About this study

Official title: Randomized Comparison Multicenter Trial of High Dose Atorvastatin Pre-treatment on Microcirculatory Dysfunction After Drug-ElutIng Stent Implantation in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Pre-treatment with statins decreased the incidence of cardiac enzyme increase after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and distal embolization suspected to cause post-PCI myocardial damage. This study evaluates the effect of high dose atorvastatin pre-treatment on post-procedural index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) values that are introduced for assessing the status of the microcirculation.

Read the detailed description

One hundred patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome will be randomly assigned to either high dose atorvastatin pre-treatment group(80 mg loading within 24 hours plus 40mg busting within 2 hours before PCI) or control group(atorvastatin 10mg administration within 24 hours before PCI). An intracoronary pressure/temperature sensor-tipped guidewire is used. Thermodilution curves are obtained during maximal hyperemia. The IMR was calculated from the ratio of the mean distal coronary pressure at maximal hyperemia to the inverse of mean hyperemic transit time. Creatine kinase-myocardial band(CK-MB) and CRP level will be measured at baseline and at 12~24 hours after PCI.

What is being measured

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

  1. Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR)

    After stent implantation and adjunctive balloon dilatation, final angiogram will be taken. If the final angiogram shows successful results, IMR will be measured and the procedure will be finished.

    Measured: Immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (death, myocardial infarction, target vessel failure

    Measured: 1 year after index procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pre-procedural High dose atorvastatin loading and No pre-procedural high-dose atorvastatin loading in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by The Korean Society of Circulation at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 2011. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Bong-Ki Lee, MD, PhD (+82-10-6373-9290, nicedr@nate.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) (time frame: Immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention). 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 13 Dec 2011.
