Recruiting PHASE3 Inflammatory Response

New treatment option for Inflammatory Response

Official title Effect of Colchicine on Perioperative Anti-inflammatory Organ Injury in Cardiac Surgery

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06118034

What this study is testing

What is Colchicine 0.5 MG?

Colchicine 0.5 MG is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for inflammatory response.

Also referred to as Routine cardiovascular surgery and peri-operative management.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
All patients will be completed collection of demographic data, clinical data, and be observed for inflammatory organ damage, oxygenation index or SpO2/ FIO2, WBC, NEU, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, interleukin-8 (IL-1β/6/8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), myoglobin (Myo), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), neutrophil elastase (NE), myeloperoxidase (MPO), APACHE II score, alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), total bilirubin, Murray lung injury score, serum creatinine, eGFR, mechanical ventilation time, ICU length of stay, drug-related gastrointestinal reactions, and 30-day and 90-day all-cause mortality, among other indicators.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
