Abstract
Background: C-reactive protein (CRP) has long been identified as a potential therapeutic target to improve outcomes in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Recently, CRP apheresis has shown promising results from first-in-human case reports, registries, and pilot trials in patients with COVID-19, acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, and non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes.
Methods and results: Herein we describe the perspective for a pivotal, international, randomized controlled trial investigating CRP apheresis in AMI. We herein propose the rationale, design, endpoints, and statistical methodology of this study.
Conclusion: The goal is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of CRP apheresis in AMI in reducing the combined primary clinical endpoint of cardiovascular mortality or rehospitalization for heart failure.
期刊介绍：
Coronary Artery Disease welcomes reports of original research with a clinical emphasis, including observational studies, clinical trials, translational research, novel imaging, pharmacology and interventional approaches as well as advances in laboratory research that contribute to the understanding of coronary artery disease. Each issue of Coronary Artery Disease is divided into four areas of focus: Original Research articles, Review in Depth articles by leading experts in the field, Editorials and Images in Coronary Artery Disease. The Editorials will comment on selected original research published in each issue of Coronary Artery Disease, as well as highlight controversies in coronary artery disease understanding and management.
Submitted artcles undergo a preliminary review by the editor. Some articles may be returned to authors without further consideration. Those being considered for publication will undergo further assessment and peer-review by the editors and those invited to do so from a reviewer pool.
