About this study

Official title: Application of CT-derived Fractional Flow Reserve in Patients With Coronary Heart Disease After Drug-coated Balloon Intervention

In recent years, based on CCTA data, CT-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) developed by artificial intelligence and other technologies can provide both anatomical and functional information of coronary artery disease. Compared with CCTA alone, CT-FFR has a better ability to diagnose coronary ischemic lesions and can effectively reduce the need for unnecessary ICA, to predict revascularization more accurately.

Read the detailed description

Drug-coated balloon (DCB) intervention is a non-drug treatment of coronary heart disease with the advantage of "no implantation". In recent years, it is more and more used in primary coronary artery disease. Timely detection of restenosis after DCB is very important to ensure the safety of patients. Invasive coronary angiography (ICA) is the "gold standard" to reflect coronary artery stenosis, but it is difficult to become a routine follow-up tool for surgical trauma, radiation exposure and other reasons, let alone for elderly patients.

Coronary artery computed tomography angiography (CCTA) can provide a variety of anatomical information such as the degree of coronary artery stenosis and the nature of plaques. It is a commonly used tool for non-invasive imaging diagnosis of coronary heart disease. However, because of its low diagnostic specificity and can not reflect the lesion-related myocardial ischemia, the positive rate of coronary heart disease and the rate of revascularization in patients undergoing ICA are low. In recent years, based on CCTA data, CT-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) developed by artificial intelligence and other technologies can provide both anatomical and functional information of coronary artery disease. A number of studies have shown that, compared with CCTA alone, CT-FFR has a better ability to diagnose coronary ischemic lesions and can effectively reduce the need for unnecessary ICA, to predict revascularization more accurately. Due to the absence of metal foreign body implantation, DCB intervention makes it possible for CT-FFR to be used in imaging evaluation after DCB. At present, there is no study on the use of CT-FFR in patients after DCB.

In this study, the self-developed CT-FFR based on artificial intelligence was used for the first time to analyze coronary artery lesions in patients after DCB, and to compare the guiding value of CT-FFR and simple CCTA in ICA and revascularization, in order to provide an ideal non-invasive imaging follow-up tool for elderly patients after DCB.

What participants receive

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

  • CT-FFRDiagnostic test

    CCTA examination will be performed by qualified medical imaging technicians, and patients will be scanned with 256rows of CT, according to standard operating norms. The coronary artery physiological function evaluation software(Keya Medical Technology, Beijing, China)will be configured in the core laboratory in advance, and the relevant imaging analysts will be trained. The core laboratory will receive the CCTA inspection data and evaluate the CCTA image quality. According to the standard operation flow of the software specification, the CT-FFR analysis will be carried out on the images that meet the requirements, and the CT-FFR value of the lesions will be measured.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Feb 2023. 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 China. 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 the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of non-obstructive coronary heart disease in ICA examination (time frame: Clinical follow-up at 6 months after ICA or CT-FFR). 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 Feb 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
