CardioPulmonary Resuscitation With Argon (CPAr) Trial (CPAr)
Study Overview
Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
The trial is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, single blinded, phase I and pre marketing study in patients resuscitated from Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The adoption of a randomized design in a phase I trial aiming at a safety assessment of a new ventilation mixture in a very critical population is justified and necessary in the absence of reliably comparable populations on which to base estimates of a potential excess of adverse events/side effects.
All eligible patients will be treated in full and documented compliance with the European ResuscitationCouncil (ERC)/European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (international guidelines and local post resuscitation protocols). Since a reliable estimate of the incidence and characteristics of the clinical events assumed as endpoints is not available in the literature, a randomized assignment is the only way to ensure a strict comparability for both the periods of data collection of safety end points (to be assessed blindly by the events Committee), the four hours of duration of study treatment, and the longer period of possibly related clinical events during 6 months follow up.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention
Patients will be ventilated with a mixture of Ar 70%/O2 30% for 4 hours
|
Ventilation with Ar 70%/O2 30% in comatose patients resuscitated from OHCA with the use of an experimental mechanical ventilator.
|
No Intervention: Control-standard
Ventilation with a FiO2 of 30% in room air is continued for 4 hours.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
Time Frame: 1 month
|
The incidence, the timing, and the duration of the need to stop Ar 70% treatment in order to maintain the SPO2> 90%. The incidence of potentially Ar-attributable hemodynamic adverse events (i.e. arterial hypotension not responsive to fluids and/or vasoactive/inotropic drugs). |
1 month

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Myocardial preservation
Time Frame: 96 hours
|
Ar effect on myocardial protection is assessed through measure of hs-cTnT release
|
96 hours
|
Neuronal preservation
Time Frame: 96 hours
|
Ar effect on neuronal preservation is assessed through evaluation of NSE preservation and ultimately on survival (CPC score) will be evaluated.
|
96 hours
|
Brain injury
Time Frame: 96 hours
|
Ar effect on brain injury is assessed through MRI (imaging) if patient remains comatose
|
96 hours
|
Survival
Time Frame: 6 months
|
effect of argon on survival after cardiac arrest (days)
|
6 months
|
Neurological recovery
Time Frame: 6 months
|
Neurological functional recovery is assessed with the CPC score
|
6 months
|
Multiorgan function
Time Frame: 96 hours
|
Multiorgan function is assessed through the evaluation of sequential organ failure assessment score (SOFA). The score sequentially assesses the presence and severity of dysfunctions in six organ systems: respiratory, cardiovascular, coagulation, hepatic, neurological and renal scoring 0 to 4 points per each one of the following: PaO2-fiO2 ratio; Mean arterial pressure (mmHg) or vasoactive treatment; Creatinine (mg/dL) or 24-h diuresis (ml/24h); Platelet count (x103/mm3); Serum bilirubin (mg/dL); Glasgow coma scale The following markers are also assessed: transaminases (UI/L) Pancreatic amilase, lipase (UI/L) |
