About this study

Official title: Randomized Trial Between the Transfemoral Approach With AngioSeal and the Transradial Approach to Prevent Vascular Access Complications in Non-ST-Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients Submitted To Early Invasive Strategy

Among non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome patients submitted to early invasive strategy and randomized for the transfemoral or transradial approach, the AngioSeal vascular closure device would decrease the prevalence of vascular complications at puncture site, reaching the non-inferiority criterion when compared to the radial access.

Read the detailed description

Antithrombotic therapy and percutaneous or surgical myocardial revascularization procedures are the basis of the treatment of patients admitted with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome. However, the desired reduction of the recurrence of ischemic events has as complication an increased incidence of bleeding. Since arterial puncture followed by the insertion of an introducer has become the standard method to perform invasive cardiovascular procedures, complications related to vascular access have become an important bleeding site.

Among the strategies to decrease vascular complications, the transradial approach is a well stablished alternative to the transfemoral approach. For its part, vascular closure devices were introduced to decrease vascular complications, homeostasis time and ambulation time of patients submitted to invasive procedures by the transfemoral access. Rapidly incorporated to the clinical practice, such devices to date have shown conflicting results with regard to their safety and efficacy. The inconsistency of data proving its safety limits its routine adoption as strategy to prevent vascular complications, requiring evidences through adequately designed randomized studies for this end.

What participants receive

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

  • Percutaneous coronary interventionDevice

    Also called AngioSeal vascular closure device, TR Band radial artery compression device

    Both transradial and transfemoral coronary angiography will be performed by the Judkins technique using arterial introducers with 6 French diameter and pre-molded catheters for selective catheterization of left and right coronary arteries.Percutaneous coronary intervention will be indicated when a culprit lesion is identified, with stenosis diameter severity ≥ 70%, with high probability of angiographic success, being ideally performed immediately after coronary angiography and left ventriculography. Patients with multiarterial coronary disease will be submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention after agreement among cardiologist, interventional cardiologist and thoracic surgeon. Procedures will be performed according to recommendations and provisions of current guidelines.

What is being measured

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

  1. First Occurrence of Access Site Related Ischemic or Bleeding Complication

    Vascular and systemic complications at arterial puncture site include major bleeding, retroperitoneal hemorrhage, compartment syndrome, hematoma ≥ 5 cm, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, infection, limb ischemia, asymptomatic arterial occlusion, adjacent nerve injury or need for vascular surgery repair.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse Ischemic or Bleeding Events

    Individual components of the primary objective, hematoma < 5 cm, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, major bleeding unrelated to puncture site or to coronary artery bypass grafting, device success and crossover rate between techniques

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Percutaneous coronary intervention in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Irmandade Santa Casa Misericórdia Marília at 1 site in Brazil.

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 4 inclusion and 13 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 Dec 2018. 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 Brazil. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Oct 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

First Occurrence of Access Site Related Ischemic or Bleeding Complication (time frame: 30 days). 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 NCT01653587, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Dec 2018.
