About this study

Official title: Concordance Between Stress CMR and Coronary Angiography in Pediatric Patients With Suspected Coronary Artery Disease

stress cMRI with Dobutamine stress agent (stress cMRI), represent the combination of two orders of exams routinely performed (cMRI and stress diagnostic series of exams) without additional risk for the patient, but with the advantage of non-invasiveness and lack of radiation, and less laborious for the participants

Read the detailed description

Surgical revascularization or angioplasty are therapeutic options for coronary lesions even in infants and children. Pharmacological stress induced cMRI could provide crucial information such as coronary arteries origin and proximal pathway, wall motion abnormalities, myocardial perfusion and viability, enabling accurate monitoring of symptomatic and non-pediatric patients. Investigators would build a prospective series of stress cMRI exams in pediatric symptomatic and non-patients, with suspected or previously diagnosed coronary artery disease. Investigators would put the results in comparison with ECG, Exercise test, stress Cardiac Ultrasound and Angiography. At the end of the study, if supported by results, the aim is to replace the current diagnostic procedure (ECG, Exercise test, stress Cardiac Ultrasound and Angiography) which need long hospitalization, expose the patient to radiation dose, is uncomfortable for the patient, and is characterized by a non-negligible risk due to invasive procedure, with a single exam (stress cMRI) which is dose-free, minimal risk related, without hospitalization, and less expensive for National Care System.

What participants receive

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

  • stress cardiac MRIDiagnostic test

    pharmacological stress testing has evolved as an alternative to physical exercise for the detection of inducible myocardial ischemia

Study groups in NCT04022395
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
stress cardiac MRIExperimental* To optimize the scan protocol and the sequence parameters * To investigate the clinical compliance of stress induced cardiac MRI in pediatric patients * To test the ability of stress cMRI to visualize coronary arteries morphological irregularities, the corresponding wall motion abnormalities and perfusion - viability features
Receives: Diagnostic Test: stress cardiac MRI

What is being measured

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

  1. Multiparameters diagnostic concordance

    • Agreement of results between stress cMRI and the current practice constituted by Exercise test, Stress Cardiac Ultrasound and Invasive Angiography

    Measured: 24 month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Efficacy of stress cMRI

    Predictive value of stress cMRI to determine the incidence of post-surgical complication of switch repair, and other pathological conditions affecting coronary arteries in natural history, in comparison with tradition test. This will be measured the number coronary segments affected, and consequences on wall motion abnormalities

    Measured: 24 month

  2. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: 24 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stress cardiac MRI in people with Coronary Disease, run by Istituto Giannina Gaslini 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 12 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 8 Sep 2021. 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.

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?

Multiparameters diagnostic concordance (time frame: 24 month). 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 8 Sep 2021.
