About this study

Official title: Physician I.D.E. G#040160; Low Risk Carotid Stenting Study Using Bivalirudin at PinnacleHealth Hospitals and Holy Spirit Hospital

Prospective, non-randomized, single-center cohort study treating internal carotid artery stenosis using the Xact Carotid Artery Stent and emboshield distal protection system in conjunction with bivalirudin as the procedural anticoagulation

Read the detailed description

Primary objective is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the XACT stent and emboshield with Angiomax as the procedural anticoagulant.

Primary safety endpoint is the occurrence of Major Adverse Events, defined as death, myocardial infarction (Q or non Q wave), and from target revascularization at one year

Being tested
Carotid PTA and stenting
Keywords
internal carotid artery, common carotid artery, bruit, tia
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

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

  1. Major adverse events, defined as death, ipsilateral stroke, myocardial infarction,(Q and non-Q wave) or major bleeding as 30 days post procedure

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Freedom from vascular complications ;Acute success defined by lesion, device, and procedural success; Freedom from any death, stroke MI (Q, non-Q wave), and from target lesion revascularization at one year

    Measured: 1 Year

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

Contact Rajesh M Dave, MD (717-724-6450, rdintervention@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major adverse events, defined as death, ipsilateral stroke, myocardial infarction,(Q and non-Q wave) or major bleeding as 30 days post procedure (time frame: 30 days). 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 31 Jul 2014.
