About this study

Official title: Observational Association Study of G Protein Polymorphisms With Cardiac Performance in Coronary Artery Disease Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

The purpose of this study is to determine whether polymorphisms in G protein subunits, namely Galphas and Galphaq, are associated with altered cardiac performance in heart failure patients.

Read the detailed description

G Protein pathways plays a pivotal role in mediating positive inotropy and cardiac hypertrophy by transducing signals of neurohormones in cardiomyocytes. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the G protein subunits Galphas and Galphaq have been shown to result in altered protein expression. We now want to examine whether G Protein polymorphisms alter NYHA functional class, and hemodynamic variables in patients with coronary artery disease scheduled for coronary artery bypass grafting .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Genetic Polymorphism and Coronary Artery Disease, run by University Hospital, Essen at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Aug 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 Germany. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ulrich H Frey, MD (+49201723 ext. 1401, ulrich.frey@uk-essen.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

genotype dependent change of hemodynamic variables (time frame: one day). 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 8 Aug 2008; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
