BACKGROUND: A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study was performed to assess whether immunoprophylaxis with basiliximab (Simulect) could reduce the incidence of acute rejection in kidney transplant recipients treated with cyclosporine (Neoral), steroids, and azathioprine. METHODS: Three hundred forty patients received either placebo or basiliximab at a dose of 20 mg, given intravenously on days 0 and 4. All patients received cyclosporine, steroids, and azathioprine. The primary endpoint was the incidence of acute rejection at 6 months. Secondary endpoints included the safety and tolerability of basiliximab and placebo, 1-year patient and graft survival, and significant medical events up to 12 months. RESULTS: During the first 6 months posttransplantation, acute rejection occurred in 20.8% of patients given basiliximab versus 34.9% of patients administered placebo (P=0.005). Similarly, there was a reduction in biopsy-proven acute rejection at 6 months in the patients receiving basiliximab (P=0.023). One-year patient survival was 97.6% with basiliximab and 97.1% with placebo, graft survival was 91.5% versus 88.4%, respectively (NS). The adverse-events profile of patients treated with basiliximab was indistinguishable from that of patients treated with placebo. The number of patients with infections was similar (65.5% for basiliximab vs. 65.7% for placebo), including cytomegalovirus infections (17.3% vs. 14.5%, P=0.245). Nine neoplasms (three in the basiliximab group, six in the placebo arm) were recorded up to 1 year from transplantation. CONCLUSIONS: Basiliximab in combination with cyclosporine, steroids, and azathioprine triple therapy was highly effective in reducing the incidence of acute renal allograft rejection without increasing the incidence of infections and other side effects. 相似文献

Abstract There is evidence that calcium antagonists may have a beneficial effect on cyclosporineinduced nephropathy after transplantation. We treated 50 consecutive non-diabetic patients receiving their first cadaveric transplant with isradipine, a dihydropyridine calcium antagonist, or placebo in a double-blind, randomized, placebocontrolled trial. There were no significant differences between the two groups as regards age, weight, sex, HLA matching and ischaemic periods. To achieve optimal vasodilation, treatment was started intravenously 2 h before the transplantation procedure, and continued orally afterwards for 3 months. The immunosuppressive treatment included rabbit antithymocyte globulin on day 0, and oral cyclosporine from day 5. In both groups 7 patients had primary non-functioning grafts, but the incidence of never functioning kidneys due to vascular and thrombotic complications was significantly higher in the placebo group (0 vs 4 patients, P < 0.05). Hypertension was treated with oral labetolol in combination with guanfacine if necessary. In the placebo group antihypertensive medication had to be prescribed significantly more often (67% vs 33% of patients, P < 0.05), but resulted in similar blood pressure recordings in the two study groups. Cyclosporin A (CsA) plasma concentrations were also comparable but in the isradipine group a significantly higher dose of CsA was needed to achieve adequate levels (8.0 ± 0.5 vs 6.2 ± 0.5 mg/kg per day, P < 0.01). However, in the isradipine-treated patients creatinine clearance was significantly higher (66.1 ± 4.5 vs 55.6 ± 6.2 ml/min, P < 0.05) after 3 months. We conclude that isradipine is an effective antihypertensive agent after kidney transplantation. Isradipine ameliorates CsA-induced nephropathy and seems to protect against early postoperative vascular complications. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of preoperative dexamethasone on surgical outcome after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Pain and fatigue are dominating symptoms after LC and may prolong convalescence. METHODS: In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 88 patients were randomized to intravenous dexamethasone (8 mg) or placebo 90 minutes before LC. Patients received a similar standardized anesthetic, surgical, and multimodal analgesic treatment. All patients were recommended 2 days postoperative duration of convalescence. The primary endpoints were fatigue and pain. Preoperatively and at several times during the first 24 postoperative hours, we measured C-reactive protein (CRP) and pulmonary function, pain scores, nausea, and number of vomiting episodes were registered. Analgesic and antiemetic requirements were recorded. Also, on a daily basis, patients reported scores of fatigue and pain before and during the first postoperative week and the dates for resumption of work and recreational activities. RESULTS: Eight patients were excluded from the study, leaving 40 patients in each study group for analysis. There were no apparent side effects of the study drug. Dexamethasone significantly reduced postoperative levels of CRP (P = 0.01), fatigue (P = 0.01), overall pain, and incisional pain during the first 24 postoperative hours (P < 0.05) and total requirements of opioids (P < 0.05). In addition, cumulated overall and visceral pain scores during the first postoperative week were significantly reduced (P < 0.05). Dexamethasone also reduced nausea and vomiting on the day of operation (P < 0.05). Resumption of recreational activities was significantly faster in the dexamethasone group versus placebo group (median 1 day versus 2 days) (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Preoperative dexamethasone (8 mg) reduced pain, fatigue, nausea and vomiting, and duration of convalescence in patients undergoing noncomplicated LC, when compared with placebo, and is recommended for routine use. 相似文献

