Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A placebo-controlled, factorial trial to assess the impact of rosuvastatin and tranexamic acid (TXA) in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery who are at risk of a perioperative cardiovascular event.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Tranexamic Acid
  • Drug: Tranexamic Acid Placebo
  • Drug: Rosuvastatin or matching placebo
Phase 3

Detailed Description

The POISE-3 pilot is a randomized controlled trial of 100 patients with, or at risk of, atherosclerotic disease who are undergoing noncardiac surgery. Utilizing a partial factorial design, the POISE-3 pilot will determine the effect of rosuvastatin versus placebo and TXA versus placebo in the perioperative setting.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Tranexamic Acid vs. matching placebo

Tranexamic Acid 1g bolus with anesthesia induction followed by 1g bolus at the start of surgical closure.

Drug: Tranexamic Acid
Other Names:
  • Cyklokapron
  • Drug: Tranexamic Acid Placebo

    Experimental: Rosuvastatin vs. matching placebo

    Rosuvastatin 20 mg orally or matching placebo once per day until 30 days after surgery

    Drug: Rosuvastatin or matching placebo
    Subjects who are not on a statin will also be randomized to Rosuvastatin or Rosuvastatin placebo. 40mg preoperatively, followed by 20mg postoperatively (4-6 hours after surgical close) and 20mg/day for 30 days postoperatively.
    Other Names:
  • Crestor
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Postoperative intervention discontinuation [Postoperative day 1 to 30.]

      Interruption of the intervention longer than 24 hours within the first 10 days postoperatively, and longer than 48 hours from postoperative day 10 to 30.

    2. Change in hemoglobin [Postoperative day 1.]

      Change in preoperative hemoglobin to the morning hemoglobin recorded on day 1 after surgery.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. All-cause mortality [Postoperative day 30.]

    2. Non-fatal myocardial infarction [Postoperative day 30.]

    3. A composite of vascular mortality and non-fatal: myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiac arrest, pulmonary embolus, deep venous thrombosis, life threatening bleeding, major bleeding. [Postoperative day 30.]

      Event composite

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Safety Outcomes for Rosuvastatin assessed by Statin induced myopathy [Postoperative day 30.]

    2. Safety Outcomes for Tranexamic Acid assessed by Seizure, pulmonary emboli, deep venous thrombosis, vascular mortality [Postoperative day 30.]

      myocardial infarction, stroke, non-fatal cardiac arrest, and cardiac revascularization procedure.
