About this study

Official title: Identification of Gene Expression Patterns in Circulating Cells That Predict the Presence of Coronary Artery Disease

The PREDICT study is to develop and validate a diagnostic blood ASGES (age, sex, gene expression score) or Corus CAD for atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD). The Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) will use quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR) to quantify the expression of multiple genes from circulating peripheral blood cells to assess the presence of clinically significant CAD in a patient.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the PREDICT study is to develop and validate a diagnostic blood ASGES (age, sex, gene expression score) or Corus CAD for atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD). The Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) will use quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR) to quantify the expression of multiple genes from circulating peripheral blood cells to assess the presence of clinically significant CAD in a patient.

This is a prospective, multi-center, observational study. Participation in the study does not alter clinical care. The only procedure required by the protocol is collection of a research blood sample. All other data collected will be in accordance with each participating institution's standard patient care.

The study is divided into four sequential segments with unique subjects and goals: ASGES (Corus CAD) discovery (segment 1), ASGES (Corus CAD) development (segment 2), ASGES (Corus CAD) validation (segment 3), and additional ASGES (Corus CAD) testing (segment 4). The primary analysis will be performed during the third segment of the study using a subset of the enrolled subjects ("primary subjects"). Primary subjects will be defined by additional eligibility criteria beyond the general eligibility criteria required for enrollment in the overall study. The additional, post-enrollment eligibility criteria will be based on clinical and demographic factors that are found during the course of the study to affect the expression of genes used in the ASGES (Corus CAD). Such factors will be identified during gene discovery and algorithm development. The post-enrollment eligibility criteria will be defined prior to the beginning of the ASGES (Corus CAD) validation segment of the study.

In addition, three substudies are planned and will enroll up to 1500 subjects.

  • The first substudy will include subjects undergoing cardiac CT angiography (CTA) and aims to determine how gene expression correlates with total coronary atheroma burden, as measured by CTA.
  • The second substudy examines sample handling and shipping conditions and does not affect the treatment of the subjects.
  • The third substudy will focus on additional algorithm development and validation in a non-diabetic female patient population.

What is being measured

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

  1. Algorithm AUC >0.50

    The primary analysis will be performed during the third segment of the study using a subset of the enrolled subjects ("primary subjects"). The primary endpoint for the PREDICT study is a validated algorithm that can accurately classify subjects with and without any coronary artery lesion with a ≥50% diameter stenosis, as measured by Core Laboratory blinded quantitative coronary angiography. In evaluating this endpoint, subjects will be classified as either cases or controls. The endpoint will be assessed by calculating the area under the curve (AUC) for the algorithm score, and testing against an AUC = 0.50 to determine clinical utility, using an alpha level of 0.05 (two-sided).

    Measured: 30days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Angina Pectoris, run by CardioDx at 10 sites 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 5 inclusion and 12 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 31 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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.

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?

Algorithm AUC >0.50 (time frame: 30days). 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 NCT00500617, which also lists 7 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 31 Jan 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
