Trial summary

The objectives of this study are: 1. To show a reduction in the late thrombosis (LT) rate following percutaneous revascularization using current interventional techniques with new stent placement and intravascular radiation therapy (IRT) with a long-term antiplatelet regimen (12 months) compared to the stented… Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The patient has a restenosis of >60% (by subjective angiographic determination of the minimal luminal diameter compared to the distal reference diameter) within a native coronary artery which has previously undergone stent placement.
  • The patient has a history, signs of, or laboratory studies that suggest coronary ischemia attributable to the target stenosis.
  • The study target lesion must be located in a restenotic native coronary artery measuring >2.75 and <4.0 mm in diameter and 45 mm in length. The target lesion must have undergone coronary interventional treatment >4 weeks previously.
  • The vessel 1 cm distal to the target lesion is >2.5 mm in diameter.
  • 5 Patients age must be >18 years and <85 years.

Who cannot join

  • Attempts to treat lesions in other vessels during the procedure were unsuccessful.
  • The patient sustained a recent (<72 hours) myocardial infarction defined as a serum CK 2x the upper limit of normal and elevated MB.
  • Serum creatinine >2.0 mg/dl.
  • The left ventricular ejection fraction is <40%.

About this study

The objectives of this study are:

  1. To show a reduction in the late thrombosis (LT) rate following percutaneous revascularization using current interventional techniques with new stent placement and intravascular radiation therapy (IRT) with a long-term antiplatelet regimen (12 months) compared to the stented patients on short-term antiplatelet regimen (2 months) from the IRT arm of GAMMA I Trial.
  2. To show equivalence in the LT rate following percutaneous revascularization using current interventional techniques without new stent placement and IRT with a long-term antiplatelet regimen (6 months) compared to non-stented patients on short term antiplatelet therapy (2 months or less) from a pooling of the IRT arms of the GAMMA I, SCRIPPS, and WRIST Trials.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • GAMMA-Iridium-192 catheterDevice

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary effectiveness parameters will be late thrombosis of the target lesion at

  2. 9 months for non-stented patients and late thrombosis of the target lesion at

  3. 15 months for stented patients.

  4. The safety criteria will include post-procedure Q-wave myocardial infarction, non-Q-wave myocardial infarction, death, need for bypass surgery, need for emergency bypass surgery,or need for repeat coronary angioplasty.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing GAMMA-Iridium-192 catheter in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Cordis US Corp..

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Apr 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary effectiveness parameters will be late thrombosis of the target lesion at. The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Apr 2008.
