Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with documented ACS or/and IS / TIA

Who may be able to join

  • Documented acute coronary syndrome (Unstable angina, non-Q-wave myocardial infarction, Q-wave myocardial infarction) or/and documented ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack (IS/TIA)

Who cannot join

  • Previously known symptomatic or asymptomatic PAD confirmed by one of the following diagnostic methods or interventions (documented in the patient's medical record):
  • Non-invasive or invasive vascular diagnostic tools (e.g.: ABI, Toe-brachial index, Duplex ultrasound, Magnetic resonance angiography, Computer tomographic angiography, Contrast angiography)
  • Previous related intervention (such as angioplasty, stenting, atherectomy, peripheral arterial bypass graft, other vascular intervention including amputation)
  • Patients whose ABI cannot be measured accurately
  • Patients already in a clinical trial or a product registry
  • Hospitalized patients
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.

About this study

Official title: The Value of Routine Screening for Diffuse Vascular Disease in the Canadian Post-Acute Coronary Syndrome/Ischemic Stroke/Transient Ischemic Attack General Practice Population With Previously Undocumented Peripheral Arterial Disease

Primary Objective:

To investigate the value of the Edinburgh Claudication Questionnaire (ECQ) against the ankle-brachial index (ABI) in Canadian patients mainly followed in general practice, with documented acute coronary syndrome (ACS)/ischemic stroke (IS)/transient ischemic attack (TIA) and who are not known to have peripheral arterial disease (PAD) at the time of enrolment.

Secondary Objective:

To collect data on the prevalence of PAD in this population as measured by ABI.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the ECQ versus ABI.

    Measured: within 12 (+/- 2) weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To determine the prevalence of symptomatic PAD (positive ECQ and ABIT <0.9)

    Measured: within 12 (+/- 2) weeks

  2. To determine the prevalence of asymptomatic PAD (negative ECQ and ABI <0.9)

    Measured: within 12 (+/- 2) weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peripheral Vascular Diseases, run by Sanofi at 1 site in Canada.

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 7 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 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 Canada. 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?

To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the ECQ versus ABI. (time frame: within 12 (+/- 2) weeks). 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 NCT01076738, 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 13 Sep 2010.
