About this study

Official title: Validation of an Intracycle CT Motion CORrection Algorithm for Diagnostic AccuracY: A Prospective Multicenter Study

To demonstrate the incremental utility of SSF for individuals undergoing CCTA, with expected improvements in image quality and diagnostic accuracy.

Read the detailed description

Hypothesis: Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) employing a novel intracycle motion compensation algorithm (SnapShot Freeze [SSF]) will be superior to CCTA without an intracycle motion compensation algorithm ("conventional" CCTA) for diagnostic accuracy and image quality.

Scientific Basis: Preliminary study (Leipsic, Min, Journal of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography [in press]) of coronary CT angiograms in individuals undergoing pre-procedural assessment for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (n=36) demonstrate improved image quality of CCTA using SSF compared to CCTA not using SSF. Importantly, individuals in this study did not receive heart rate slowing agents (e.g., beta blockers), and diagnostic image quality was substantially improved. While not statistically powered on a per-patient basis, per-segment diagnostic accuracy of CCTA using SSF was superior to conventional CCTA. These results are complementary to those derived from internal testing at GE Healthcare wherein phantom work has demonstrated improved diagnostic performance using SSF compared to conventional image acquisitions.

Long-term Goal/Purpose: To demonstrate the incremental utility of SSF for individuals undergoing CCTA, with expected improvements in image quality and diagnostic accuracy. If the aims of this study are achieved, the use of SSF for effective temporal resolution improvement may obviate (or reduce) the need for CT hardware for improved temporal resolution.

CCTA Patient1. Consenting adult patients ≥18 years of age; 2. Suspected but without known prior history of CAD 3. Not actively taking heart rate lowering agents at least 48 hours prior to study (e.g., AV nodal blockers such as beta blockers, calcium channel blockers or digoxin) 4. Glomerular filtration rate >60 ml/min 5. CCTA and ICA within 1 week of each other with no interscan event (e.g., myocardial infarction or coronary revascularization)

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic Accuracy

    To compare the per-patient, per-vessel and per-segment diagnostic accuracy of CCTA with SSF to conventional CCTA, as compared to invasive quantitative coronary angiography.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Diagnostic Interpretability

    To compare the per-patient, per-vessel and per-segment diagnostic interpretability of CCTA with SSF to conventional CCTA, as compared to invasive quantitative coronary angiography.

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Image quality

    To compare the per-patient, per-vessel and per-segment quantitative image quality of CCTA with SSF to conventional CCTA, as compared to invasive quantitative coronary angiography.

    Measured: 30 day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Upper threshold of heart rate

    To determine the upper threshold of heart rate below which CCTA with SSF is most effective.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. incremental & additive value

    To determine the incremental \& additive value of SSF to conventional CCTA for diagnostic accuracy / diagnostic interpretability / image quality.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Coronary Arteriosclerosis, run by MDDX LLC at 7 sites in 5 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 12 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 3 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States, Argentina, Canada, India, 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.

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?

Diagnostic Accuracy (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 Apr 2015.
