Nitrite Infusion in High Risk Patients Undergoing Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Status Withdrawn

Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous sodium nitrite compared with placebo in reducing the occurrence of CSA-AK as diagnosed by KDIGO criteria during the first 72 hrs after cardiac surgery in high-risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Secondary objectives are to determine whether IV sodium nitrite achieves adequate pharmacokinetics (PK) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with the use of CPB.

Clinical Trial Description

Acute kidney injury is one of the most untoward consequences of cardiac-surgery with the use of CPB. As such it is associated with a high mortality and morbidity and health care expense. Unfortunately, currently, there is no effective preventive or treatment strategy for cardiac surgery-associated (CSA) AKI other than renal replacement therapy.

It is postulated that a major mechanism of CSA-AKI is created by the ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) resulting from aortic cross clamping and unclamping. This creates a cascade of events culminating in inflammation, microvascular dysfunction and tubular cell maladaptation and eventually renal tissue damage. Current treatment modalities that target the microcirculation such as blood pressure and cardiac output fails to prevent renal abnormalities and as such may be deleterious to the renal tissue microcirculation. The PI hypothesizes that a therapeutic strategy that limits IRI such as the administration of inhaled nitric oxide (NO) or sodium nitrite (NaNO2) would ameliorate CSA-AKI by limiting inflammatory injury to the kidney.

The anion nitrite (NO2-) releases NO in biological systems and has been demonstrated to inhibit IR injury in the heart, liver and kidneys created by various pathologic states1-3 and improve outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction, in patients with pulmonary hypertension and is the putative active mediator of protection in liver-transplantation patients receiving inhaled nitric oxide4.

The objective of this study is to determine whether the NO donor, nitrite will prevent I/R injury in patients at high risk of development of CSA-AKI undergoing open-heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
