Trial summary

Microvascular dysfunction is an independent predictor of poor prognosis. Such response in the culprit vessel is common even after successful revascularization. This study investigated whether the microvascular dysfunction differed between culprit and non-culprit vessels in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS)… Read more about this study

  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with acute coronary syndrome

Who may be able to join

  • Individuals were eligible for inclusion if they underwent PCI for ACS, if the target lesion was found in the proximal or middle segments of a major epicardial coronary artery, and if the lesion was successfully treated with a coronary stent.

Who cannot join

  • a previous infarction other than in the vessel of interest or a history of coronary artery bypass surgery, cardiogenic shock requiring inotropic support, chronic kidney disease requiring renal replacement therapy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, collateral flow to the target vessel greater than angiographic grade 1, or statin or ticagrelor use within 1 year.

About this study

Official title: Different Microcirculation Response to Ischemic Injury of Culprit and Non-culprit

Microvascular dysfunction is an independent predictor of poor prognosis. Such response in the culprit vessel is common even after successful revascularization. This study investigated whether the microvascular dysfunction differed between culprit and non-culprit vessels in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Read the detailed description

The prospective study included 115 patients with ACS. In this study, after successful PCI, culprit and non-culprit intracoronary hemodynamic measurements were performed and repeated at 6-month follow-up. 13N-ammonia positron emission tomography (PET) was performed at 6-month follow-up visit to determine absolute myocardial blood flow (MBF). The resistance values of each vessel were calculated using the coronary pressure data and the MBF values obtained from 13N-ammonia PET data. Such physiological measures were compared between culprit and non-culprit vessels in baseline and 6-month follow-up.

  • index of microcirculatory resistanceDiagnostic test

    Also called 13N-ammonia positron emission tomography

    Physiological parameters of the culprit artery after PCI were determined with the restoration of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 3 flow. Aortic pressure (Pa), distal intracoronary pressure (Pd), fractional flow reserve (FFR), coronary flow reserve (CFR) and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) were measured using a 0.014 coronary temperature and pressure-sensing guidewire (PressureWireCertus, ST. Jude Medical, MN, USA).

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline index of microcirculatory resistance at 6 months

    Physiological parameters of the culprit artery after PCI were determined with the restoration of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 3 flow. Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) were measured using a 0.014 coronary temperature and pressure-sensing guidewire (PressureWireCertus, ST. Jude Medical, MN, USA). These parameters were then determined for non-culprit vessels.

    Measured: baseline and 6-month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Dong-A University.

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 1 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 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Change from Baseline index of microcirculatory resistance at 6 months (time frame: baseline and 6-month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04169516, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Nov 2019.