Intravenous zoledronate 5 mg, administered annually, prevents fractures in people with osteoporosis, but the optimal dosing schedule is not known. Previously, we reported that a single dose of 5 mg zoledronate stably decreased bone turnover and increased bone mineral density (BMD) for 3 years in a randomized controlled trial in 50 postmenopausal women with osteopenia. We have now completed a 2-year double-blind extension of this trial, during which no additional treatment was administered. The primary endpoint was change in the bone turnover markers procollagen type-I N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) and β-C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (β-CTX); the secondary endpoint was change in BMD at lumbar spine, total hip and total body. Mean levels of the each of the bone turnover markers were lower in the zoledronate group throughout the study (P<0.0001 for each marker). After 5 years, mean (95% CI) levels of β-CTX and P1NP were 277 ng/L (150, 404) and 28 μg/L (16, 40) lower in the zoledronate group, corresponding to reductions of 48% and 45%, respectively. BMD was higher in the zoledronate group during the study (P<0.0001 for each site). After 5 years, BMD in the zoledronate group was higher by 4.2% (1.1, 7.2) at the lumbar spine, by 5.3% (2.7, 7.9) at the total hip, and by 2.7% (1.1, 4.2) at the total body. These findings suggest that the anti-resorptive effects of a single 5 mg dose of zoledronate persist for at least 5 years in postmenopausal women. Trials assessing the anti-fracture efficacy of dosing intervals of zoledronate of up to 5 years are justified. 相似文献

Background:Among persons who receive solid organ 0842 transplants, liver transplant recipients have the highest incidence of invasive fungal infection; however, no antifungal prophylaxis has been proven to be effective.Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of prophylactic0842 fluconazole in liver transplant recipients.Design:Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. 0842Setting:University-affiliated transplantation center.0842Patients:212 liver transplant recipients who received fluconazole0842 (400 mg/d) or placebo until 10 weeks after transplantation.Measurements:Fungal colonization, proven superficial 0842 or invasive fungal infection, drug-related side effects, and death.Results:Fungal colonization increased in 0842 patients who received placebo (from 60% to 90%) but decreased in patients who received fluconazole (from 70% to 28%). Proven fungal infection occurred in 45 of 104 placebo recipients (43%) but in only 10 of 108 fluconazole recipients (9%) (P < 0.001). Fluconazole prevented both superficial infection (29 of 104 placebo recipients became infected [28%] compared with 4 of 108 fluconazole recipients [4%]; P < 0.001) and invasive infection (24 of 104 placebo recipients became infected [23%] compared with 6 of 108 fluconazole recipients [6%]; P < 0.001). Fluconazole prevented infection by most Candida species, except C. glabrata. However, infection and colonization by organisms intrinsically resistant to fluconazole did not seem to increase. Fluconazole was not associated with any hepatotoxicity. Patients receiving fluconazole had higher serum cyclosporine levels and more adverse neurologic events (headaches, tremors, or seizures in 13 fluconazole recipients compared with 3 placebo recipients; P = 0.01). Although the overall mortality rate was similar in both groups (12 of 108 [11%] in the fluconazole group compared with 15 of 104 [14%] in the placebo group; P > 0.2), fewer deaths related to invasive fungal infection were seen in the fluconazole group (2 of 108 patients [2%]) than in the placebo group (13 of 104 patients [13%]) (P = 0.003).Conclusions:Prophylactic 0842 fluconazole after liver transplantation decreases fungal colonization, prevents superficial and invasive fungal infections, and has no appreciable hepatotoxicity. Although fluconazole prophylaxis is associated with fewer deaths from fungal infection, it does not improve overall survival. Patients receiving prophylactic fluconazole require close monitoring of serum cyclosporine levels to avoid neurologic toxicity. 相似文献

