About this study

Background:

  • INFUSE AMI is an ongoing clinical trial examining how patients with heart attacks are treated. The study's aim is to help determine the best way to treat patients with specific kinds of heart attacks caused by blood clots.
  • To evaluate the effect of the heart attack on the heart tissue and function, participants in the INFUSE-AMI study will have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the heart at specific times after their heart attack.

Objectives:

  • To perform cardiac MRI scans on patients who are participating in the INFUSE-AMI study.

Eligibility:

  • Individuals at least 18 years of age who are enrolled in the INFUSE-AMI study.

Design:

  • Participants will have an MRI scan of the heart about 5 days and between 23 and 44 days after their heart attack. The MRI scan at day 5 is optional.
  • Participants will provide a blood sample prior to the MRI scan.
  • During the scan, participants will be given a contrast drug to show the blood flow to and within the heart. An electrocardiogram will be used to monitor the heart during the procedure.
  • No other treatment will be provided in this protocol.
Read the detailed description

The purpose of this research protocol is to perform contrast enhanced cardiac MRI studies on patients enrolled in the INFUSE-AMI study (INFUSE-AMI is a multicenter, open-label controlled single-blind randomized study with up to 452 patients enrolled in approximately 50 US and European sites). Patients who present with anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction by electrocardiogram (STEMI) and an occluded proximal or mid left anterior descending artery (LAD) with TIMI 0/1 flow will be eligible for randomization to one of the following arms: 1) Local infusion of Abciximab and thrombus aspiration, 2) Local infusion of Abciximab and no thrombus aspiration, 3) No local infusion and thrombus aspiration, or 4) No local infusion and no thrombus aspiration. Cardiac MRI is performed to assess left ventricular function and infarct size for the primary INFUSE-AMI study. Thus, this local research protocol will provide the cardiac MRI scans at no cost to the participant. Additional images of the heart will be obtained for local research purposes. Cardiac MRI scans will be performed at around 5 days (optional) and at 30 days after myocardial infarction.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myocardial Infarction and Coronary Artery Disease, run by National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) at 1 site in United States.

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 0 inclusion and 11 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 13 Sep 2019. 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 United States. 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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01059214, which also lists 3 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 13 Sep 2019.
