About this study

Official title: Simultaneous Acquisition of Intravascular Ultrasound and Near Infrared Spectroscopy Data in the Coronary Artery Study

This study is designed to evaluate the technical performance and clinical handling of a coronary catheter that includes two imaging techniques. The catheter being evaluated performs near infrared spectroscopy and ultrasound imaging of the coronary arteries. Near infrared spectroscopy is used to identify lipid or cholesterol deposits in the vessel wall and the ultrasound component provides structural information about the vessel. Combining multiple imaging techniques into a single catheter can reduce the total number of catheters required during treatment and the overall duration of cardiac catheterization. Both of these results may lead to safer procedures.

Being tested
Intravascular ultrasound and spectroscopy
Medical subject headings
Atherosclerosis, Coronary Artery Disease, Myocardial Ischemia, Myocardial Infarction

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Intravascular ultrasound and spectroscopyDevice

    Also called InfraReDx

    Intracoronary imaging with a catheter based ultrasound transducer and near infrared spectroscopy tip that is pulled back at an automated rate of 0.5 millimeters per second.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Obtain registered NIRS and IVUS data from a single catheter placement and single imaging run.

    Measured: day 0

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The imaging tip can be positioned in the mid segment of the target artery.

    Measured: day 0

  2. The lumen boundary of the target stenosis can be distinguished within the IVUS data set.

    Measured: day 0

  3. The external elastic membrane (EEM) of the target stenosis can be distinguished within the IVUS data set.

    Measured: day 0

  4. The lumen and EEM can be distinguished in the same cross section of the IVUS data set.

    Measured: day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atherosclerosis and Coronary Artery Disease, run by Infraredx at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 8 inclusion and 39 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 14 Sep 2010. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Obtain registered NIRS and IVUS data from a single catheter placement and single imaging run. (time frame: day 0). 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 14 Sep 2010.
