Different Anti-Spastic Therapy Strategies After CABG Using Radial Artery Grafts
Sponsor: Ruijin Hospital
Summary
The Pilot study will be a single-center, randomized, open-label, active-controlled trial. After CABG surgery using Radial Artery Grafts (RA-CABG) and signing the informed consent, all patients will be screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Estimated 150 patients will be enrolled and randomized by ratio 1:1:1 to receive either Nicorandil (5mg tid po) or Diltiazem (180mg qd po) or Isosorbide Mononitrate (50mg qd po). Follow-up visits will be conducted at Week 1, 4, 12, and 24 after surgery. The last evaluation of study endpoints and other adverse events will be at Week 24. The pilot study is designed to explore the angiography outcomes of grafts and cardiovascular outcomes of patients, as well as safety outcomes among different anti-spastic regimens after RA-CABG. The original study plan included a 24-week follow-up to evaluate the effects of different antispasmodic medications on radial artery grafts. The study protocol has been updated to include a centralized follow-up at a median of 5 years post-surgery. During this follow-up, patients' survival status, imaging results of graft vessels, and major cardiovascular events will be collected via outpatient visits or telephone interviews, with the aim of evaluating the impact of different antispasmodic strategies on long-term clinical outcomes and graft patency.
