Trial summary

The investigators plan to use retrospective data to assess heart function and structure abnormalities through the use of an approved vasodilating agent for stress cardiac MRI tests. The investigators are interested in how these MRI findings relate to long-term prognosis in people who are at risk for cardiac disease. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Role of Stress CMR in Predicting Adverse Clinical Events in Patients With Known or Suspected Ischemic Heart Disease

The investigators plan to use retrospective data to assess heart function and structure abnormalities through the use of an approved vasodilating agent for stress cardiac MRI tests. The investigators are interested in how these MRI findings relate to long-term prognosis in people who are at risk for cardiac disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. A composite outcome measure consisting of cardiovascular mortality and nonfatal MI after index CMR.

    "Myocardial infarction" will be defined as hospital admission for acute coronary syndrome (defined by positive serum troponin level with documented electrocardiographic changes, clinical syndrome, or need for percutaneous or surgical revascularization).

    Measured: target follow up of at least 4 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. A composite outcome measure consisting of cardiovascular mortality, nonfatal MI, hospitalization for unstable angina or congestive heart failure, and late unplanned coronary bypass surgery at at least 6 months after index CMR.

    "Heart failure hospitalization" will be defined as any hospitalization for signs and symptoms of volume overload or dyspnea requiring diuretic therapy regardless of LV ejection fraction.

    Measured: target follow up of at least 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Brigham and Women's Hospital at 2 sites in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 0 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 6 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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?

A composite outcome measure consisting of cardiovascular mortality and nonfatal MI after index CMR. (time frame: target follow up of at least 4 years). 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 NCT01821924, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Nov 2025.
