About this study

Official title: Randomized Comparison of Everolimus Eluting Stents and Sirolimus Eluting Stent in Patients With ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) (RaCES-MI Trial)

Randomized trial to test the efficacy and safety of newer Drug Eluting Stent generation in patient with acute myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

Read the detailed description

The efficacy and safety of drug-eluting stents (DES) in the treatment of coronary artery disease is well established. It is well known that Drug Eluting Stent (DES) have dramatically decreased Restenosis rates for both on-label and off-label indications. However, the concern for increased (late) stent thrombosis is still present DES implantation in patient with acute myocardial infarction is still controversial because acute coronary lesion presents the highest possible thrombotic burden Newer DES with new antiproliferative drugs and more biocompatible polymers have shown a significant reduction of (late) stent thrombosis in patients in stable condition.

Aim of the study was to asses the long term efficacy and safety on second generation everolimus eluting stent compared with first generation sirolimus eluting stent

Being tested
everolimus eluting stent, sirolimus eluting stent

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing everolimus eluting stent and sirolimus eluting stent in people with Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by San Giuseppe Moscati Hospital at 1 site in Italy.

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 6 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 4 Apr 2013. 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 Italy. 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?

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?

cardiac death, reinfarction and Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR) (time frame: 36 MONTHS). 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 NCT01684982, which also lists 7 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 4 Apr 2013.
