Vitamin E and N-acetylcysteine for Preventing Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Artery Catheterization

November 29, 2018 updated by: Rajaie Cardiovascular Medical and Research Center

Antioxidants for Preventing Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Artery Catheterization

In a double-blinded randomized clinical trial, all patients undergoing coronary artery catheterization who will met our criteria, will be enrolled into three groups to receive either, vitamin e, n-acetylcysteine, or placebo. The aim of study will be to compare the superiority of vitamin e over n-acetylcysteine for the prevention of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients aged ≥18 years with chronic kidney disease who undergo coronary catheterization will be enrolled into the study if they meet the inclusion criteria. Patients will be randomly assigned into three groups in a 1:1:1 ratio (Computer-generated random number will be used to assign a patient in either group): we will use simple randomization for assigning each patient in a group. The participants, physicians and outcome assessors will be blinded throughout the trial until the opening of the randomization cold.

All patients will be entered into three group and they will be given normal saline 0.9%, vitamin E, NAC, and the placebos of both regimens. The vitamin E will be given as a soft gel capsule and its placebo will have the same shape and taste. The NAC will be given as an effervescent tablet with a glass of water for consumption and its placebo will also have the same shape and taste. These drugs will be given in addition to the routine hydration therapy which will be given to all patients.

Primary outcome will be the development of CIAKI. Secondary outcomes will be the development of major adverse cardiovascular events and any events till evaluating the CIAKI within 48-72 hours after intervention.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Patients aged ≥18 years with baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2 (based on the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study group formula) who undergo coronary catheterization (i.e. coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]) will be invited to the study if they meet the inclusion criteria: stable angina with ischemia and indication for coronary angiography, non-ST-segment elevation (NSTE) acute coronary syndrome (ACS) requiring an early invasive strategy, and patients undergoing elective PCI .

Exclusion Criteria:

acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, high-risk NSTE-ACS warranting emergency coronary angiography (<2 hours), cardiogenic shock, pulmonary edema, overt heart failure and/or ejection fraction <30%, ACS undergoing coronary angiography or angioplasty during the previous 5 days, sensitivity to contrast medium, recent administration of contrast medium for any reason, AKI, history of dialysis, pregnancy, newly prescribed angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers, bleeding and/or coagulopathy diseases, and consumption of nephrotoxic drugs, vitamin E, vitamin C, or N-acetylcysteine (NAC) at least 48 hours before intervention.
