Multiple Organ Failure
Conditions
Brief summary
Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) after surgical repaired for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) is a life-threatening condition. In this study, patients who undergoing surgical repaired of ATAAD immediately or presenting sever MODS after surgical repaired of acute type A aortic dissection will be treated with umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell.
Detailed description
Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) are common debilitating complications after surgical repaired for ATAAD. MODS is one of the chief causes of post-operative death for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients, and it was reported that MODS accounted for more than half of the death after surgery for ATAAD. Despite recent advance in surgical technique, mortality rate remains high in such critical care conditions. In animal models, studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of MSCs with respect to ischemia-reperfusion injury of heart, lungs, kidney, brains and livers. Several pilot studies have provided evidence that MSC may be effective in treating critically ill patients with traumatic brain injury, acute renal failure, or acute respiratory distress syndrome. There is increasing evidence that MSCs function in a paracrine manner. Exosomes have been reported to activate signaling pathways by binding to receptors. Compared with mesenchymal stem cells, exosomes are more stable and storable and no risk of aneuploidy. The possibility of immune rejection after allogeneic administration of exosomes is lower and can provide alternative treatment for a variety of diseases. The trial contains two parts: Part one (prevention scheme):to explore the safety and efficacy of exosome of MSC, the investigators will recruit patients who are diagnosed with ATAAD, and 15 participants will be administrated intravenously with exosome of MSC immediately after ascending aortic replacement combined with open placement of triple branched stent graft while other 15 not. Then the investigators will monitor participants' MODS related biochemical indexes, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores, comparing to those don't be treated with exosome of MSC. Phase two (treatment scheme): for patients presenting severe MODS (SOFA score≥10) after ascending aortic replacement combined with open placement of triple-branched stent graft, the investigators will randomly use exosome of MSC to 15 of participants while other 15 not. Then the investigators will monitor participants' MODS related biochemical indexes, SOFA scores, comparing to those don't be treated with MSC. The dosage of the exosome of MSC was determined on the basis of the previous clinical studies, which is 180mg once a time and administrated intravenously.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The number of people who get cancer | Up to 2 years | The number of people diagnosed with cancer after treatment |
| survival after intervention | Up to 6 month | comparing survival ratio in hospital(6 months post-intervention) between groups. |
| sequential organ failure assessment score | Up to 6 months | Compare the change of sequential organ failure assessment score between groups. Scores ranged from 0 to 24. The higher the score, the worse the prognosis. |
| interleukin-6 | Early 3 days | Compare the change of concentration of interleukin( IL)-6 between groups. |
| The number of allergic reactions | Up to 6 months | Allergic reactions are mostly manifested as skin flushing, rash and itching. Severe allergic reactions such as chills, high fever and anaphylactic shock are rare. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| the effects on kidney function | Up to 6 months | the therapeutic effects in the improvement of kidney function, as indicated by Scr level. |
| the effects on liver function | Up to 6 months | the therapeutic effects in the improvement of liver function, as indicated by bilirubin levels. |
| the effects on lung function | Up to 6 months | the therapeutic effects in the improvement of lung function, as indicated by oxygenation index. |
| the effects on coagulation function | Up to 6 months | the therapeutic effects in the improvement of coagulation function, as indicated by blood platelet count. |
| the effects on central nervous system | Up to 6 months | The Glasgow coma scale has a maximum score of 15 and a minimum score of 3, indicating consciousness. 12-14 was classified as mild consciousness disorder; 9-11 was classified as moderate disturbance of consciousness; A score below 8 is coma; The lower the score, the greater the disturbance of consciousness. |
