  • Ages 0 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Myocardial infarction of less than 12 hours duration with symptoms lasting at least 20 minutes.

About this study

Official title: Beneficial Effect of Intracoronary Adenosine on Microvascular and Myocardial Salvage in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction (SALVAGE)

Investigate the effect of selective intracoronary administration of adenosine on myocardial salvage and microvascular integrity in the setting of acute myocardial infarction.

Read the detailed description

Prospective, single center, randomized clinical study. Study design is random patient assignment to selective intracoronary administration of adenosine or control immediately before restoration of coronary artery patency in patients presenting with an acute ST segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Randomisation will be stratified for the duration of symptoms (< 4 hours vs > 4 hours).

Being tested
Adenosine

What is being measured

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

  1. Beneficial Effect of Intracoronary Adenosine on Microvascular and Myocardial Salvage in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction

  2. By means of:

  3. 1. MR imaging

  4. - at day 2-3: Rest perfusion, MVO, late enhancement and function

  5. - at 4 months: Rest perfusion, late enhancement and function

  6. 2. Tissue Doppler Imaging

  7. At 16-36 hours: Resolution of edema/wall thickness increase Function

  8. At 4 months

  9. 3 Quantitative Coronary Angiography

  10. TIMI flow grade, TIMI frame count on angiography of the IRA and myocardial blush grade before and at completion of the primary PCI procedure will be performed.

  11. 4 Electrocardiographic Analysis

  12. - ST segment resolution will be assessed from the 12-lead ECG on admission and the ECG on admission on C.C.U. after the PCI-procedure. This will be examined for summed ST deviation and for ST deviation in the single lead with maximal ST-deviation on

  13. Finally, the last ECG before hospital discharge and an ECG at 4 months will be studied for the evolution of Q-waves and T-waves.

  14. - 24 hour continuous ST-segment recording in the single lead with maximal ST-deviation on admission with calculation of the area under the curve.

  15. 5 Echocardiographic evaluation of left ventricular function

  16. At 16-36 hours

  17. After 4 months

  18. 6 Cardiac markers

  19. Blood samples for determination of the MB fraction of creatinekinase and of troponin I are to be taken:

  20. On admission

  21. Before and after PCI, through the sheath

  22. At 90 minutes after PCI

  23. At 8 hours after PCI

  24. At 16 hours after PCI

  25. At 24 hours after PCI

  26. 7 Clinical follow-up

  27. Occurrence of MACE (death, new Q-wave or non Q-wave MI or target vessel revascularisation) and the presence of clinical signs of heart failure will be recorded

  28. At hospital discharge

  29. At 30 days

  30. At 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Adenosine in people with Acute ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction, run by University Hospital, Gasthuisberg at 1 site in Belgium.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Walter JR Desmet, Ph.D. (+3216332211 ext. 43484, Walter.Desmet@uz.kuleuven.ac.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Beneficial Effect of Intracoronary Adenosine on Microvascular and Myocardial Salvage in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction. The study lists 30 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00284323, 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 31 Jan 2006; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
