Trial summary

Coronary artery intervention with stents is a routine procedure with several clinical indications. A stentfailure, ie stentrestenosis and/or stentthrombosis will occur in some patients. Several different mechanisms have been suggested. Stentfailure may be caused by mechanical properties of the stent. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Guided Compared to Conventional Angiography Guided Coronary Intervention in Stentfailure

Coronary artery intervention with stents is a routine procedure with several clinical indications. A stentfailure, ie stentrestenosis and/or stentthrombosis will occur in some patients. Several different mechanisms have been suggested. Stentfailure may be caused by mechanical properties of the stent. This may be secondary to suboptimal stentimplantation, ie over/undersizing or acquired ie malapposition or stentfracture. These stentproperties may be difficult to identify with conventional coronary angiography due to low image resolution. The hypothesis of the study is that high resolution imaging with optical coherence tomography (oct) will improve diagnosis and enable a more specific or tailored treatment with a subsequent reduction in later stentfailure.

Read the detailed description

The hypothesis of the PROCTOR study is that high resolution imaging with optical coherence tomography (oct) will improve diagnosis and enable a more specific or tailored treatment in stent failure. However, the prevalence of stentfailure (ie stent malapposition, stentfracture, stentedgedissections etc) not causing clinical endpoints is not known. In a subset of patients (n=100) with previously implanted stents performing a new coronary angiography based on clinical indication, functional or patent stents (decided by Heart team) will be characterized with OCT and the patients followed for 5 years. The purpose of this substudy, OCT IPS (OCT In Patent Stents), is to estimate the prevalence of stentpathology in patent or functional stents and compare findings with the active arm of PROCTOR.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Optical coherence tomography and Coronary angiography in people with Myocardial Infarction and Angina, run by Oslo University Hospital at 1 site in Norway.

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 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Sep 2019. 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 Norway. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Stopped due to slow inclusion). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Target lesion revascularisation (time frame: 5 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 3 Sep 2019.
