About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Empagliflozin on Cardiac-renal Injury in Patients With Acute ST-segment-elevation Myocardial Infarction After Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.

This study is a single-center, prospective controlled trial addressing effectiveness of empagliflozin on cardiac-renal injury in patients with STEMI. Patients were randomized using a computer-generated sequence to either placebo or empagliflozin at a 1:1 ratio. Investigators, participants, and other study personnel were blinded to the assigned treatment for the duration of the study. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effects of empagliflozin on myocardial infarct size measured using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) methods at 3 months. Key secondary endpoint: incidence of CIAKI within 48h after PCI. Inclusion Criteria:Patients with STEMI who were admitted to the Chinese PLA General Hospital were recruited between Ocotor 2018 and January 2019. STEMI was defined as typical chest pain lasting >30 minutes within the previous 12 hours, a clear ST-segment elevation of >0.1 mV in two or more contiguous electrocardiographic leads, and elevated blood levels of troponin T.Exclusion Criteria:Cardiogenic shock ,Hypoglycaemia ,Diabetic ketoacidosis,Genital and urinary infections,History of myocardial infarction,Stent thrombosis,Previous coronary artery bypass surgery,Type 1 Diabetes,Severe hepatic insufficiency,Advanced cancer patients,eGFR<30 ml/min.

All patients were informed of the potential risks (genital mycotic infections, urinary tract infections, diabetic ketoacidosis) associated with empagliflozin and then required to submit written informed consent before being included in the study. Patients were randomized using a computer-generated sequence to either placebo or empagliflozin at a 1:1 ratio. Patients in the empagliflozin group were treated with empagliflozin whereas patients in the control group were given placebo. The treatment started 30 minutes before PCI with a dose of 10 mg empagliflozin or placebo administered in the ambulance. After admission, patients were treated with 10 mg empagliflozin once daily for 3 mouths.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Empagliflozin in people with Reperfusion Injury, Myocardial, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital.

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 11 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 19 Jul 2018. 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. 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.

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?

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?

final infarct size (time frame: 3 months after PCI). 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 19 Jul 2018.
