Trial summary

Anti-platelet therapy is a key point of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treatment. Nowadays, dual anti-platelet therapy based on aspirin and ADP-P2Y12 receptor inhibitor is the preferred treatment before primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Early Initiation of Low Dose Tirofiban for Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

Anti-platelet therapy is a key point of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treatment. Nowadays, dual anti-platelet therapy based on aspirin and ADP-P2Y12 receptor inhibitor is the preferred treatment before primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). Restricted by pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics, ADP-P2Y12 receptor inhibitors cannot take effect immediately after oral administration. However, platelet glycoprotein Ⅱb / Ⅲa inhibitors take effect faster. Previous clinical trials indicated that combination of full dose of glycoprotein Ⅱb / Ⅲa inhibitor and dual anti-platelet therapy reduced AMI related ischemia events but increased bleeding events significantly. The high dose of glycoprotein Ⅱb / Ⅲa inhibitor may be the key factor contributing to the increased bleeding events. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and security of triple anti-platelet therapy based on a small dose of glycoprotein Ⅱb / Ⅲa inhibitor, aspirin and ADP-P2Y12 receptor inhibitor in AMI patients receiving PPCI.

What participants receive

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

  • TirofibanDrug

    Upon being diagnosed as ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction, if informed consent is obtained, patients start to receive Tirofiban(0.05mg/ml) intravenous drip in a dosage of 4ml/hour (patients weight<50kg) or 6ml/hour (patients weight > 50kg) lasting for 24 hours.

  • Normal salineDrug

    Also called Sodium Chloride Injection

    Upon being diagnosed as ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction, if informed consent is obtained, patients start to receive normal saline intravenous drip in a dosage of 4ml/hour (patients weight<50kg) or 6ml/hour (patients weight > 50kg) lasting for 24 hours.

What is being measured

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

  1. TFG(TIMI flow grades) grade III: complete myocardial perfusion immediately after primary percutaneous coronary intervention detected by DSA(Digital Substraction Angiography).

    TIMI flow grades: grade III.

    Measured: Immediately after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

  2. TMP(TIMI myocardial perfusion grades) grade III: complete myocardial perfusion immediately after primary percutaneous coronary intervention detected by DSA(Digital Substraction Angiography).

    TIMI myocardial perfusion grades: grade III.

    Measured: Immediately after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Remedial Tirofiban intravenous use during primary percutaneous coronary intervention procedure.

    Remedial Tirofiban use during primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

    Measured: During the process of primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

  2. ST segment

    The sum of the initial ST segment elevation drops 70% or more.

    Measured: 90 minutes after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

  3. Myocardial microcirculation perfusion estimated by cardiac magnetic (CMR).

    Myocardial microcirculation perfusion estimated by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

    Measured: 7 days after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

  4. Major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE), including a composite of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, target vessel revascularization.

    Major adverse cardiovascular events, including a composite of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, target vessel revascularization.

    Measured: 30 days after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Tirofiban and Normal saline in people with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital 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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jan 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. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 Zhangwei Chen, MD (+8602164041990 ext. 612747, chen.zhangwei@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

TFG(TIMI flow grades) grade III: complete myocardial perfusion immediately after primary percutaneous coronary intervention detected by DSA(Digital Substraction Angiography). (time frame: Immediately after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.). 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 22 Jan 2020.
