Trial summary

CT (computed tomography) angiography (CTA) is an examination similar to a CAT scan that uses x-rays and a contrast medium (also called dye) to visualize blood flow in arteries and veins throughout the body VISIPAQUE™ will be given through a vein in the arm before having the CTA scan of the heart arteries.

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

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is ≥18 years old.
  • Subject must have been referred for an elective coronary angiography for one of several specified conditions.

Who cannot join

  • The subject has impaired renal function with a serum creatinine level ≥1.7 mg/dL (150 μmol/L). If the institution's practising guideline(s) regarding the serum creatinine limits for receiving radiologic contrast medium are lower than 1.7 mg/dL (150 μmol/L), the investigator should follow the practising guideline(s) of their institution.
  • Subject has a known allergy to iodinated contrast agent
  • Subject has atrial fibrillation/flutter or any irregular heart rhythm considered to interfere with temporal acquisition of cardiac CT images.
  • The subject's resting heart rate is 66-100 bpm and β-blocker therapy is contraindicated.
  • Use of nitroglycerin is contraindicated.
  • Subject has had a prior CABG procedure.
  • Subject has a metal cardiac stent in place or artificial heart valve(s).
  • Subject has had a prior pacemaker or internal defibrillator lead implantation. Subject must agree to discontinue metformin day of and for 48 hours after the CTA procedure.

About this study

Official title: Phase 3, Open-label, Multicenter Studies to Determine Efficacy and Safety of VISIPAQUETM (Iodixanol) Injection for Use in Intravenous Contrast-Enhanced CT Angiography of Coronary Arteries

CT (computed tomography) angiography (CTA) is an examination similar to a CAT scan that uses x-rays and a contrast medium (also called dye) to visualize blood flow in arteries and veins throughout the body VISIPAQUE™ will be given through a vein in the arm before having the CTA scan of the heart arteries. The pictures it produces of the heart and its blood vessels will be reviewed and compared to those obtained during the catheter-based coronary angiography to see if the CTA shows the same blockages.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing iodixanol in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by GE Healthcare at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Apr 2019. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor decision (due to low subject recruitment)). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

To evaluate diagnostic performance and safety of Visipaque-enhanced CTA images for determination of presence or absence of coronary artery obstruction (time frame: 48 hours). 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 25 Apr 2019.
