Trial summary

Primary purpose :To early detect cardiac allograft vasculopathy and to identify patients with high risk of cardiac events, by coupling the analysis of the kinetics of the brain natriuretic peptide ( BNP) with that of the left ventricle (LV) during a dobutamine stress echocardiography.

About this study

Official title: Allograft Vasculopathy After Heart Transplantation : Diagnostic Interest of Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography and Brain Natriuretic Peptide Coupling

Primary purpose :To early detect cardiac allograft vasculopathy and to identify patients with high risk of cardiac events, by coupling the analysis of the kinetics of the brain natriuretic peptide ( BNP) with that of the left ventricle (LV) during a dobutamine stress echocardiography.

Hypothesis : Plasma BNP elevation and abnormalities of LV kinetic during the ESD, will be associated with the presence of allograft vasculopathy and the arisen of cardiovascular events.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Dobutamine stress echocardiography, coronarography, brachial arterial echographyProcedure or surgery

    DSE: cumulative doses of dobutamine (max = 40 µg/kg/min) and atropine (max = 1.5 mg), to reach a maximal heart rate under clinical, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic surveillancesCoronarography: invasive injection into coronary arteries of a radiological product showing a contrast visible on an x-ray. FMD: Flow-mediated dilatation of the brachial artery induced by 5-min forearm arterial occlusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dobutamine stress echocardiography, coronarography, brachial arterial echography in people with Vasculopathy and Allograft, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

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 1 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 10 Jul 2018. 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 France. 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.

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?

Cardiovascular events vs Dobutamine stress echocardiography each 2 years (time frame: 5 years). 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 10 Jul 2018.
