About this study

Official title: Intensive Statin Treatment in Chinese Coronary Artery Disease Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention(PCI)

This randomized, open label, controlled, parallel group study is designed to test whether 2-day high dose atorvastatin administration before PCI and 30-day continuous intensive atorvastatin treatment is superior to usual care, in terms of peri-PCI cardiovascular events, as well as 6-month prognosis. The goal is to set up an optimized protocol for peri-PCI statin treatment in Chinese CHD patients. Safety will also be observed.

Read the detailed description

The study objective is to test whether 2-day high dose atorvastatin administration before PCI and 30-day continuous intensive atorvastatin treatment is superior to usual care, in terms of peri-PCI cardiovascular events, as well as 6-month prognosis.

2160 patients with non-ST segment elevated acute coronary syndrome (ACS)or stable angina pectoris (SAP) scheduled for selective PCI are randomized into two groups. The study group is given atorvastatin 80 mg/d×2d before PCI while the control group receives usual care. After angiography, patients who are not undergoing PCI procedure will be excluded from the study as selection failure. After PCI procedure, the study group is given atorvastatin 40mg/d until 30 days after PCI while the control group receive usual care. The last visit will be at 6 months after PCI. Patients data such as troponin, CK-MB, Scr, CCR, ALT, AST before and after procedure will be recorded. 1100 effective patients will be finally enrolled.

The study will be conducted at about 54 centers in China. Data will be collected on 2,100 NSTE or SAP patients undergoing PCI.

Primary outcome: MACE within 30 days after PCI. Secondary outcome: Post-procedural change of inflammatory biomarkers (hs-CRP); Morbidity of CIN; Proportion of patients who experience at least once AST > 3ULN,ALT > 3ULN or CK > 5ULN after initiation of study treatment. Proportion of patients who experience at least once AST, ALT, or CK>ULN after initiation of study treatment; Proportion of patients who take reduced dose of atorvastatin, withdraw study treatment, or withdraw study due to adverse events; Combined endpoint of death, cardiac death, myocardial infarction, heart failure, cardiac hospitalization, revascularization, and cerebrovascular events within 6 months after PCI.

What participants receive

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

  • AtorvastatinDrug

    Atorvastatin 80mg/d ×2d before PCI. After PCI, atorvastatin 40mg/d until 30 days later, and then followed by usual care

  • StatinDrug

    Also called Liptor, Zocor, Pravachol, Lescol

    Usual care, but statin dose should not be higher than that described in exclusion criteria

What is being measured

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

  1. 30-day MACEs after PCI

    30-day major adverse cardiovascular events (combined endpoints of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and target vessel revascularization ) after PCI

    Measured: 30 days after PCI

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Post-procedural change of inflammatory biomarkers (hs-CRP)

    Post-procedural change of inflammatory biomarkers (hs-CRP)

    Measured: 24 hours after PCI

  2. Morbidity of CIN

    Morbidity of CIN

    Measured: 48 hours after PCI

  3. Elevation of ALT, AST and CK

    Proportion of patients who experience at least once AST>3UNL,ALT>3UNL or CK>5UNL after initiation of study treatment. Proportion of patients who experience at least once AST, ALT, or CK>UNL after initiation of study treatment.

    Measured: 6 months after PCI

  4. Adverse events

    Proportion of patients who take reduced dose of atorvastatin, withdraw study treatment, or withdraw study due to adverse events

    Measured: 6 months after PCI

  5. Combined endpoint of MACEs, cardiac hospitalization and cerebrovascular events

    Combined endpoint of death, cardiac death, myocardial infarction, heart failure, cardiac hospitalization, revascularization, and cerebrovascular events within 6 months after PCI.

    Measured: 6 months after PCI

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Atorvastatin and Statin in people with Non-ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Unstable Angina Pectoris, run by Peking University First Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 16 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 30 Apr 2013. 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 China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

30-day MACEs after PCI (time frame: 30 days after PCI). 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 30 Apr 2013.
