Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult men and women who present to an ED/CPU with signs and symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) and an intermediate-to low risk profile in whom an early rule-out strategy for AMI is applied and who therefore undergo single combined troponin and copeptin testing at admission as part of standard management.

Who may be able to join

  • Admission to the Emergency Department or CPU with signs and symptoms consistent with acute coronary syndrome
  • Low-to intermediate risk profile (GRACE-score below 140 and a low- to intermediate likelihood of ACS as judged by the treating physician)
  • Patients eligible for the early rule-out strategy using combined copeptin and troponin testing at admission, irrespective of biomarker test results and disposition decision
  • full-aged patient

Who cannot join

  • none

Read the detailed description

Registry of an interventional Study-proved Strategy (BIC-8) using Copeptin and Troponin for the Early Rule-Out of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) in Patients with Suspected Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and a low-to intermediate risk profile.

Primary objective:

To monitor the safety of the early rule-out strategy using combined testing of copeptin and troponin at admission of patients with signs and symptoms suggestive of ACS and a low- to intermediate risk profile, who are discharged or moved to another hospital after testing copeptin and troponin negative (defined as copeptin below 10 pmol/l and cardiac troponin below 99th percentile URL).

Secondary objectives:

  • To monitor routine application of the early rule-out strategy, patient characteristics, risk profile of all patients tested for copeptin and troponin at admission, irrespective of their biomarker test result
  • To monitor diagnoses, clinical course and outcome of all patients tested for copeptin and troponin at admission

What participants receive

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

  • Routine management observationProcedure or surgery

    Early rule out of myocardial infarction with combined copetine and troponin testing at admission

What is being measured

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

  1. All-cause mortality

    One-month all-cause mortality in patients in whom acute myocardial infarction is ruled-out using the early rule-out strategy and who are therefore discharged from the ED

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Charite University, Berlin, Germany at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 May 2017. 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 Germany. 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?

All-cause mortality (time frame: 30 days). 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 NCT02490969, 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 24 May 2017.
