Trial summary

Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.

About this study

Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.

Read the detailed description

Bivalirudin is widely used as an anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary heart disease. Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI . However, whether prolonging infusions of bivalirudin could prevent ischemic complications is unknown. The investigators examined the effects of prolonged drug infusion after elective PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.

What participants receive

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

  • bivalirudinDrug

    Bivalirudin is an alternative to heparin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

  • HeparinDrug

    Heparin is used in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

What is being measured

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

  1. creatine kinase-MB increase

    creatine kinase-MB increase >3 times upper limit of normal

    Measured: up to postprocedural 72 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. bleeding(BARC class)

    including BARC class 2-5

    Measured: 30 days and 1 year

  2. major adverse cardiac or cerebral events

    a composite of all cause death, reinfarction, target vessel revascularization or stroke

    Measured: 30 days and 1 year

  3. Net Adverse Clinical Events

    a composite of all cause death, any myocardial infarction, any target vessel revascularization, stroke or any bleeding

    Measured: 30 days and 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing bivalirudin and Heparin in people with Coronary Disease, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital at 2 sites in China.

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 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yundai chen, doctor (+08613581886786, dingyutinkle@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

creatine kinase-MB increase (time frame: up to postprocedural 72 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 NCT02787317, 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 1 Jun 2016.
