Abstract
This multicenter randomized controlled trial evaluates the efficacy of thymosin alpha 1 (Tα1) supplementation in preventing organ dysfunction following acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) repair. Over 330 patients will be equally assigned to receive either Tα1 plus standard care or placebo with standard management. The primary endpoint involves calculating the difference in mean postoperative Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores between groups, measured daily from postoperative days 7. By targeting post-operative immune system imbalance, this study aims to establish a novel therapeutic approach for reducing systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS)-mediated organ injury and improving long-term outcomes in this high-risk population. Results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and international conferences.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Registry (NCT05339529).
期刊介绍:
Research advances have contributed to improved outcomes across all specialties, but the rate of advancement in cardiology has been exceptional. Concurrently, the population of patients with cardiac conditions continues to grow and greater public awareness has increased patients" expectations of new drugs and devices. Future Cardiology (ISSN 1479-6678) reflects this new era of cardiology and highlights the new molecular approach to advancing cardiovascular therapy. Coverage will also reflect the major technological advances in bioengineering in cardiology in terms of advanced and robust devices, miniaturization, imaging, system modeling and information management issues.
