About this study

Official title: Effects of Ivabradine on Residual Myocardial Ischemia After PCI Evaluated by Stress Echocardiography

This is a randomized pharmacological study evaluating the effects of ivabradine in patients with residual angina after PCI. The role of ivabradine in patients with angina, without systolic dysfunction, is not yet clear. The investigators performed in all patients an echostress to evaluate the effects of therapy with ivabradine after 30 days in terms of exercise tolerance and diastolic function.

Read the detailed description

BACKGROUND. Residual angina after PCI is a frequently-occurring disease. Ivabradine improves symptoms but its role in patients without left-ventricular systolic dysfunction is still unclear. The aim was to quantify the effects of ivabradine in terms of MVO2 indicators and diastolic function.

METHODS. 28 consecutive patients with residual angina after PCI were randomized to ivabradine 5 mg twice/day(IG) or standard therapy(CG). All patients performed a stress echocardiography at the enrollment and after 30 days. Myocardial oxygen consumption was estimated from: double product(DP); triple product(TP) integrating DP with ejection-time(ET). Diastolic function was evaluated determining E and A waves, E' measurements and E/E' ratio both at rest and at the peak of exercise.

What is being measured

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

  1. Double product (DP) calculated as a product between HR and systolic blood pressure. (unit of measure: beats per minute x mmHg)

    These, indirectly, reflect the true myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) and the improvement of mechanical load that the ventricle can withstand at different levels of exercise.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Triple product (TP), calculated as a product between HR, systolic blood pressure and ejection time. (unit of measure: beats per minute x mmHg x msec)

    These, indirectly, reflect the true myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) and the improvement of mechanical load that the ventricle can withstand at different levels of exercise.

    Measured: 30 days

  3. chronotropic reserve (unit of measure: beats per minute)

    difference between resting heart rate and maximum heart rate at peak exercise

    Measured: 30 days

  4. muscular work (unit of measure: watt)

    These, indirectly, reflect the myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) and the improvement of mechanical load that the ventricle can withstand at different levels of exercise.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. diastolic function: PW Doppler E wave (unit of measure: cm/sec)

    ventricular filling echocardiographic parameter

    Measured: 30 days

  2. diastolic function: TDI derived E' measurements (unit of measure: cm/sec)

    ventricular filling echocardiographic parameter. Mitral annular E' velocity was estimated as the average between lateral and septal velocity.

    Measured: 30 days

  3. diastolic function: PW Doppler A wave (unit of measure: cm/sec)

    ventricular filling echocardiographic parameter

    Measured: 30 days

  4. E/E' ratio

    ventricular filling echocardiographic parameter. TDI derived E' measurements (unit of measure: cm/sec). PW Doppler E wave (unit of measure: cm/sec)

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ivabradine in people with Angina Pectoris, Stable, run by Azienda Policlinico Umberto I at 1 site in Italy.

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 6 inclusion and 15 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 7 Mar 2019. 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 Italy. 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 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Double product (DP) calculated as a product between HR and systolic blood pressure. (unit of measure: beats per minute x mmHg) (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 4 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 7 Mar 2019.
