What is being measured

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

  1. In cardiac MRI- infarct size (total late enhancement volume at day 3-7)

    MRI: magnetic resonance image

    Measured: day 3~7 after percutaneous coronary intervention

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. in-hospital and after 1-months:the major adverse cardiovascular events : death, myocardial infarction, hospitalization for heart failure, myocardial ischemia, etc.

    Measured: 1 month

  2. b. major bleeding : Hemoglobin 4 or more reduction, 2-unit If you need more than two RBC transfusions, intracranial or retroperitoneal bleeding, urgent operation for bleeding complication.

    RBC: red blood cell

    Measured: 1 month

  3. TIMI III flow count /myocardial blush score after PCI

    TIMI: thrombolysis in myocardial infarction PCI: percutaneous coronary intervention

    Measured: 1 day

  4. At cardiac MRI : LV ejection fraction,LV end-systolic volume,LV end diastolic volume,regional wall motion score index

    LV: left ventricle

    Measured: 1 week

  5. Discharge, 1- month after comparing NT-proBNP

    NT-proBNP : N-terminal pro-B-Type natriuretic peptide

    Measured: 1 month

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor (abciximab) in people with Myocardial Infarction and Angioplasty, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2026. 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 South Korea. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The study was terminated early due to a shortage of research and analytical personnel, which prevented the completion of the study as planned). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

In cardiac MRI- infarct size (total late enhancement volume at day 3-7) (time frame: day 3~7 after percutaneous coronary intervention). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Apr 2026.
