About this study

Official title: Palmaz Genesis Peripheral Stainless Steel Balloon Expandable Stent, Comparing a Sirolimus Coated Versus an Uncoated Stent in REnal Artery Treatment.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the safety and performance of the Palmaz Genesis™ balloon expandable stent, with or without sirolimus coating in the treatment of renal artery stenosis, measured at 6 months follow up via angiography.

Read the detailed description

Multi-center, prospective, controlled, non-randomized investigational feasibility study. One hundred (100) patients with de novo or restenotic renal artery lesions consisting of >= 50% stenosis and reference vessel of >= 4.0 to <= 8.0 mm in diameter will be sequentially included, 50 without sirolimus coating, followed by 50 with sirolimus coating Palmaz GenesisTM. Patients will be followed for 24 months post-procedure, with all patients having clinical assessments at discharge, 1,6, 12 and 24 months. This study will be conducted at twelve investigational sites.

It is anticipated that the total length of time required to complete the study will be 46 months.

  3. worsening renal function

    Measured: 30 days, 6 months, 12 months

  4. change in blood pressure measurement

    Measured: 30 days, 6 months, 12 months

  5. significant embolic events causing end-organ damage

    Measured: 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sirolimus-eluting Palmaz Genesis peripheral stent in people with Renal Artery Stenosis, run by Cordis US Corp. at 3 sites in 3 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 3 inclusion and 5 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 6 Aug 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France, Germany, Netherlands. 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 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?

assessment of the angiographical in-stent minimal lumen diameter (time frame: 6-months follow up). 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 NCT00235157, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Aug 2008.
