About this study

Official title: The Safety and Efficacy of OCT in the Evaluation and Treatment of Angiographically Borderline Coronary Artery Lesions

To find out the safety and efficacy of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in the evaluation and treatment of angiographically borderline coronary artery lesions in a Chinese population, and to compare the effectiveness of OCT versus SPECT in treating such subjects. All the participants included in the study will be those that are found to have borderline coronary artery lesions on coronary angiography, in whom the investigators feel that OCT will be useful to assess whether PCI will be of benefit to the treatment of the lesion pathology, or whether optimal medical therapy is the most appropriate treatment modality. Those participants who declined OCT will be offered SPECT as an alternative method to assess and treat the borderline coronary artery stenosis.

It is estimated that OCT guided "PCI or not" has a non-inferiority to SPECT's in the borderline coronary artery stenosis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OCT in people with Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University at 1 site 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 1 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 17 Jul 2020. 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 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.

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?

MACEs (time frame: 12 months). 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 17 Jul 2020.
