Trial summary

The purpose of this research project is to improve how we treat heart attacks. The study will assess whether it might not be better to wait a few hours before implanting the coronary stent into the coronary artery rather than implanting it immediately, in order to allow the drugs to completely dissolve the clot.

About this study

Official title: Immediate vs. Delayed Stenting After Primary Percutaneous Reperfusion in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction

The purpose of this research project is to improve how we treat heart attacks. The study will assess whether it might not be better to wait a few hours before implanting the coronary stent into the coronary artery rather than implanting it immediately, in order to allow the drugs to completely dissolve the clot. This might help to reduce the risks of the clot migrating and damaging the heart. By delaying coronary stent implantation, we hope to be able to reduce the size of the infarction and reduce the risk of suffering from heart failure following a heart attack.

Read the detailed description

The PRIMACY trial seeks to assess whether a strategy of delayed stent implantation combined with adjunctive anticoagulation is superior to immediate stent implantation at improving cardiovascular outcomes in patients with mechanically reperfused ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). The investigators hypothesize that delayed stent implantation combined with systemic anticoagulation and maximal antiplatelet therapy will reduce the combined occurrence of cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, or unplanned target vessel revascularization over a 9-month period.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • StentProcedure or surgery

    Also called Thrombectomy catheter, Balloon angioplasty catheter, Coronary stent

    Percutaneous coronary intervention: reperfusion with a thrombectomy catheter or a small balloon angioplasty catheter, followed by coronary stenting

Study groups in NCT01542385
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Immediate stentingActive comparatorthe stent selection (bare metal vs drug eluting) and implantation will be performed as recommended by current practice guidelines.
Receives: Procedure: Stent
Delayed stentingExperimentalparticipants randomised to delayed stenting will be treated with GPIIb-IIIa inhibitors for 12-18 hours after reperfusion followed by anticoagulation for until the control angiogram, expected no sooner than 18-24 hours after the index reperfusion.
Receives: Procedure: Stent

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stent in people with ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction, run by Montreal Heart Institute at 16 sites in 2 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 14 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 5 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in France, 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?

The combined occurence of cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, and urgent target vessel revascularization (time frame: 9 months). 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 5 Aug 2020.
