About this study

Official title: Diagnostic Value and Practicability of Dynamic CT Stress and Rest Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Daily Clinical Practice - A Monocentric Prospective Diagnostic Study

This study aims at evaluating the feasibility of CT myocardial perfusion imaging in daily clinical practice and compare it to SPECT perfusion imaging in order to assess sensitivity and specifity of CT myocardial perfusion imaging compared to SPECT.

Read the detailed description

If after the clinically indicated CCTA a myocardial perfusion examination is indicated, first a single ultra low dose CT scan will be performed to look for late enhancement of potentially scarred myocardium. Together with the contrast agent co-injection of the clinically indicated tracer 99mTc-Tetrofosmin will be performed for later scintigraphic perfusion evaluation. After stress perfusion imaging CT rest perfusion imaging will be performed in a similar fashion. After acquisition of CT rest perfusion images scintigraphic stress and rest image acquisition will be performed as in daily clinical routine with an additional administration of 99mTc-Tetrofosmin resting dose if necessary.

CT stress and rest perfusion will be compared to the clinically indicated and well established SPECT examination.

What participants receive

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

  • CT-MPI and SPECT-MPIOther

    All patients undergo CT-MPI plus SPECT-MPI

Study groups in NCT02593838
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CTP and SPECT-MPIOtherEvery patient enrolled will undergo CT-MPI and SPECT-MPI. The latter is clinically indicated,.
Receives: Other: CT-MPI and SPECT-MPI

What is being measured

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

  1. Validation of CT-MPI against SPECT-MPI

    Sensitivity and specificity of CT-MPI to diagnose obstructive coronary artery disease using SPECTR-MPI as the standard reference

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Parameters influencing image quality of CT-MPI - Body physique

    Correlation between visually assessed image quality of CT-MPI and patient's body mass index

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Parameters influencing image quality of CT-MPI - Heart rate

    Correlation between visually assessed image quality of CT-MPI and patient's heart rate during the scan

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CT-MPI and SPECT-MPI in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Zurich at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 3 inclusion and 6 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 6 Oct 2021. 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 Switzerland. 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: Recruitment problems). 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?

Validation of CT-MPI against SPECT-MPI (time frame: 2 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 6 Oct 2021.
