About this study

Official title: A Randomized Multicentre Trial to Compare Early With Deferred Invasive Strategy for Patients With Acute ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Presenting 24-48 Hours From Symptom Onset

The primary objective of the trial is to compare the efficacy of early with deferred invasive strategy for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) within 24-48h of symptom onset.

Read the detailed description

At present, timely primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the preferred strategy for STEMI patients within 24h of symptom onset. In stable STEMI patients presenting 12 to 48 hours from symptom onset, BRAVE-2 Trial (n = 365) showed improved myocardial salvage and 4-year survival in patients treated with primary PCI compared with conservative treatment alone. However, data is scarce about the reperfusion strategy focusing on STEMI patients within 24-48h of symptom onset.

To our knowledge, due to the long onset time and insufficient antiplatelet/anticoagulant treatment, infarct-related artery in STEMI patients beyond 24h of symptom onset frequently suffer from severer thrombus burden. In this situation, the risk of no-reflow in primary PCI is high. Meanwhile, myocardial coagulative necrosis would be fully developed during 24-72h from symptom onset, the risk of perioperative cardiac rupture may also rise. These bring some doubts about the benefits of early invasive strategy for STEMI patients within 24-48h of symptom onset. Further investigations are warranted to explore the best timing of invasive strategy for STEMI patients within 24-48h of symptom onset.

Given that no randomized clinical trial is designed especially for STEMI patients within 24-48h of symptom onset, and limited data is available to compare early with deferred invasive strategy for the subgroup of STEMI patients, investigators plan to perform a controlled, randomized trial to compare the efficacy of early with deferred invasive strategy for STEMI patients within 24-48h of symptom onset.

What is being measured

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

  1. A composite of death from any cause, recurrent myocardial infarction, ischaemia-driven target vessel revascularization, or hospitalization due to NYHA class IV heart failure

    Measured: 4 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. No-reflow in infarct-related artery

    The definition of no-reflow was Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade ≤ 2 on the final angiogram in a coronary angiographic analysis.

    Measured: Immediately after PCI

  2. Major adverse cardiac events (defined as a composite of cardiac death, recurrent myocardial infarction, or ischaemia-driven target vessel revascularization)

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Stroke

    The diagnosis of stroke required confirmation by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging of the head in the presence of a new onset focal or global neurological deficit lasting more than 24 hours.

    Measured: 30 days

  4. Death from any cause

    Measured: 4 years

  5. Recurrent myocardial infarction

    Measured: 4 years

  6. Ischaemia-driven target vessel revascularization

    Measured: 4 years

  7. Hospitalization due to NYHA class IV heart failure

    Measured: 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Deferred invasive strategy and Early invasive strategy in people with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital.

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 12 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 5 Oct 2020. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xin Zhong, M.D. (+86 13585678706, zhong.xin@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

A composite of death from any cause, recurrent myocardial infarction, ischaemia-driven target vessel revascularization, or hospitalization due to NYHA class IV heart failure (time frame: 4 years). 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 5 Oct 2020.
