About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial Investigating the Impact of Oral Sirolimus on Restenosis Prevention in Patients With In-Stent Restenosis.

Despite recent advances in interventional cardiology including the success of drug-eluting stents in de-novo coronary lesions, the treatment of in-stent restenosis remains a challenging clinical issue. Given the efficacy of the systemic sirolimus administration to prevent neointimal hyperplasia in animal models and to halt and even reverse the progression of allograft vasculopathy, the aim of the present double-blind, placebo-controlled study was to evaluate the efficacy of a 10-day oral sirolimus treatment with two different loading regimens for the prevention of recurrent restenosis in patients with in-stent restenosis.

Read the detailed description

Three-hundred symptomatic patients with in-stent restenotic lesions were randomly assigned to one of three treatment arms: placebo, usual dose or high dose sirolimus. Patients received a cumulative loading dose of 0, 8 or 24 mg of sirolimus two days prior to and the day of repeat intervention followed by maintenance therapy of 2 mg/day for 7 days. Angiographic restenosis at 6-months angiography was the primary end point of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Sirolimus in people with Coronary Restenosis, run by Deutsches Herzzentrum Muenchen at 3 sites 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 10 Mar 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 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?

Angiographic restenosis (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT00859183, which also lists 2 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 10 Mar 2009.
