About this study

Official title: Prognostic Role of Coronary Artery plaquEs in Patients With Suspected Coronary Artery Disease Using Multislice of Computed Tomography (PREDICT)

Study Type: Observational Study Design: Observational Model: Defined Population Observational Model: Natural History Time Perspective: Longitudinal Time Perspective: Prospective

Read the detailed description

The natural history of individual plaques is unknown and needs to be established. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography is a useful noninvasive imaging modality for assessing coronary plaque. Using MDCT, the researchers prospectively investigate the relationship between the presence of coronary plaques and cardiovascular events

Medical subject headings
Atherosclerosis, Cardiovascular Diseases, Coronary Artery Disease

What is being measured

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

  1. Major cardiovascular events

    Cardiovascular death, non-fatal MI, or any stroke

    Measured: 1 years after the MDCT-scan

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. all causes of hospitalization

    Requiring hospitalization

    Measured: 1 years after the MDCT-scan

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atherosclerosis and Cardiovascular Diseases, run by Inje 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 1 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: status not confirmed, 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.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Sung Uk Kwon, M.D. (82-31-910-7041, prof.mdksu@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major cardiovascular events (time frame: 1 years after the MDCT-scan). 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 NCT01142973, 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.
