  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Have prolonged, continuous (lasting at least 20 minutes) chest pain despite administration of nitrates and onset within 12 hours of randomization, and one of the following:
  • ST segment elevation >=1mm in standard leads and >=2mm in 2 or more contiguous precordial leads with reciprocal ST depression

  • The culprit lesion must be identified on a de novo native coronary artery and an emergency angioplasty must be possible. The culprit site must be visualized before the stent implantation;

Who cannot join

  • Killip class > 2 upon arrival to the cath-lab;

About this study

Official title: Trial to Assess the Use of the Cypher TM Stent in Acute Myocardial Infarction Treated With Balloon Angioplasty

The main objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of the CYPHER™ (CYPHER SELECT™) (Sirolimus-eluting) stent in reducing the occurrence of a composite endpoint of target vessel failure (TVF) in subjects treated for acute myocardial infarction as compared to a bare metal stent.

Read the detailed description

This is an international, multicenter (up to 52 sites), randomized, single-blind study in patients with an acute myocardial infarction treated with the CYPHER™ (Sirolimus-eluting) stent as compared to the bare stents.

Patients with de novo native coronary artery lesions will be treated with the CYPHER™ (Sirolimus-eluting) stent or a bare stent. Subjects will be followed at 30 days, 6 months and at 1, 3, 4 and 5 years post-procedure. 200 subjects will have an angiographic follow-up at 8 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite of target vessel failure (TVF) defined as target vessel revascularization, recurrent myocardial infarction, or cardiac death that could not be clearly attributed to a vessel other than the target vesselpost-procedure.

    Measured: 1 and 6 months and at 1, 3, 4, and 5 years post-procedure.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. cardiac death

    Measured: 1, 3, 4 and 5 years post-procedure

  2. recurrence of myocardial infarction

    Measured: 1, 3, 4 and 5 years post-procedure

  3. revascularization of the target vessel (TVR)

    Measured: 1, 3, 4 and 5 years post-procedure

  4. recurrence of ischemia

    Measured: 1, 3, 4 and 5 years post-procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing drug-eluting stent and bare-metal stent in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Cordis US Corp. at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 16 Sep 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France, Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Composite of target vessel failure (TVF) defined as target vessel revascularization, recurrent myocardial infarction, or cardiac death that could not be clearly attributed to a vessel other than the target vesselpost-procedure. (time frame: 1 and 6 months and at 1, 3, 4, and 5 years post-procedure.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00232830, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 16 Sep 2009.
