About this study

Official title: Efficacy Of Statins In The Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Patients With Chronic Renal Insufficiency (SCIN Trial): A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial

To determine if statin therapy plus intravenous normal saline, in patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing angiography, is superior to placebo plus intravenous normal saline therapy in the prevention of CIN.

Read the detailed description

Due to the conflict in the available data, there are no practice guidelines that are established in order to prevent contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). Our goal is to determine if statin therapy plus intravenous normal saline, in patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing angiography, is superior to placebo plus intravenous normal saline therapy in the prevention of CIN.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Sep 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Primary Endpoint. Development of CIN (Contrast-induced Nephropathy) Defined as a Postprocedure Increase in Serum Creatinine of > 0.5 mg/dL or >25% Increase From Baseline at 24 & at 48 Hours. (time frame: 48 hours). 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?
