Trial summary

This study is being conducted in patients with a major heart attack caused by a blocked artery undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) to open up the blockage. Up to 50% of people with an heart attack are found to have one or more additional narrowings that did not cause the heart attack. Read more about this study

About this study

This study is being conducted in patients with a major heart attack caused by a blocked artery undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) to open up the blockage. Up to 50% of people with an heart attack are found to have one or more additional narrowings that did not cause the heart attack. At present the best way to manage these additional blockages is not known. Many cardiologist recommend opening these blockages at at a later time after the heart attack. The present study is examining if PCI of all blockages at the same time as the PCI for the artery that caused the major heart attack (SS-PCI) will reduce the amount of heart damage compared to performing PCI of additional blockages 2-45 days later (IRA-PCI). Clinical follow up will be completed at 3, 12 and 24 months to determine heart function and monitor adverse events.

What participants receive

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

  • Same sitting PCI with complete revascularizationProcedure or surgery

    revascualrization of the non IRA (infarct related artery) of > 2.0 mm by coronary angioplasty/stenting at the time of primary PCI

  • Staged PCI with complete revsacularization >48 hours pf primary PCIProcedure or surgery

    revascualrization of the non IRA (infarct related artery) of > 2.0 mm by coronary angioplasty/stenting >48 hours to 45 days post primary PCI

Study groups in NCT03263468
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Same sitting complete revascularizationExperimentalAfter treatment of the IRA, subjects will undergo PCI of all suitable significant non-IRA lesions (≥70% by visual assessment or FFR<0.80 in 50-70% lesions with vessel diameter >2mm).
Receives: Procedure: Same sitting PCI with complete revascularization
Staged non-IRA PCIActive comparatorOnly the IRA will be intervened upon during the index primary PCI procedure. Staging of the non-IRA lesions will be performed 48 hours to 45 days after the primary PCI procedure. All suitable non-IRA lesions (≥70% by visual assessment or FFR<0.80 in 50-70% lesions with vessel diameter >2mm) will be treated with PCI irrespective of whether there are clinical symptoms or evidence of ischemia.
Receives: Procedure: Staged PCI with complete revsacularization >48 hours pf primary PCI

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Same sitting PCI with complete revascularization and Staged PCI with complete revsacularization >48 hours pf primary PCI in people with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Coronary Stenting, run by Unity Health Toronto.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 28 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Val Panzov (416-864-6060 ext. 7125, panzovv@smh.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major adverse clinical events (time frame: 90 days). 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 28 Aug 2017.