Background
Acute kidney injury (AKI) and renal dysfunction after heart transplantation are common and serious complications. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) has been shown to increase glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and exert renoprotective effects when used for the prevention/treatment of AKI in cardiac surgery. We tested the hypothesis that intraoperative and postoperative administration of ANP could prevent a postoperative decrease in renal function early after heart transplantation.Methods
Seventy patients were randomized to receive either ANP (50 ng/kg/min) (n = 33) or placebo (n = 37) starting after induction of anesthesia and continued for 4 days after heart transplantation or until treatment with dialysis was started. The primary end-point of the present study was measured GFR (mGFR) at day 4, assessed by plasma clearance of a renal filtration marker. Also, the incidence of postoperative AKI and dialysis were assessed.Results
Median (IQR) mGFR at day 4 postoperatively was 60.0 (57.0) and 50.1 (36.3) ml/min/1.72 m2 for the placebo and ANP groups, respectively (p = .705). During ongoing ANP infusion, the need for dialysis was 21.6% and 9.1% for the placebo and ANP groups, respectively (p = .197). The incidences of AKI for the placebo and the ANP groups were 76.5% and 63.6%, respectively (p = .616). The incidences of AKI stage 1 were 32.4% and 21.2% for the placebo and ANP groups, respectively (p = .420) and for AKI stage 2 or 3, 37.8% and 42.4%, respectively (p = .808).Conclusion
The study failed to detect that ANP infusion attenuates renal dysfunction or decreases the incidence of AKI after heart transplantation. 相似文献9.
Abstract Background and Purpose: Ureteral stents are indispensable tools in endourology, although they often are associated with bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of alfuzosin on urinary symptoms, quality of life, and pain in patients after Double-J ureteral stent placement in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Patients and Methods: This study was conducted from July 2008 to May 2009. A total of 130 patients underwent placement of a Double-J stent after retrograde semirigid ureteroscopy for ureteral stones. They were randomized in two groups. Group 1 (n=65) received alfuzosin 10?mg once daily and group 2 (n=65) received placebo for 1 week. Both groups also received standardized analgesia. The stent symptoms were measured and recorded 1 week after the procedure. Statistical analyses were performed using the chi-square test and Student t test with P<0.05 considered significant. Results: The demographic profile including patient and stone-related parameters were comparable. Group 1 had significantly less urinary symptoms (P<0.05). The quality-of-life assessment was better in the alfuzosin arm than in the placebo arm (P<0.001). The mean pain score was 1.15 in group 1 and 3.89 in the placebo group (P<0.001). None of the patients in either of the arms withdrew from treatment; there were minimal adverse effects in the treatment arm. The limitation of the current work includes relatively smaller sample size and use of single type of stent. Conclusions: Alfuzosin 10?mg once daily in patients with a Double-J stent significantly decreases the bothersome urinary symptoms, besides decreasing significantly the pain associated with the stent. 相似文献

Nimodipine treatment in poor-grade aneurysm patients. Results of a multicenter double-blind placebo-controlled trial 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

