Histopathology of the Aspirated Thrombus During Acute Myocardial Infarction

An observational study of Thrombosis and Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Hillel Yaffe Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

This study was initiated on the preliminary premise that a thrombus whose formation was triggered by a thrombogenic substrate, such as within an atherosclerotic plaque (Tissue factor initiated thrombus), may evolve differently than the one evolving at the site of a recently implanted stent (foreign body triggered).

About this study

This study was initiated on the preliminary premise that a thrombus whose formation was triggered by a thrombogenic substrate, such as within an atherosclerotic plaque (Tissue factor initiated thrombus), may evolve differently than the one evolving at the site of a recently implanted stent (foreign body triggered). Consequently, the thrombus composition of a de novo clot could differ from the other one, extracted during the occurrence of a subacute thrombosis, regarding the number of various cells, the amount of fibrin and platelet aggregates and the relationship among these components. In addition, it seems relevant to evaluate the numbers and the distribution of the local monocytes, once these cells may interact with platelets (via cell -adhesion mechanisms e.g., by CD31 [PECAM-1]) and by the extrinsic coagulation pathway (via TF/FVII elaborated by plaque-resident macrophages). Such a distinction, if eventually found, may reveal the mechanisms of thrombosis within coronary arteries, and may have clinical implications.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of Possible Difference in Composition of Thrombi Aspirated during Acute Myocardial Infarction Precipitated by de novo vs Subacute Thrombosis

    Analysis of thrombotic specimen contents aspirated during Acute Myocardial Infarction by searching for possible differences in the components of the thrombotic debris, whether cellular, or fibrin and platelets, in accordance with clinical parameters.

    Measured: two years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thrombosis and Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Hillel Yaffe Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2012. 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 Israel. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of Possible Difference in Composition of Thrombi Aspirated during Acute Myocardial Infarction Precipitated by de novo vs Subacute Thrombosis (time frame: two 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 23 Oct 2012.
