Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

Who may be able to join

  • Adults 18 and older For the overall ASCVD population, diagnose codes for cardiopulmonary disease, including disease of the pulmonary circulation, cardiac disease, and vascular disease will be used to identify the population to be de-identified. At MU, this will include patients back to 2012, and at Seton this will include patients back to 2014, which reflect dates of data availability at each health system. For both institutions, data collection for patients identified will stop at the end of 2019.
  • For the chart review population, patients with hospitalization for cerebrovascular disease (e.g. stroke/TIA), coronary heart disease (i.e. myocardial infarction), and peripheral vascular disease (e.g. limb ischemia) will be eligible.

Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: The Learning Registry Creating the Learning Healthcare Platform of the Future: High Risk ASCVD Registry for Longitudinal Follow Up

The Learning Registry is a retrospective, exempt study. Researchers form the Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI) will utilize de-identified data managed by Cerner for population health analytics as part of a ongoing registry of patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Cerner is an electronic health record company utilized by a large number of health systems in the United States. As part of their services to the health systems that they work with, they have created platform for population health management called HealtheIntent. HealtheIntent uses individual data from patients at a health system collected through the EMR as well as other data streams in the health system (i.e. cost data), aggregates the data, and stores it on an Amazon Web Services cloud, accessible to both Cerner and the health systems, to perform large scale population health analytics. These data may be linked as well by Cerner to the National Death Index or other data sources depending on the individual relationship with the sites.

For this retrospective study, the Study Start Date is the date contracts were executed; Primary Completion Date is the date the final dataset is available for analysis and manuscript development; Study Completion Date is the date the study is completed. Enrollment is the number of patient charts reviewed.

Read the detailed description

DCRI will utilize data on patients with ASCVD from the Cerner's health systems who have agreed to participate in the Learning Registry. Cerner will de-identify the data and place it into a cloud-based server hosted by Amazon Web Services that is password-protected and accessible only to DCRI researchers.

The research goals for the Learning Registry are,

  1. Evaluate treatment patterns and gaps in care for patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Across adults with ASCVD, treatment patterns for those groups will be evaluated, including aspirin, beta blockers, ace inhibitors, P2Y12 inhibitors, statins, and other antithrombotics. Factors associated with appropriate therapy use will be assessed, including patient level factors (age, race, sex, insurance status), clinical factors (type of ASCVD, comorbidities including kidney disease, atrial fibrillation, hypertension, diabetes, duration since last event), and system level factors (type of provider seen, frequency of contact with the healthcare system). Stratified analyses will include, but is not limited to, adults with PAD and adults who would have been eligible for the COMPASS trial.
  2. Estimate the attributable risk of modifiable risk factors on recurrent cardiovascular events in adults with established ASCVD.

Patients who present with myocardial infarction, unstable angina, stroke, and TIA will be identified. Those who have been previously seen in the outpatient setting will be evaluated for the presence of pre-existing cardiovascular disease to identify those with CVD prior to their event. Risk factor control prior to the event will be assessed. The amount of disease potentially preventable by risk factor control, as well as utilization of novel secondary preventive therapies including rivaroxaban will be evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease, run by Duke University 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 1 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 20 Jan 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.

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?

Utilization of guideline-directed medical therapy in adults with ASCVD (time frame: September 2018-March 2020). 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 20 Jan 2023.
