Effect of Trimetazidine on Radiotherapy-induced Heart Damage.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a randomized controlled trial. 80 patients with thoracic radiotherapy will be included. Participants will be randomly divided into experimental group or control group. Before radiotherapy, echocardiography, 2D STE, CK, CK-MB, cTnT, NT-proBNP, electrocardiogram (ECG), and hs-CRP will be detected. During subsequent follow-up, echocardiography, 2D STE, CK, CK-MB, cTnT, NT-proBNP, ECG, and hs-CRP will be collected at every follow-up time.

Detailed Description
This is a randomized controlled trial. 80 patients with thoracic radiotherapy will be included in Peking University Third Hospital from May 15, 2021 to August 31, 2022. Participants will be randomly divided into experimental group or control group. Before radiotherapy, echocardiography, 2D STE, CK, CK-MB, cTnT, NT-proBNP, electrocardiogram (ECG), and hs-CRP will be detected. All participants will be followed up after completion of RT, 3 months after RT, 6 months after RT, and 12 months after RT. During subsequent follow-up, echocardiography, 2D STE, CK, CK-MB, cTnT, NT-proBNP, ECG, and hs-CRP will be collected at every follow-up time.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: experimental group Trimetazidine was given 2 weeks before radiotherapy, 20 mg each time, three times a day for 3 months. |
Drug: Trimetazidine
The experimental group will be treated with trimetazidine, and the control group will not be intervened
|
No Intervention: control group No intervention |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- global longitudinal strain-A parameter of two dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography [pre-radiotherapy, 12 months after radiotherapy]
The primary outcome of the trial was a decrease in global longitudinal strain ≥10%.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Rate of major adverse cardiovascular events [pre-radiotherapy, after completion of radiotherapy, 3 months after radiotherapy, 6 months after radiotherapy, and 12 months after radiotherapy]
Proportion of patients with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in total participants. MACE was defined as unstable angina, new arrhythmia, acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, valvular heart disease, acute pericarditis, and cardiac death in this study.
