Breakthrough Platform Trial for PCAS (BPT-PCAS)
Breakthrough Platform Trial for Post Cardiac Arrest Syndrome
The goal of this platform clinical trial is to evaluate whether specific post-cardiac arrest care strategies can improve neurological recovery and survival in adult patients who remain comatose after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) following cardiac arrest and require intensive care management.
This multicenter cluster-randomized crossover platform trial (BPT-PCAS) evaluates post-cardiac arrest care strategies within a shared master protocol structure. Participating hospitals are randomized at the institutional level to predefined treatment strategies for fixed study periods and subsequently cross over to alternative strategies according to a predefined allocation schedule.
The platform is designed to accommodate multiple independent intervention domains, each evaluating a different post-cardiac arrest care strategy under shared eligibility criteria, infrastructure, data management systems, and follow-up procedures. Participants may be enrolled in one or more active intervention domains according to platform availability and eligibility.
Participants will receive the post-cardiac arrest care strategy assigned to their participating hospital during the study period while otherwise undergoing standard intensive care management according to local practice and study protocols.
Participants will be followed for neurological outcomes including modified Rankin Scale (mRS), mortality, and safety outcomes at hospital discharge, 30 days, and 90 days after hospital admission.

Detailní popis
BPT-PCAS (Breakthrough Platform Trial for Post-Cardiac Arrest Syndrome) is a multicenter platform trial designed to evaluate whether early post-cardiac arrest care strategies can improve neurological recovery and survival in adult patients who remain comatose after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) following cardiac arrest and require intensive care management.
Despite advances in resuscitation and intensive care medicine, prognosis after post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS) remains poor, particularly because of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury and systemic circulatory dysfunction. Many aspects of post-resuscitation intensive care management, including positioning strategies and targeted temperature management, are widely used in clinical practice but remain supported by limited high-quality randomized evidence, particularly during the ultra-early post-ROSC period.
BPT-PCAS is designed as a pragmatic multicenter cluster-randomized crossover platform trial conducted in Japan. Participating hospitals are randomized at the institutional level to predefined treatment strategies for fixed study periods. Hospitals subsequently cross over to alternative treatment strategies every 6 months according to a predefined allocation schedule. Randomization occurs at the hospital level rather than the individual patient level in order to facilitate immediate implementation of time-sensitive post-cardiac arrest interventions during emergency care.
The platform uses a master protocol structure with shared eligibility criteria, infrastructure, data management systems, and follow-up procedures across multiple intervention domains. Adult patients with persistent coma after ROSC who require intensive care are screened for eligibility under the master protocol. Individual domains may apply additional domain-specific inclusion and exclusion criteria.
The current platform includes multiple intervention domains evaluating different post-cardiac arrest care strategies.
One domain evaluates early head positioning strategies during intensive care management. This domain compares head elevation positioning (30°-45°) with near-supine positioning (0°-10°) initiated early after ICU admission in order to determine whether head positioning influences neurological recovery, mortality, and complications associated with cerebral perfusion, intracranial pressure, or respiratory management.
Another domain evaluates early targeted temperature management strategies in patients with non-shockable cardiac arrest rhythms. This domain compares early hypothermia (33-34°C) with normothermia (36-37.5°C) initiated as early as possible after ROSC in order to evaluate whether early temperature control improves neurological outcomes and survival.
Participants may simultaneously participate in more than one intervention domain when eligibility criteria are met. Aside from the assigned study interventions, all other intensive care management is performed according to local institutional practice and study protocols.
The primary and secondary outcomes differ according to each intervention domain and include neurological outcomes assessed using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), mortality, and predefined safety outcomes. Follow-up assessments are performed during hospitalization and at 30 and 90 days after hospital admission.
Because eligible patients are critically ill and frequently incapable of providing prospective informed consent at the time of enrollment, this study permits deferred consent procedures in accordance with Japanese ethical guidelines for emergency research. Consent from legally acceptable representatives or patients themselves is obtained as soon as feasible after hospital admission whenever possible.
The study also includes predefined interim analyses and centralized data management using REDCap-based electronic data capture systems. Statistical analyses are performed using intention-to-treat principles with methods appropriate for cluster-randomized crossover trial designs.
