Trial summary

The aim of the trial is to assess coronary artery reactivity using adenosine-induced coronary flow reserve (CFR) by transthoracic echocardiography in patients with Bio-active stent (BAS) and Everolimus-eluting stent (EES) distal to the original culprit lesion at 6-8 months.

About this study

The aim of the trial is to assess coronary artery reactivity using adenosine-induced coronary flow reserve (CFR) by transthoracic echocardiography in patients with Bio-active stent (BAS) and Everolimus-eluting stent (EES) distal to the original culprit lesion at 6-8 months.

Read the detailed description

Objective: The aim of the trial is to assess coronary artery reactivity using adenosine-induced coronary flow reserve (CFR) by transthoracic echocardiography in patients with Bio-active stent (BAS) and Everolimus-eluting stent (EES) distal to the original culprit lesion at 6-8 months.

Design: BASE-CFR is a substudy of the larger randomized multicenter BASE-ACS trial comparing bio-active Titan stent to everolimus-eluting stent in patients with acute coronary syndrome. CFR assessment will be performed at 6-8 months after stent implantation at the same time with OCT assessment. In-stent restenosis will be ruled out using OCT.

Primary endpoint: CFR at 6-8 months after stent implantation.

Secondary endpoint: Coronary flow velocity at baseline and during adenosine-induced hyperemia 6-8 months after stent implantation..

Association of CFR to unendotheliazed stent struts and stent malapposition.

Enrollment: 40 patients (20 receiving BAS and 20 receiving EES).

Clinical site: Satakunta Central Hospital, Finland Turku University Hospital, Finland

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by The Hospital District of Satakunta at 2 sites in Finland.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 5 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Finland. 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?

Coronary flow reserve (CFR) (time frame: 6-8 months after stent implantation). 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 NCT01080872, which also lists 2 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 5 May 2011.
