Trial summary

Despite a relatively high prevalence of non-atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (NACAD) among young women, the majority of these abnormalities were misdiagnosed in this population, and thus treatments were not targeted adequately in this patient population. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prospective Registry of Young Women With MI: Evaluating the Prevalence and Long-term Impact of Non-atherosclerotic CAD (PRYME)

Despite a relatively high prevalence of non-atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (NACAD) among young women, the majority of these abnormalities were misdiagnosed in this population, and thus treatments were not targeted adequately in this patient population. Furthermore, the short and long-term cardiovascular outcomes of young women with NACAD have not been evaluated. Given the importance of NACAD in young women, the challenges of diagnosis and subsequent treatment, and unknown outcomes with NACAD, we propose a prospective registry to further evaluate this population. We propose to evaluate young women (age < or equal to 55) presenting with myocardial infarction (MI) prospectively, to diagnose the etiology of MI differentiating atherosclerotic versus NACAD, to correlate the prevalence of FMD in other vascular territory, and to evaluate the long-term outcome of young women with NACAD in comparison to those with atherosclerotic CAD over a 5-year follow-up.

Read the detailed description

All women aged 55 or younger having a coronary angiogram for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) will be approached prior to their procedure. A pregnancy test will be performed (standard for pre-menopausal women due to potential radiation exposure). If the cause of the heart attack is uncertain (eg no obvious infarct-related narrowing or occlusion), intravascular ultrasound or optimal coherence tomography will be performed within the context of the angiogram to better view the artery wall. A picture of the iliac and renal arteries will be accomplished by aortography (one dye shot down the aorta); in the case that the renal arteries are not well visualized, selective renal angiography will be performed (catheter at the entry to the renal artery). In the case of suspected non-atherosclerotic abnormalities, a head CT angiogram wil be performed. Referral to appropriate specialists for detected abnormality will occur. If symptoms continue, the subject will be followed by a cardiologist. A research coordinator will contact the subject at 1, 6 and 12 months and then annually to collect data on medications, hospitalization and symptoms.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the etiology of MI

    To evaluate the etiology of myocardial infarction among young women (age < or equal to 55) based on angiographic and adjunctive imaging by core laboratory assessment

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Evaluate the relative distribution of normal coronary arteries, atherosclerotic, and non-atherosclerotic CAD in this population of young women with MI

    Evaluate the relative distribution of normal coronary arteries, atherosclerotic, and non-atherosclerotic CAD in this population of young women with MI

    Measured: 5 years

  3. to screen for the prevalence of SCAD and coronary FMD as the predominant non-atherosclerotic cause for MI in young women

    to screen for the prevalence of SCAD and coronary FMD as the predominant non-atherosclerotic cause for MI in young women

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myocardial Infarction, run by Cardiology Research UBC at 1 site in Canada.

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 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 15 Jan 2021. 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 Canada. 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?

Evaluate the etiology of MI (time frame: 5 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Jan 2021.