A multicenter, randomized placebo-controlled double-blind trial of nimodipine in poor-grade aneurysm patients was carried out in 17 Canadian hospitals. Of 188 patients enrolled in the trial, 32 were excluded for protocol violations and two were excluded due to statistical considerations, leaving 154 patients for valid outcome analysis. Nimodipine treatment was associated with a significantly better outcome (p less than 0.001): 21 (29.2%) of 72 nimodipine-treated patients had a good outcome at 3 months after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) compared to eight (9.8%) of 82 placebo-treated patients. Delayed ischemic deficits from vasospasm alone were significantly less frequent in the nimodipine group (p less than 0.05) with permanent deficits occurring in five nimodipine-treated patients (6.9%) and in 22 placebo-treated patients (26.8%). Improvement in the good outcome rate and reduction in delayed ischemic deficits from vasospasm alone occurred in both Grade 3 and 4 patients, with no difference between nimodipine- and placebo-treated patients being found in Grade 5 patients. Repeat angiography after Day 4 was carried out in 124 patients. There was no significant difference in the incidence of moderate or severe diffuse spasm, which was seen in 64.3% of nimodipine-treated patients and 66.2% of placebo-treated patients. The authors conclude that nimodipine treatment in poor-grade patients with SAH results in an increase in the number of good outcomes and a reduction in the incidence of delayed neurological deterioration due to vasospasm. This effect occurs by a mechanism other than prevention of large-vessel spasm as visualized on angiography. 相似文献

OBJECT: To determine if a 6-month regimen of prophylactic ursodeoxycholic acid is effective in the prevention of gallstones. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Rapid weight loss after surgery for the treatment of morbid obesity is associated with a high incidence of gallstone formation. METHODS: Patients with vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) and adjustable gastric banding (AGB) were enrolled in this study. A single-center, randomized, double-blind, prospective trial evaluated 500 mg of ursodeoxycholic acid versus placebo, beginning within 3 days after surgery and continuing for 6 months or until gallstone development, for patients with morbid obesity. Transabdominal sonography or abdominal CT scan was obtained preoperatively at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery or until gallstone formation. RESULTS: From March 1997 to April 2000, 262 patients were submitted to surgery. Seventy-seven patients refused to participate in the study; 43 patients with previous gallstone operation or verified gallstones preoperatively were excluded. Of 152 patients, 76 were randomized to placebo and 76 to 500 mg of ursodeoxycholic acid daily. Preoperative age, sex, weight, BMI, and postoperative weight loss were not significantly different between groups. Gallstone formation was significantly less (P = 0.0018, Fisher exact test) frequent with ursodeoxycholic acid than with placebo at 12 months, 3% versus 22%, and 8% versus 30% (P = 0.0022) at 24 months, cholecystectomy in 4.7% versus 12%, respectively (P < 0,02, Fisher exact test). CONCLUSION: A daily dose of 500 mg of ursodeoxycholic acid for 6 months is effective prophylaxis for gallstone formation following gastric restrictive procedures. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Prevention of bleeding episodes in noncirrhotic patients undergoing partial hepatectomy remains unsatisfactory in spite of improved surgical techniques. The authors conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial to evaluate the hemostatic effect and safety of recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) in major partial hepatectomy. METHODS: Two hundred four noncirrhotic patients were equally randomized to receive either 20 or 80 microg/kg rFVIIa or placebo. Partial hepatectomy was performed according to local practice at the participating centers. Patients were monitored for 7 days after surgery. Key efficacy parameters were perioperative erythrocyte requirements (using hematocrit as the transfusion trigger) and blood loss. Safety assessments included monitoring of coagulation-related parameters and Doppler examination of hepatic vessels and lower extremities. RESULTS: The proportion of patients who required perioperative red blood cell transfusion (the primary endpoint) was 37% (23 of 63) in the placebo group, 41% (26 of 63) in the 20-microg/kg group, and 25% (15 of 59) in the 80-microg/kg dose group (logistic regression model; P = 0.09). Mean erythrocyte requirements for patients receiving erythrocytes were 1,024 ml with placebo, 1,354 ml with 20 microg/kg rFVIIa, and 1,036 ml with 80 microg/kg rFVIIa (P = 0.78). Mean intraoperative blood loss was 1,422 ml with placebo, 1,372 ml with 20 microg/kg rFVIIa, and 1,073 ml with 80 microg/kg rFVIIa (P = 0.07). The reduction in hematocrit during surgery was smallest in the 80-microg/kg group, with a significant overall effect of treatment (P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS: Recombinant factor VIIa dosing did not result in a statistically significant reduction in either the number of patients transfused or the volume of blood products administered. No safety issues were identified. 相似文献

