About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Coronary CT Angiography and Radionuclide Stress Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Symptomatic Inpatients With Known Coronary Artery Disease

What participants receive

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

  • Coronary CT angiographyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Coronary CTA, Coronary CT, CTA of the coronary arteries, CT of the coronary arteries

    EKG-gated, computed tomography angiography of the coronary arteries during heart rate control

  • Myocardial perfusion imagingProcedure or surgery

    Also called MPI, MPS, stress MPI, stress MPS

    Stress radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants that undergo subsequent cardiac catheterization but do not have consequent coronary angioplasty, stenting or bypass

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Length of hospital stay (time to discharge)

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Number of participants that have a subsequent non-fatal myocardial infarction

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Number of participants that die due to any cause

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Number of participants that experience a procedural complication due to non-invasive imaging, cardiac catheterization or coronary revascularization

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coronary CT angiography and Myocardial perfusion imaging in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Angina Pectoris, run by Montefiore Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 8 Apr 2015. 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 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. 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 was stopped early (reason given: low recruitment). 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?

Number of participants that undergo subsequent cardiac catheterization but do not have consequent coronary angioplasty, stenting or bypass (time frame: 3 months). 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 8 Apr 2015.
