About this study

Official title: Optimal Target of Activated Clotting Time During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Outcomes: The Randomized OPTIMAL-ACT Trial

The purpose of this study is to find the ideal range of the activated clotting time (ACT) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) that is associated with lowering the rate of undesirable medical outcomes

Being tested
Unfractionated heparin

What participants receive

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

  • Unfractionated heparinDrug

    Administration of unfractionated heparin will be assessed using the activated clotting time

What is being measured

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

  1. Bleeding

    Number of subjects to experience bleeding defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 1, 2, 3 or 5 or EASY hematoma classification after transradial/ulnar procedures (I-V)

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented bleeding event up to 24 hours

  2. Adverse Clinical Events

    Number of subjects to experience a Net Adverse Clinical Event (NACE) defined as all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, target lesion revascularization, or major bleeding

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Stent Thrombosis

    Number of subjects to experience stent thrombosis

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Unfractionated heparin in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Ischemic Heart Disease, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site 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?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 13 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 4 Apr 2023. 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Apr 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Bleeding (time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented bleeding event up to 24 hours). 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 4 Apr 2023.
