Trial summary

Inflammation in the arteries of the heart may increase the risk of cardiac death. The proposed research seeks to identify the potential beneficial role of a safe anti-inflammatory medication, colchicine, on reducing damage caused by opening up a blockage in the arteries of the heart.

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 to 99 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers

Who may be able to join

  • Referred for possible PCI

Who cannot join

  • Colchicine use within 1 month
  • History of colchicine intolerance
  • Glomerular filtration rate <30mL/minute or on dialysis (due to the need to adjust colchicine dose in this setting)
  • Active malignancy or infection (major confounder with increased inflammatory markers)

Show all 11Show fewer
  • Use of anti-inflammatory agents (except aspirin) within 5 halflives of the individual drug
  • Use of strong Cytochrome P450, Family 3, Subfamily A, Polypeptide 4 (CYP3A4) and/or P-glycoprotein inhibitors (e.g. ritonavir, ketoconazole, clarithromycin, cyclosporine, diltiazem and verapamil, again due to drug interactions)

About this study

Official title: Anti-inflammatory Therapy During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Inflammation in the arteries of the heart may increase the risk of cardiac death. The proposed research seeks to identify the potential beneficial role of a safe anti-inflammatory medication, colchicine, on reducing damage caused by opening up a blockage in the arteries of the heart. With its quick onset of action and excellent safety profile, colchicine may have the potential to reduce risk of major adverse events related to the heart. This research also seeks to better understand the role of neutrophils, the most common type of inflammatory white blood cell in the body, when there is damage to the heart.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will use colchicine as a tool to elucidate the role of neutrophil activation during acute vascular injury, and to explore the association between neutrophil activation and adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Colchicine reduces cell surface expression of selections, adhesion molecules key to neutrophil recruitment after vascular injury. Daily colchicine use is associated with reduced adverse cardiovascular events in stable atherosclerosis. Using a clinical percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) model, the investigators evaluate whether pre-procedural colchicine (1.8 mg oral load over one hour) reduces the rate of post-PCI adverse cardiovascular outcomes in the context of a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized study. The investigators will also characterize neutrophil biology in acute vascular injury and the effects of colchicine on neutrophil biology in this setting.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study of Coronary Artery Disease and Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by VA Office of Research and Development at 1 site in United States.

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 11 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 21 Feb 2023. 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 United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Jul 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Peri-procedural Myocardial Necrosis (time frame: 24 hours). 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 NCT02594111, which also lists 2 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 21 Feb 2023.
