About this study

Official title: Clinical Significance of Collagen Metabolism Changes in Patients With Failing and Pressure Overloaded Left Cardiac Ventricle.

As there are no clinical data in cardiology about the relationship between metabolism collagen changes and their clinical significance, the investigators will check the hypothesis that collagen metabolism changes, detected by biochemical markers for collagen metabolism, could predict the left ventricle remodelling and prognosis in patient with clinically significant pressure overloaded left ventricle.

Read the detailed description

Clinical assessment and endpoints:

1ST day (the day of entering the hospital or the day of the first contact): Informed consent (see below), clinical examination, ECG, complete echocardiography evaluating the function of the left ventricle (EF) and the presence and the significance of valvular disease, basic laboratory tests incl. CKMB, troponin I, taking of blood samples (5 ml) for the detection of collagen metabolism markers serum level, X-ray of chest, 2nd-3rd day: clinical examination, ECG, basic laboratory tests incl.CKMB, troponin I (only group I) 4th day: clinical check up, ECG, echocardiography, taking of blood samples (5ml) for the detection of collagen metabolism markers serum level (only group I) 30th day: clinical examination l, ECG, echocardiography, taking of blood samples (5ml) for the detection of collagen metabolism markers serum level, 24 hrs ECG monitoring (holter) 6 months: clinical examination, ECG, echocardiography, taking of blood samples (5ml) for the detection of collagen metabolism markers serum level, holter monitoring

1 year: history, clinical examination

Primary endpoint: combined clinical endpoint: death/repeated hospitalisation due to heart failure/myocardial infarction within 30 days and during 1 year follow up.

Secondary endpoints: rehospitalisation for cardiovascular reason, clinically significant arrhythmias, correlations between left ventricle parameters evaluated by echocardiography and collagen metabolism changes evaluated by serum markers

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Stenosis, run by Charles University, Czech Republic at 1 site in Czechia.

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 3 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 28 Apr 2009. 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 Czechia. 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?

Primary outcome: combined clinical endpoint: death/repeated hospitalisation due to heart failure/myocardial infarction within 30 days and during 1 year follow up. (time frame: one year). 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 28 Apr 2009.
