Study acronym | Prevention-HARP |
Study objectives | Treatment with simvastatin can prevent lung injury in humans undergoing oesophagectomy as assessed by important surrogate clinical outcomes. |
Ethics approval(s) | Office for Research Ethics Committees Northern Ireland (ORECNI). Date of approval: 20/07/2007 (ref: 07/NIR02/83) |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Acute Lung Injury (ALI) |
Intervention | Patients will be randomised to simvastatin 80 mg or placebo enterally for 4 days prior to surgery and up to 7 days following surgery. |
Intervention type | Other |
Primary outcome measure | Efficacy of simvastatin to improve pulmonary deadspace at 6 hours following oesophagectomy or prior to extubation if earlier. |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. Oxygenation assessed by the PaO2: FiO2 ratio 6 hours following oesophagectomy 2. Respiratory system compliance (Crs) at 6 hours following oesophagectomy or prior to extubation if earlier 3. Occurrence of Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions (SUSARs) |
