the layer through fluid therapy with albumin. The purpose of this study is to compare the protective effect of the EG layer according to the type of fluid (balanced crystalloid solution vs. 5% albumin) during surgery in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.

Being tested
Plasma solution-A injection, 5% Albumin

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Plasma concentration of Syndecan-1

    The investigators compare the protective effect of EG layer according to the type of fluid used during surgery in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. (Comparison of the plasma concentration of Syndecan-1 between the two groups.)

    Measured: Before induction of anesthesia (1-hour before the start of surgery)

  2. Plasma concentration of Syndecan-1

    The investigators compare the protective effect of EG layer according to the type of fluid used during surgery in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. (Comparison of the plasma concentration of Syndecan-1 between the two groups.)

    Measured: At the time of returning the heart in place after coronary artery anastomoses (1~2 hour before the end of surgery)

  3. Plasma concentration of Syndecan-1

    The investigators compare the protective effect of EG layer according to the type of fluid used during surgery in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. (Comparison of the plasma concentration of Syndecan-1 between the two groups.)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Plasma concentration of Haparan sulfate

    Heparan sulfate is one of the indicators of EG damage, and ANP \& TNF-α, IL-6 are known to correlate with EG damage. So in this study, the investigators measure the plasma concentrations of Haparan sulfate, ANP \& TNF-α, IL-6 as well as Syndecan-1, and also identify the overall short-term prognosis of the patients.

  6. Plasma concentration of TNF-α/IL-6

    Heparan sulfate is one of the indicators of EG damage, and ANP \& TNF-α, IL-6 are known to correlate with EG damage. So in this study, the investigators measure the plasma concentrations of Haparan sulfate, ANP \& TNF-α, IL-6 as well as Syndecan-1, and also identify the overall short-term prognosis of the patients.

    Measured: Before induction of anesthesia (1hr before the start of surgery)

  7. Plasma concentration of TNF-α/IL-6

    Heparan sulfate is one of the indicators of EG damage, and ANP \& TNF-α, IL-6 are known to correlate with EG damage. So in this study, the investigators measure the plasma concentrations of Haparan sulfate, ANP \& TNF-α, IL-6 as well as Syndecan-1, and also identify the overall short-term prognosis of the patients.

    Measured: At the time of sternum being closed (30min~1hr before the end of surgery)

  8. Composite rate of morbidity and mortality

    Composite morbidity and mortality (Mortality, Stroke, Re-operation, Sternal infection, Prolonged ventilation, Renal dysfunction)

    Measured: If the hospitalization period is within 30 days, follow-up is done up to 30 days.

  9. Composite rate of morbidity and mortality

    Composite morbidity and mortality (Mortality, Stroke, Re-operation, Sternal infection, Prolonged ventilation, Renal dysfunction)

    Measured: If the hospitalization period exceeds 30 days, follow-up is done throughout the hospitalization period.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Plasma concentration of Syndecan-1 (time frame: Before induction of anesthesia (1-hour before the start of surgery)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03699462, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Nov 2020.
