About this study

Infarct size is a major determinant of vital prognosis after AMI. We recently reported that cyclosporine A, when administered immediately prior to PCI reperfusion, can significantly reduce infarct size in STEMI patients. The CIRCUS study aimed at determining the impact of cyclosporine on the combined incidence of (death, hospitalization for heart failure, LV remodelling) at one year after AMI. However, many patients may display increased adverse LV remodelling beyond year 1 and develop heart failure thereafter. The present CIRCUS II trial aims at examining the 3-year clinical outcome of all patients recruited in the CIRCUS study.

Being tested
Injection of Cyclosporin, Placebo, Echocardiography

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Injection of Cyclosporin and Echocardiography in people with ST Elevation Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site 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 10 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 22 May 2018. 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 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. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

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?

Combined incidence of [total mortality; hospitalization for heart failure; LV remodeling (increase of LV end-diastolic volume > 15%)] (time frame: at 12 months post-AMI.). 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 22 May 2018.
