About this study

Official title: To Assess the 12-month Prognostic Significance of Left Ventricular Collagen Markers in Patients With Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction.

Assessment of cardiac fibrosis by echocardiography (Speckle tracking), IRM (late-enhancement imaging), biology (markers of collagen turn-over) and proteomics

Read the detailed description

Heart failure (HF) is a growing public health problem. While HF with deteriorated ejection fraction has faced numbers of (non) pharmacological advances, HF with preserved ejection fraction, which represents half of admission has today no efficient treatment.

Fibrosis is found in heart of patients with HF and preserved ejection fraction, is reponsible for stiff heart and has link to the transition to compensated/decompaseted HF and death.

The purpose of this work is to characterise myocardial fibrosis by any means to change the prognosis of patients with HF and preserved ejection fraction

Main purpose:

Assessment of cardiac fibrosis by echocardiography (Speckle tracking), IRM (late-enhancement imaging), biology (markers of collagen turn-over) and proteomics

  • Patients selection
  1. - Inclusion Criteria: Male or female > 18 and < 85 years of age. Recent HF decompensation (framingham criteria, ejection fraction > 50% with 72 hours after admission and BNP > 100 ng/L or NT-proBNP > 300 ng/L), signed inform consent.
  2. - exclusion criteria: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, constrictive pericarditis, significant respiratory disease, pulmonary hypertension, core pulmonale, end-stage kidney disease, high cardiac output HF, isolated right ventricular dysfunction, pregnancy or child-bearing, biventricular pacing, No health insurance.
  • Control group
  1. - inclusion criteria: Male or female > 18 and < 85 years of age. signed inform consent. Health insurance.
  2. - exclusion criteria: significant ischemic heart disease, significant valvular heart disease, pericarditis, pulmonary hypertension, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, constrictive pericarditis, significant respiratory disease, pulmonary hypertension, core pulmonale, end-stage kidney disease, high cardiac output HF, isolated right ventricular dysfunction, pregnancy or child-bearing, biventricular pacing, No health insurance.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Left-sided Congestive Heart Failure, run by University Hospital, Rouen at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Sep 2014. 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 France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: lack of recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

death and admission for heart failure (time frame: 2 years). 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 3 Sep 2014.
