Single armOtherThis is an Head to Head Comparison between Rubidium-82 PET and Tc-99m-MIBI SPET with CTA as gold standard. All the patients will undergo the three imaging protocols.
Receives: Drug: Rubidium-82; Drug: Sestamibi. reconstitution with sodium pertechnetate (99mTc)

What is being measured

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

  1. The specificity of detecting significant coronary artery disease (as defined as being >70% stenosis, on coronary CT angiography)

    The primary objective is to compare PET vs. SPET, with the primary outcome being the specificity of detecting significant coronary artery disease (as defined as being >70% stenosis, on coronary CT angiography).

    Measured: Up to 2 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Evaluate any difference in the clinical interpretation of the Rubidium-82 PET and Tc-99m-MIBI SPET images.

    Measured: Up to 2 days

  2. Evaluate any difference in "Percentage myocardium" that is hypoperfused, between Rubidium-82 PET and Tc-99m-MIBI SPET.

    Measured: Up to 2 days

  3. Evaluate any difference in image quality, artefacts and interpretative confidence between Rubidium-82 PET and Tc-99m-MIBI SPET.

    Measured: Up to 2 days

  4. Evaluate any adverse events or reactions, during Rubidum-82 or Tc-MIBI administration.

    Measured: Up to 2 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rubidium-82 and Sestamibi. reconstitution with sodium pertechnetate (99mTc) in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Advanced Accelerator Applications at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 14 May 2014. 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 United Kingdom. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

The specificity of detecting significant coronary artery disease (as defined as being >70% stenosis, on coronary CT angiography) (time frame: Up to 2 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 14 May 2014.
