About this study

Official title: Multicenter Evaluation of Coronary Dual Source CT Angiography in Patients With Intermediate Risk of Coronary Artery Stenoses

The trial will investigate the accuracy of Dual Source CT coronary angiography to detect coronary artery stenoses in patients with chest pain who have, based on clinical criteria, an intermediate likelihood for the presence of coronary artery stenoses. No beta blockers will be used to lower the heart rate for the examination. The hypothesis is that Dual Source CT will allow the detection of vessels with at least one coronary artery stenosis with a sensitivity of more than 90%.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy for the detection of coronary artery stenoses

    Invasive coronary angiography will be preformed within 72 hours to verify coronary CT angiography results.

    Measured: 72 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety of Ultravist 370 and Ultravist 300 for coronary CT angiography

    Patients will be monitored for one hour after injection of Ultravist 370 and Ultravist 300 intravenously to assess safety and detect side effects.

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Erlangen-Nürnberg Medical School at 8 sites in 5 countries.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Aug 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Germany, Denmark, India, Mexico, Singapore. 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 Stephan Achenbach, MD (++49 9131 8535000, stephan.achenbach@uk-erlangen.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Accuracy for the detection of coronary artery stenoses (time frame: 72 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 27 Aug 2010.