Some clinical studies in liver transplantation have recently reported safety advantages and similar acute rejection rates with early steroid withdrawal. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an immunosuppressive regimen with steroid withdrawal at day 14. A multicenter, 1-year, comparative, double blind, placebo-controlled study was performed. Patients undergoing a first cadaveric liver transplantation were recruited and all received basiliximab + cyclosporine + intravenous methylprednisolone. Patients without severe postoperative complications were randomized at day 7 to receive a maintenance regimen with Neoral (cyclosporine) + prednisolone (group 1) or without steroids (Neoral + placebo; group 2), after a 7-day blinded oral steroid tapering period. A total of 174 patients were randomized at day 7 (group 1: n = 90; group 2: n = 84). The incidence of biopsy-confirmed and treated acute rejection at 6 months was 38.1% in group 2 vs. 24.4% in group 1 (P = .03) with a trend for a higher incidence of Grade II / III acute rejection (28.6% vs. 18.9%; P = .12). Changes from baseline were similar with regard to metabolic parameters (glycemia, total cholesterol, and triglycerides). A trend toward a better glucose tolerance was observed, as fewer patients received an antidiabetic treatment in the placebo group (2 vs. 10). In conclusion, this first double-blind, placebo-controlled study of steroid withdrawal at day 14 showed a higher incidence of acute rejection, only balanced by a trend of a lower need of antidiabetic treatment. 相似文献

Antihypertensive medications are used extensively in children despite a paucity of randomized, placebo-controlled trials.
This study was among the first randomized, controlled pediatric antihypertensive medication trials, in which the combination
drug bisoprolol fumarate/hydrochlorothiazide (B/HT) was compared with placebo. The study comprised a 2-week single-blind placebo
screening period, a 6-week double-blind dose titration period, a 4-week double-blind dose maintenance period, and a 2-week
double-blind dose-tapering period. One hundred and forty subjects were enrolled to achieve 94 randomized subjects treated
either with B/HT (n=62) or placebo (n=32). B/HT induced significant reductions compared with placebo for average sitting systolic blood pressure (SiSBP) (9.3 vs.
4.9 mmHg, P<0.05) and sitting diastolic blood pressure (SiDBP) (7.2 vs. 2.7 mmHg, P<0.05). The placebo-subtracted BP reductions were greater in younger children and those with more-severe baseline hypertension.
The percentage of subjects with BP less than the 90th percentile at study completion was 45% for B/HT and 34% for placebo
(P=NS). Although the study demonstrated that B/HT reduced BP safely compared with placebo, the large placebo effect and failure
of most subjects to achieve target BP control make it uncertain whether B/HT is appropriate first-line therapy for pediatric
hypertension, particularly in adolescents with mild-to-moderate BP elevation.

