Trial summary

1. The prevalence of significant and complex obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is high in patients who have low extremity artery disease (LEAD). 2. Long-term prognosis of LEAD undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) remains poor and CAD is an independent predictor of total mortality after PTA. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prognostic Impact of ROUtine Coronary CathETerization in Low Extremity ArTEry Disease Undergoing Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PIROUETTE-PTA Study)

  1. The prevalence of significant and complex obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is high in patients who have low extremity artery disease (LEAD).
  2. Long-term prognosis of LEAD undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) remains poor and CAD is an independent predictor of total mortality after PTA.
  3. This prospective randomized controlled trial will evaluate the prognostic effects of routine versus selective coronary angiography before PTA for LEAD and elucidate the potential mechanism.
Read the detailed description
  1. participants
  2. eligible participants are randomly assigned to systemic strategy or selective strategy
  • participants allocated to systemic strategy will receive routine coronary angiography before PTA without a previous non-invasive stress test
  • subjects allocated to selective strategy will undergo non-invasive evaluation of possible myocardial ischemia by using dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) or dipyridamole thallium 201 myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (dTS) followed by coronary angiography if the test is positive for ischemia
  1. participants who are not willing to be randomized will be included in the registration group
  2. revascularization
  3. a staged approach (myocardial revascularization first followed by PTA) and simultaneous approach (percutaneous coronary intervention immediately followed by PTA at the same time if clinically suitable) are both allowed
  4. the duration from revascularization to PTA should be within 60 days
  5. percutaneous coronary intervention is performed at the time of coronary angiography, using bare metal or drug-eluting stents
  6. blood sampling, genotyping, and measurement of biomarkers and microRNA
  7. bood samples (20 mL) are obtained from peripheral arteries in all study subjects before PTA and 10 mL after PTA and are prepared and stored for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), genotyping and measurement of microRNAs in plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells
  8. outcome follow-up a. clinical outcomes are obtained by chart review if the patient is still in the hospital and followed up by clinic visit, telephone call or direct contact with participants or subjects' family at 30 days after indexed PTA if the patient has been discharged from the hospital and every 6 months thereafter

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Systemic StrategyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Routine Coronary Angiography before PTA

    Significant CAD needing further revascularization is defined as patients who have luminal stenosis > 70% of the major epicardial vessels and bypass graft vessel or their major branches (> 50% for left main trunk or in-stent restenotic lesion) with reference vessel larger than 2.5 mm in diameter and moderate area of vulnerable myocardium for ischemia. Intermediate stenotic lesions should be determined if they are hemodynamic significant by fractional flow reserve (FFR) (<=0.8). The choice of revascularization procedure, either percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass surgery, depends on operator's or cardiovascular team's suggestion and patient's decision.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to Composite of Major Adverse Cardiac Event (MACE)

    cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, and any unplanned coronary revascularization

    Measured: up to 48 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. MACE between the Screening and 30 days after PTA

    cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, and any unplanned coronary revascularization

    Measured: 30 days after indexed PTA

  2. Time to Composite of major coronary events

    fatal or nonfatal myocardial infarction, recurrent angina pectoris, and any unplanned coronary revascularization

    Measured: Up to 48 months

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to Composite of Major Adverse Cardiac Event (MACE) (time frame: up to 48 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 NCT02169258, which also lists 4 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 25 Sep 2015.
