About this study

Official title: Magnetic Resonance Diabetic Cardiac Stress Imaging : MRDIABETICS

The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of cardiac MRI to detect coronary disease in diabetic patients. Cardiac MRI will be compared to myocardial scintigraphy with is the method being used in current practice. The investigators believe that cardiac MRI will be as efficient if not better that myocardial scintigraphy to detect tight coronary artery stenosis with the advantage of providing no radiation to the patient. Moreover, the investigators believe that cardiac MR will add additional information regarding possible undetected myocardial infarction.

Rationale:

The incidence of diabetes is rising constantly. According to the WHO projections, the population of diabetics will double by 2025. In France, the current population of diabetics is estimated at 2.5 millions persons. The cause of death in diabetics involves a cardiovascular condition in approximately 65-80% of the cases. The leading event is myocardial infarction. The prevalence of silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) in diabetics varies widely from 10 to 30%. The prognosis of SMI is closely dependent on the presence or not of angiographically significant coronary artery stenosis - CAS (patients with SMI and CAS>70% show 31% of major cardiac events at 41±24 months vs only 1.4% in patients with SMI and no CAS>70%). It seems therefore important to identify diabetic patients with SMI and CAS especially knowing that endovascular or surgical treatments are available and can potentially improve the prognosis of such patients.

Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy (MPS) is widely prescribed to detect coronary stenosis. It has a high sensitivity (90%) but an intermediate specificity (75%), providing a significant amount of false positive cases. Such false positive cases are usually followed with unnecessary coronary angiographies. Myocardial Perfusion Stress MRI (MRI) has been recently developed and shows promising preliminary results (equivalent sensitivity, higher specificity compared to MPS) for the identification of coronary artery stenosis. Few studies directly compare MRI and MPS in the general population, none in the diabetic population.

Principal objective: To evaluate and compare diagnostic performances of MRI and MPS for the diagnosis of coronary insufficiency in diabetic patients free of known coronary disease.

Secondary objective:

  • Cost efficacy analysis for the diagnosis of coronary insufficiency in diabetic patients free of known coronary disease.
  • Impact of clinical information on MRI and MPS diagnostic performances.

Design:. Prospective, monocentric study, where MRI and MPS will be assessed in a centralised manner by 2 independent blinded readers (2 readers for each technique) and compared to coronary angiography (Gold Standard, assessed by 2 independent blinded readers).

Patient selection: Patient with diabetes (type 1 or type 2), free of known coronary disease, addressed for MPS.

Inclusion period length: 24 months

Follow up period length: 2 days

Principal judgement criteria:

Coronary angiography: positive diagnosis of CAS if stenosis >50% on the left coronary artery (trunk) or stenosis >70% on the IVA (inter ventricular artery), LCx (circumflex artery) or RCA (right coronary artery) and branches.

MPS : positive diagnosis of CAS based on the following criteria : severity perfusion index, reversibility, contractility anomalies, signal attenuation due to patient morphology.

MRI : positive diagnosis of CAS based on an algorithm including the following criteria : first pass perfusion defect at stress, reversibility at rest, Myocardial Delayed Enhancement.

Number of necessary patients: 165

Expected results: An assessment of MRI performances compared to MPS for the diagnosis of coronary insufficiency in diabetic patients free of known coronary disease that will help improve diagnostic strategy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing MRI and MPS in people with Coronary Insufficiency, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 14 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jul 2012. 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 France. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: default of inclusion). 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?

positive diagnosis of coronary artery disease. (time frame: 2 days). 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 31 Jul 2012.
