About this study
Official title: SHam-controlled INtErvention to Improve QOL in CTOs: the SHINE CTO Trial
Design: Single center, double-blind, sham-controlled trial that will randomize symptomatic patients with a coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) to CTO percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or a sham procedure. All patients will receive optimal medical therapy.
Treatment:CTO PCI, as per standard clinical practice.

Control: Patients randomized to sham-procedure will undergo only bilateral arterial access, without angiography or PCI being performed.
Secondary Endpoints: (1) Greater improvement in SAQ-7 Summary scores during the entire duration of follow-up (6 months) using a repeated measures analysis (2) Greater improvement in individual components of patients' health status (3) Greater improvement in exercise capacity (4) Similar incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), both peri-procedural and long-term

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Chronic Total Occlusion of Coronary Artery, run by Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation.
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 8 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
Are results available for this study?
The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.
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?
Greater improvement in disease-specific health status, as assessed by the 7-item Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) Summary Score (SAQ-7, an established measure of health status in patients with coronary artery disease) (time frame: 1 month). 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 NCT02784418, which also lists 6 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 7 Jun 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
