Evaluation of the Efficacy of Early Implantation of a Percutaneous Left Ventricular Assist Devices in Acute Coronary Syndrome Complicated by Cardiogenic Shock Compared to Conventional Therapy: a Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled and Open-label Clinical Trial
Sponsor: Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille
Summary
The ULYSS study is a randomized, multicenter, interventional and prospective open-label clinical trial. It aims to evaluate the efficacy of the addition of an early IMPELLA CP support on top of optimal medical therapy and culprit lesion PCI compared to optimal medical care and culprit PCI in patients with an ACS complicated by a CS. A transthoracic echography is required to exclude some non-inclusion criteria as soon as possible and before randomization. Randomization will be performed after an informed consent is signed by the patient, a family member if he is unable to consent or thanks to the emergent consent procedure if all inclusion criteria are met and there are no non-inclusion criteria. A computer-generated randomization list will be drawn-up using a permuted block design (stratified on center). Each center will have a specific list. Randomization 1:1 to one of the 2 groups In all patients, emergent PCI of the culprit lesion will be performed. * Control group: patients will receive IV inotropes associated or not with vasopressors according to the attached protocol and based on the current guidelines (annex 1) (2, 4) in addition to emergent culprit lesion PCI * Experimental group: patients will receive IMPELLA CP before PCI on top of conventional therapy based on the same protocol as the control group and emergent culprit PCI

Interventions
IMPELLA CP
Implantation of the IMPELLA CP will be performed using the femoral route in most patients. Echo guided puncture to gain access for IMPELLA CP will be encouraged and a local angiography will be promoted to check the feasibility of device implantation. The implantation will follow gold standard after obtaining an ACT \>250 s. As soon as the device is in place it will be started.
Conventional therapy
The patients will receive up to date management according to the consensus of care regarding inotropes and vasopressors in CS (2,4). A dedicated protocol will ensure that management is similar between centers and in both groups. The shock team will be in charge of all therapeutic decisions.
