The Effect of Ischaemic-Reperfusion and Remote Ischaemic Preconditioning in Man - A Bradykinin Dependent Pathway
A study testing Forearm vascular study and bradykinin receptor antagonist (HOE-140) in people with Ischaemic Heart Diseases, run by University of Edinburgh at 1 site in United Kingdom.
Trial summary
Heart attacks are usually caused by a blood clot blocking an artery supplying blood to the heart. Current treatments are designed at relieving this blockage as quickly as possible to minimize damage to the heart muscle. Read more about this study

About this study
Heart attacks are usually caused by a blood clot blocking an artery supplying blood to the heart. Current treatments are designed at relieving this blockage as quickly as possible to minimize damage to the heart muscle. However in restoring the supply of blood local damage known as "ischaemia-reperfusion injury" may occur. The aim of this study is to assess how clot forming and clot dissolving pathways are affected during this process, and examine the role of a natural inflammatory hormone, bradykinin. This will help the investigators to understand the mechanism by which ischaemia-reperfusion injury may occur and to devise new treatments for heart attacks.

What participants receive

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Placebo comparator | Prior to 20 mins of ischaemia induced by a blood pressure cuff inflated to 200 mmHg around the upper non-dominant arm, remote ischaemic preconditioning will be induced by inflating a cuff around the dominant arm to 200 mmHg for 5 mins followed by 5 mins of reperfusion. This cycle will be repeated 3 times. Systemic infusion of placebo (saline). Receives: Procedure: Forearm vascular study; Drug: Placebo |
| 2 | Active comparator | Prior to 20 mins of ischaemia induced by a blood pressure cuff inflated to 200 mmHg around the upper non-dominant arm, remote ischaemic preconditioning will be induced by inflating a cuff around the dominant arm to 200 mmHg for 5 mins followed by 5 mins of reperfusion. This cycle will be repeated 3 times. Systemic infusion of bradykinin receptor antagonist (HOE-140). Receives: Procedure: Forearm vascular study; Drug: bradykinin receptor antagonist (HOE-140) |

Current treatments are designed at relieving this blockage as quickly as possible to minimize damage to the heart muscle. However in restoring the supply of blood local damage known as "ischaemia-reperfusion injury" may occur.

This will help the investigators to understand the mechanism by which ischaemia-reperfusion injury may occur and to devise new treatments for heart attacks.

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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.
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?
Change in forearm blood flow in response to vasodilators (ACh(, ischaemia reperfusion and ischaemic preconditioning (time frame: 20 fixed timepoints during each study visit (3hrs)). 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 NCT00965393, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 25 Oct 2010; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
