Trial summary

This study will demonstrate whether patients with prognostically-significant myocardial abnormalities detected with AI-700 contrast ECHO have a rate of cardiac death or MI that is higher than that of patients with normal AI-700 contrast ECHO. Read more about this study

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 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: This observational study will enroll up to 773 patients who participated in either AI-700-32 or AI-700-33 and who were evaluated with AI-700 contrast ECHO at rest and at pharmacologic-induced stress. Approximately 28 international study centers will participate. At the time of AI-700 contrast ECHO (defined as the index date), the patients were to have had a recent history of chest pain and were to meet all eligibility criteria. Chest pain (angina) was defined as either: * typical chest pain: 1) substernal chest discomfort with a characteristic quality and duration that is 2) provoked by exertion or emotional stress and 3) relieved by rest or nitroglycerin, or * atypical chest pain (angina) that meets 2 of the 3 typical chest pain characteristics.

Eligible patients were enrolled in either AI-700-32 or AI-700-33.

About this study

Official title: Prognostic Assessment of Contrast Echocardiography (PACE Study): An Observational Follow-up Study of Patients With Chest Pain Evaluated With AI-700 Contrast Echocardiography

This study will demonstrate whether patients with prognostically-significant myocardial abnormalities detected with AI-700 contrast ECHO have a rate of cardiac death or MI that is higher than that of patients with normal AI-700 contrast ECHO.

Read the detailed description

This observational study will investigate the ability of AI-700 contrast ECHO to predict risk of future cardiovascular events occurring in patients who had a recent history of chest pain at the time of ECHO evaluation. Eligible patients were enrolled in either AI-700-32 or AI-700-33, which are completed Phase 3 international, multicenter, open-label, dual-injection studies of the myocardial imaging capabilities and safety of AI-700 administered intravenously in patients with chest pain. In the course of these Phase 3 studies, patients were evaluated with AI-700 contrast ECHO. In addition, eligible patients were to have had an evaluable pharmacologic stress-induced AI-700 ECHO assessment as part of AI-700-32 or AI-700-33.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary outcome variable is the time to first occurrence of the composite outcome (death or confirmed non fatal MI).

    Measured: The time between AI 700 ECHO and outcomes data collection will be ≥12 months with an expected average follow-up period of 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Certain secondary analyses will include revascularizations and CHF.

    Measured: The time between AI 700 ECHO and outcomes data collection will be ≥12 months with an expected average follow-up period of 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Acusphere 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?

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 1 May 2008. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. 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?

The primary outcome variable is the time to first occurrence of the composite outcome (death or confirmed non fatal MI). (time frame: The time between AI 700 ECHO and outcomes data collection will be ≥12 months with an expected average follow-up period of 24 months). 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 1 May 2008.
