Trial summary

1. The main aim of the first specific protocol initiated by the European CMR registry, suspected CAD, is to demonstrate that patients presenting for work up of suspected coronary artery disease, which have a completely normal CMR scan will have a low risk for cardiovascular events. 2.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Consecutive patients undergoing CMR (enrolled into the "European clinical practice"-part of the registry Consecutive patients with suspected coronary artery disease or with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (enrolled into the specific protocols "suspected-CAD" or "HCM-SCD").

Who may be able to join

  • European clinical practice: Consecutive patients with accomplished CMR.
  • -Suspected-CAD: Consecutive patients with suspected coronary artery disease undergoing a combined CMR protocol including evaluation of LV function, assessment of myocardial ische¬mia by adenosine stress perfusion or high-dose dobutamine CMR and detection of myocardial infarction using contrast-enhanced CMR.
  • HCM-SCD: Consecutive patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy undergoing a combined CMR protocol including LV function, rest perfusion, and detection of myocardial scarring by contrast-enhanced CMR. The diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is based on the demonstration of a hypertrophied, non-dilated left ventricle (wall thickness of at least 15 mm in adults or the equivalent relative to body-surface area in children) in the absence of another cardiac or systemic disease capable of producing a similar degree of hypertrophy. In adult relatives of the patients with hypertrophic cardiomyo¬pathy, a wall thickness of 13 mm or more will be considered a criterion for diagnosis.

Who cannot join

  • European clinical practice: None
  • Suspected-CAD: Missing informed consent. Patients with known CAD by invasive coronary angiography or previous MI.
  • HCM-SCD: Missing informed consent. Patients with known CAD by invasive coronary angiography or previous MI. Patients with left ventricular hypertrophy of other causes (e.g. hypertension, valvular heart disease)

About this study

Official title: European Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Registry

  1. The main aim of the first specific protocol initiated by the European CMR registry, suspected CAD, is to demonstrate that patients presenting for work up of suspected coronary artery disease, which have a completely normal CMR scan will have a low risk for cardiovascular events.
  2. The main aim of the second specific protocol initiated by the European CMR registry, HCM-SCD, will be to evaluate CMR for risk stratification in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM).
  3. This registry is sought to collect data on the general use of CMR in the European clinical practice, its safety and its therapeutic implications in a high number of cases to 1) substantiate the clinical yield of CMR and 2) to define additional clinical questions worth to be investigated in detail as additional specific protocols in the future.

What is being measured

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

  1. collect data from a large number of patients regarding the general use of CMR in European clinical practice, its safety and its therapeutic implications

    Measured: 01/01/2009-

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. to show that a normal CMR protocol (incl. LV wall motion at rest, stress ischemia, and scar detection) predicts a low risk of future cardiovascular events.

    Measured: 01/01/2009

  2. to evaluate if myocardial scarring assessed by contrast-enhanced CMR is a stronger predictor of adverse events during follow up than the general clinical markers of an adverse long term outcome in HCM.

    Measured: 01/01/2009-

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 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 7 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

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?

collect data from a large number of patients regarding the general use of CMR in European clinical practice, its safety and its therapeutic implications (time frame: 01/01/2009-). 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 NCT01197677, which also lists 3 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 7 Sep 2016.
