About this study

Official title: PROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS BETWEEN TRIMETAZIDINE Versus PLACEBO IN MYOCARDIAL INJURY AFTER PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION IN PATIENTS WITH INSTANT ANGINA AND DIABETES MELLITUS

Introduction: Recent studies have suggested that trimetazidine may help reduce myocardial damage following percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the evaluation of the potential of this medication in the reduction of myocardial damage in patients with diabetes mellitus and unstable angina, in a prospective and randomized way, has not yet been described. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the use of trimetazidine versus placebo in patients with diabetes mellitus and unstable angina undergoing coronary stent angioplasty. Methodology: For this, a unicentric, randomized, double blind and prospective study will be performed in a comparative manner. Hospital data (test results, medical outcomes, drug dose, complications) of patients will be analyzed for safety and effectiveness. Myocardial damage will be measured by means of ultrasensitive Troponin dosages. Expected results: The use of trimetazidine reduces myocardial damage in patients with diabetes mellitus and unstable angina undergoing coronary stent angioplasty.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
trimetazidineExperimentalThe randomization will be done with a list generated by the central pharmacy of the Hospital das Clínicas, Medical School, USP. When the patient is randomized to the trimetazidine pill group, he / she will initiate the medication at 70 mg oral dose (2 tablets of Vastarel ® MR 35 mg single dose) 2 hours before the procedure.
Receives: Drug: trimetazidine
placeboExperimentalThe randomization will be done with a list generated by the central pharmacy of the Hospital das Clínicas, Medical School, USP. When randomized to the placebo oral tablets group, the patient will receive placebo (orally, 2 single dose tablets) also 2 hours prior to PCI.
Receives: Drug: Placebo Oral Tablet

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing trimetazidine in people with Diabetes Mellitus and Angina, Unstable, run by University of Sao Paulo General Hospital at 1 site in Brazil.

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 8 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 24 Oct 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 Brazil. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Alexandre Soeiro, MD (+55112661-5299, alexandre.soeiro@bol.com.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

peak values of troponin and CKMB after PCI (time frame: 24 hours). 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 24 Oct 2018.
