What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of no-reflow/slow-flow phenomenon after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

    Measured: a day

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Rise in CK-MB and troponin I or T the next morning after PCI (Peak of CK too in case of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction )

    Measured: a day

  2. Incidence of clinical events including mortality, major adverse cardiac events, and Hospitalization for heart failure

    Measured: 10months

  3. Improvement of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade compared with baseline

    Measured: 8-12months

  4. TIMI flow grade

    Measured: 8-12months

  5. Corrected TIMI frame count

    Measured: 8-12months

  6. Myocardial blush grade

    Measured: 8-12months

  7. Incidence of any revascularization

    Measured: 8-12months

  8. Incidence of stent thrombosis

    Measured: 8-12months

  9. Plaque protrusion by IVUS inside the stent

    Measured: 8-12months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Filtrap™ + Thrombus aspiration catheter and Thrombus aspiration catheter in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Yokohama City University Medical Center at 1 site in Japan.

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 9 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 20 Apr 2017. 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 Japan. 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?

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?

Incidence of no-reflow/slow-flow phenomenon after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (time frame: a day). 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 NCT01460966, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Apr 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
