About this study

Official title: Door To Unloading With IMPELLA CP System in Acute Myocardial Infarction to Reduce Infarct Size (DTU): A Prospective Feasibility Study

Direct active unloading of the left ventricle with the Impella CP System prior to PPCI in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is safe and feasible

Read the detailed description

A multi-center, prospective, randomized, two-arm feasibility trial to assess the potential role of unloading with the Impella CP prior to revascularization in reducing infarct size. The study design includes 1:1 randomization between: 1) Delay Arm: 30 minutes of unloading with Impella CP prior to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI); and 2) Immediate Arm: initiation of Impella CP unloading followed immediately by PPCI.

Study Hypothesis: Direct active unloading of the left ventricle with the Impella CP System prior to PPCI in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is safe and feasible

What is being measured

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

  1. Infarct size at 30 Days

    Assessment of infarct size as percent of left ventricular (LV) mass, evaluated using CMR, at 30 days post-PPCI

    Measured: 30 Days

  2. MACCE at 30 Days

    A composite of the following Major Adverse Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) at 30 days:

    • Cardiovascular mortality
    • Re-infarction
    • Stroke/TIA
    • Major vascular complication

    Measured: 30 Days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Infarct Characteristics - LV mass

    Using CMR at 3-5 \& 30 days, assessement of Infarct size as a percent of LV mass

    Measured: 3 - 5 and 30 Days

  2. Infarct Characteristics - area at risk

    Using CMR at 3-5 \& 30 days, assessment of Infarct size as a percent of area (myocardium) at risk,

    Measured: 3 - 5 and 30 Days

  3. 30 Day Safety Endpoint Rates

    Event rate for All-cause mortality, Cardiovascular mortality, Re-infarction, Stroke/TIA, Vascular complications, Worsening heart failure or hemodynamic compromise requiring inotropic or hemodynamic support post Impella explant, Repeat revascularization, Aortic valve injury or dysfunction, Renal failure, Hemolysis, Hematoma, Bleeding, Thrombocytopenia

    Measured: 30 Days

  4. Infarct Characteristics microvascular obstruction

    Using CMR at 3-5 \& 30 days, measurement of percent of microvascular obstruction (%MVO)

    Measured: 3-5 and 30 Days

  5. Left Ventricular Function- LV end systolic and diastolic volume index

    Using CMR imaging post PCI: assessment of LV end systolic and diastolic volume index (LVESVi \& LVEDVi)

    Measured: 3-5 and 30 Days

  6. Left Ventricular Function - Ejection Fraction

    Using CMR at 3-5 \& 30 days post PCI: assessment of Ejection fraction (EF)

    Measured: 3-5 and 30 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Impella unloading prior to PPCI in people with STEMI, run by Abiomed Inc. at 15 sites 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?

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 6 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites 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. 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?

Infarct size at 30 Days (time frame: 30 Days). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03000270, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 May 2019.
