About this study

Official title: Preventive Effect of the PRetreatment With Intravenous Nicorandil on Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Patients With RenaL Dysfunction UndEergoing Coronary Angiography (PRINCIPLE Study): A Investigator-initiated, Control- Randomized, Phase IV Multicenter Study

Renal hypoxia plays an important role in the development of contrast-induced nephropathy. The purpose of the PRINCIPLE study is to investigate the effect of pretreatment with intravenous nicorandil on the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with renal insufficiency undergoing coronary angiography.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • pretreatment with intravenous nicorandil vs. placebo before coronary angiographyDrug

    Also called Nicorandil group versus Control group

    • Nicorandil group: Pretreatment with intravenous Nicorandil (Sigmart for injection, Choongwae Pharma, Seoul) 12 mg in 0.9% saline 100 ml over 2 hours starting from 1 hour prior to coronary angiography
    • Control group: Pretreatment with intravenous 0.9% saline 100 ml over 2 hours starting from 1 hour prior to coronary angiography

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study of Chronic Renal Failure, run by Yonsei University 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 4 inclusion and 14 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 6 Feb 2012. 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. 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.

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 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?

Incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy defined as an increase in serum creatinine ≥25% or ≥0.5 mg/dl (time frame: at 24 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Feb 2012.
