About this study

Official title: Early Treatment With evOlocumab in Patients With sT-elevation Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Primary pCi (ExOTIC Study)

This is a prospective, multi-centre, open label, randomised study of Phase II that enrolls patients hospitalized with a diagnosis of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), comparing Evolocumab versus Standard of Care.

Read the detailed description

Primary objective of the study is to assess whether early evolocumab administration reduces infarct size in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI.

At least 150 patients will be enrolled to investigate the efficacy and safety of evolocumab administration in the acute phase of STEMI.

Patients will be followed for 1 year after the enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Infarct Size reduces infarct size in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI

    • Myocardial salvage index (MSI) at 6 months evaluated with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)

    Measured: 6 months Visit

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Inflammatory Cytokine Response

    Absolute changes of hs-C reactive protein, Interleukin 1, 6 and10, and alfa Tumor Necrosis Factor

    Measured: 6 months Visit

  2. Cholesterol LDL levels

    Absolute and percentage changes in c-LDL levels

    Measured: 6 months Visit

  3. Major adverse cardiovascular events

    Rate of composite cardiovascular death, MI or stroke

    Measured: 12 months Visit

  4. Euroqol 5-dimension questionnaire

    Euroqol 5-dimension questionnaire (minimum value 0, and maximum value 100)

    Measured: 12 months Visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Evolocumab in people with ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction, run by Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo di Pavia 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 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2024. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Infarct Size reduces infarct size in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI (time frame: 6 months Visit). 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 21 Nov 2024.
