Trial summary

The purpose of the study is to collect acoustic, ECG, and clinical data from consenting participants, so that AusculSciences can perform analysis on the sounds produced by the heart and determine the accuracy of the CAD-det System for detecting CAD. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Validation of the CAD-det System, a Novel Non-Invasive Acoustic Diagnostic for the Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease (The CAD-det Validation Study)

The purpose of the study is to collect acoustic, ECG, and clinical data from consenting participants, so that AusculSciences can perform analysis on the sounds produced by the heart and determine the accuracy of the CAD-det System for detecting CAD.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective multi-center clinical trial. Using the CAD-det, acoustic and electrical cardiac data will be collected from participants with intermediate pretest probability of CAD who are referred to invasive coronary angiography (ICA). The CAD-det recording will be administered prior to the scheduled ICA procedure. The data collected by CAD-det will be processed using AusculSciences' Data Analysis Application (DAA) to produce a patient's indication for CAD.

What participants receive

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

  • CAD-detDevice

    CAD-det test will be done on participants with suspected CAD clinically referred for ICA at a participating clinical investigation site.

What is being measured

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

  1. CAD-det to validate:

    CAD-det to detect obstructive CAD as defined as QCA diameter stenosis greater than or equal to 50%.

    Measured: up to 1 Year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. CAD-det to detect:

    1. Obstructive CAD as defined as QCA diameter stenosis greater than or equal to 50% stratified according to sex (men and women).
    2. Severity of CAD by QCA:
    3. 0 - 25% diameter stenosis (Negative for obstructive CAD);
    4. 25 - 50% diameter stenosis (Negative for obstructive CAD);
    5. 50 - 69% diameter stenosis (Positive for obstructive CAD);
    6. 70% or greater diameter stenosis (Positive for obstructive CAD); and
    7. Equivocal or non-diagnostic.

    Measured: up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CAD-det in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Cardiovascular Diseases, run by AusculSciences Canada Inc. at 2 sites in Canada.

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 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Canada. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Melissa Spero, CRN, CCRP (613 763-0088 ext. 107, melissa@ausculsciences.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

CAD-det to validate: (time frame: up to 1 Year). 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 NCT04562142, 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 24 Sep 2020.
