About this study

Official title: Study of the Concordance Between a Traditional Protocol of Stress and Rest Myocardial Tomoscintigraphy Using 99mTc-sestamibi and a Double Isotope Protocol Using Thallium-201 and 99mTc-sestamibi, With a Semiconductor Camera

The purpose is to demonstrate the concordance of diagnostic information obtained with:

  1. a conventional examination with 2 distinct recordings on D.SPECT camera after 99mTc-sestamibi injections, the first post-stress and the second at rest, 2 to 3 hours later, and
  2. a double isotope examination with a supplementary recording after injection of a little activity of thallium-201 at rest after the first recording and before the second injection of 99mTc-sestamibi for conventional recording at rest, in patients showing abnormalities of myocardial perfusion in stress myocardial tomoscintigraphy.
Read the detailed description

Myocardial perfusion tomoscintigraphy is very used for diagnosis and characterization of abnormalities of stress and rest myocardial perfusion. This examination can be performed with semiconductor gamma cameras that are more performant than conventional cameras regarding spatial resolution, detection sensitivity and energy resolution.

The amelioration of energy resolution could allow the realization of simultaneous recordings of a dye injected at rest and another injected during stress (double isotope recording), while conventional examination needs 2 different recordings, stress and rest, separated from several hours.

In this study patients undergo a conventional examination with D.SPECT camera with 2 recordings, the first after injection of a little activity of 99mTc-sestamibi at stress (≤ 100 MBq) and the second, 2 hours later, after injection at rest of a 3 time bigger activity of 99mTc-sestamibi (≤ 300 MBq). An activity of thallium-201(≤ 50 MBq) is injected at rest after the first recording of stress. 5 minutes later, a supplementary double isotope recording is realized with D.SPECT camera (99mTc-Sestamibi-stress / thallium201-rest).

The demonstration of the hypothesis of this study could considerably diminish the duration of the examination (from 3 to 4 hours to less than 1 hour).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tomoscintigraphy with D.SPECT camera (SPECTRUM Dynamics®, Israel), 99mTc-Sestamibi and Thallium-201 in people with Myocardial Perfusion, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 2 sites in France.

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 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Aug 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 France. 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?

Quality of images obtained with double isotope tomoscintigraphy and conventional tomoscintigraphy (time frame: day 0). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 Aug 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
