Trial summary

The randomized comparison of two strategies in coronary revascularization: bypass surgery without the use of a heart lung machine and coronary stenting procedure. The comparison comprised the occurrence of cardiac adverse events after the procedure. In addition, costs, cognitive outcomes and angiography were assessed. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Comparison of Long-term Clinical , Neurocognitive, Angiographical and Health-costs, After Stenting Versus Off-pump Coronary Bypass Surgery in Patients With Symptomatic Coronary Artery Disease

The randomized comparison of two strategies in coronary revascularization: bypass surgery without the use of a heart lung machine and coronary stenting procedure.

The comparison comprised the occurrence of cardiac adverse events after the procedure. In addition, costs, cognitive outcomes and angiography were assessed.

Read the detailed description

Coronary artery bypass surgery with use of the heart lung machine (on-pump surgery), is associated with the risk of peri-operative complications such as death, stroke, myocardial infarction, neurocognitive decline, and extended hospitalization. Bypass surgery on the beating heart without the use of the heart lung machine (off-pump surgery) has been reintroduced in clinical practice in order to reduce these complications. The Octopus cardiac wall stabilizer, developed at the UMC Utrecht, facilitates the safe construction of the grafts during the off-pump procedure. The expected advantages of off-pump surgery e.g. less-invasiveness, complete arterial revascularization, faster recovery and lower costs were the basis for the Octostent trial. We hypothesized that the off-pump surgical technique might offer an alternative for angioplasty with bare-metal stent-implantation.

The current study was designed as a randomized controlled multicenter trial comparing two strategies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coronary Revascularization in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by UMC Utrecht 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 1 inclusion and 4 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 15 Sep 2009. 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?

Major Adverse Cardiac Events (time frame: 7.5 years). 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 NCT00975858, 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 15 Sep 2009.
