About this study

The aim of the current study is to evaluate prospectively whether concomitant administration of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockers (namely ACE-I and ARBs') influence the change in estimated glomerular filtration rate or GFR (eGFR) after administration of contrast media in patients undergoing non-emergent coronary angiography.

Read the detailed description

Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is defined as an absolute or relative increase in serum creatinine compared to the baseline values, together with exposure to a contrast agent and exclusion of alternative explanations for renal impairment. Most frequently the renal impairment develops 48 hours post exposure. Although RAAS blocking agents are widely used among patients requiring contrast studies, data regarding the effect of these agents on the development of CIN are sparse and inconsistent. Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention are frequently treated with RAAS blocking agents. Despite the not infrequent occurrence of CIN following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) no guidelines are available on the topic of the cessation of the RAAS inhibitors prior to the procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stop angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker (ACE-I/ARB) in people with Radiographic Contrast Agent Nephropathy, run by Soroka University Medical Center.

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 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 8 Jun 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

change in eGFR from baseline to 48-72 hours following the exposure to the contrast. (time frame: 48 AND 72 HOURS AFTER EXPOSURE TO CONTRAST MEDIA). 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 8 Jun 2015.
