About this study

Official title: Detection of Significant Coronary Artery Disease in Nephropathy Patients Utilizing Coronary CTA and Real Time Perfusion DSE: Comparison With Quantitative Coronary Angiography and Patient Outcome

This study investigates hypothesizes that the combination of dobutamine stress echocardiography with dobutamine stress echocardiography with real time perfusion myocardial contrast echocardiography and coronary computed tomography is a better modality for detecting coronary artery disease in end-stage renal disease patients than coronary angiography, and in predicting patient outcomes. Demonstrating this would lead to increased use of DSE with RTCE and coronary CT at kidney transplant centers throughout the nation, leading to improved anatomical and functional detection of CAD without the need for further invasive procedures.

Read the detailed description

Primary: To examine the ability of dobutamine stress dobutamine stress echocardiography with real time perfusion (DSE with RTCE) and coronary computed tomographic angiography (cCTA) to detect anatomically significant coronary artery disease (CAD) as defined by quantitative coronary angiography in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients Secondary: To identify which of these tests is most predictive of patient outcomes.

This will be a pilot study enrolling 75 participants. This is based off obtaining 80% power and a 90% rectangular confidence region for sensitivity and specificity using one-sided confidence limits, this corresponds to two 95% univariate confidence intervals (one for sensitivity and one for specificity). With 73 patients screened in total there will be 80% power to form a 90% rectangular confidence region around 90% sensitivity and 90% specificity, excluding sensitivities less than 69% and specificities less than 73%. We believe the sensitivities and specificities of both DSE with RTCE and cCTA will be within these confidence regions.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 15 Sep 2023. 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 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?

Detect coronary artery disease (CAD) by invasive angiography in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients (time frame: One year). 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 NCT00726921, which also lists 33 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 15 Sep 2023.
