Study Summary

This study will test the hypothesis that GSK1278863 will reduce neurologic, renal, and/or cardiac ischemia in patients undergoing elective descending thoracic aorta/thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (DTA/TAAA) repair, a population known to be at high risk for ischemic events from their underlying pathology and the surgical complexity required to address their disease. Approximately 160 subjects will be stratified according to intervention type (surgical or endovascular repair, with the latter limited to 50% of the total study population) and randomized in a 1:1 fashion to treatment with GSK1278863 (300 milligrams \[loading dose\] followed by 100 milligrams \[mg\]/day x 4 days) or placebo starting prior to planned repair, through postoperative day 3. The duration of participation in this study is expected to be approximately 4 to 8 weeks from screening to follow-up.

Primary Outcome

S100 beta is a CSF biomarker that rise significantly in participants with neurologic injury following DTA/TAAA surgery. CSF samples were collected at Baseline and within 48 hours following DTA/TAAA repair to assess peak change from Baseline in CSF S100 beta. Baseline was defined at Day 0. Change from Baseline was calculated as post-Baseline value minus Baseline value.