The shortage of suitable organs for liver grafts is responsible for the use of marginal donors for liver transplantation (OLT). If these liver grafts function poorly initially after OLT, a supportive therapy is necessary. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of prostacyclin (PGI2) on postoperative liver graft function after OLT. A total of 30 adult recipients of primary OLT were randomized to either receive PGI2 (4 ng/kg per min body weight, n = 15) or a placebo for 6 d. To evaluate regional splanchnic oxygenation a fiberoptic pulmonary-artery catheter was inserted into a hepatic vein and the difference between mixed venous oxygen content and hepatic venous oxygen content was determined (deltaO2). Measurements were performed directly after transplantation and at 6, 12, 24 and 48 h postoperatively. A significant correlation between deltaO2 and the level of transaminases (ALT/AST) was observed 24 and 48 h after transplantation (p < 0.05). PGI2 treatment induced a significant decrease in deltaO2 after 24 and 48 h after reperfusion (p < 0.05). Peak AST levels tended to be lower in the PGI2 treatment group (418 +/- 99 vs. 638 +/- 156 U/L, p < 0.1). These results suggest that administration of PGI2 after OLT improves hepatic-splanchnic oxygenation and may thereby reduce reperfusion injury after OLT. 相似文献

Addition of inhaled corticosteroids to systemic immunosuppression after lung transplantation: a double-blind,placebo-controlled trial 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

BACKGROUND: It is postulated that bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is preceded by airway inflammation that has been described even in stable lung transplant recipients. Airway inflammation is known to be suppressed by inhaled steroids in other chronic inflammatory lung diseases, e.g., asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. BOS is the major cause of morbidity and mortality after lung transplantation. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of inhaled corticosteroids on the development of BOS in lung transplant recipients. METHODS: Thirty patients were recruited and randomized in a double-blind fashion to receive either 750 microg of fluticasone propionate (FP) or an identical-appearing placebo twice daily for 3 months; 20 of this group continued until 2 years posttransplantation. Detailed spirometry was performed regularly throughout the study. RESULTS: In the short-term study no differences were found in any examined parameters. In the long-term component of the study no differences were found in the development of neither BOS nor survival. There were minor differences in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) lymphocyte percentages. CONCLUSIONS: FP is ineffective for the prevention of BOS after lung transplantation despite the airway inflammation that characterizes this condition. Inadequate local delivery, timing of the therapy relative to transplantation and inherent steroid resistance of this condition may explain the negative finding of this study. 相似文献

Effective immunoprophylaxis with basiliximab plus triple therapy in renal transplantation: five-year single-center experience 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Kandus A Grego K Arnol M Kovac D Lindic J Buturović J Ponikvar R Bren AF 《Transplantation proceedings》2006,38(9):2853-2855
We studied prospectively the efficacy and safety of basiliximab combined with triple immunosuppression in adult recipients of > or = 1 HLA-mismatched deceased donor renal grafts. All studied patients received equal immunosuppressive drugs: 20 mg infusion of basiliximab on day 0 and on day 4, cyclosporine microemulsion (Neoral), mycophenolate mofetil, and methylprednisolone. An analysis of 1-year data assessed the incidence of acute rejection episodes, safety of this therapy, renal graft function, and patient and graft survivals. One hundred seventy-two patients were studied. The HLA-antigen mismatches were 2.9 +/- 0.9 (mean +/- SD), and the cold ischemia time was 22.0 +/- 7.5 hours. Fifty-three (31.5%) patients experienced delayed graft function. At 12 months, 5 (3.0%) patients experienced acute rejection. Six renal grafts were lost, but not from rejection. Two patients died. Sixty-six infections required treatment in the hospital. One carcinoma of cervix (in situ) and two basal cell carcinomas of skin were detected. Hypersensitivity reactions and cytokine-release syndrome were not observed. At 12 months, serum creatinine was significantly higher (119 +/- 46 micromol/L; P < .001) in patients with delayed graft function than in patients with immediate graft function (99 +/- 26 micromol/L). Patient and graft survivals were 98.8% and 97.1%, respectively. Basiliximab combined with this triple therapy was an efficient and safe immunosuppression strategy, demonstrated with very low incidence of acute rejections, an acceptable adverse event profile, excellent graft function, and high short-term survival rates in adult recipients of deceased donor renal transplant. 相似文献
