About this study

Official title: Action of Glycation and Inflammation in Operative Ischemic Heart Disease

This study requires the consecutive enrollment of 60 patients following the first event of acute myocardial infarction, evaluating B-Cell Activating Factor (BAFF) and methylglyoxal (MGO) levels in the acute setting (pre-reperfusion) and 3 months after reperfusion.

Read the detailed description

This study requires the consecutive enrollment of 60 patients at admission for first acute myocardial infarction. At enrollment, before reperfusion, a blood sample is obtained to measure B-Cell Activating Factor (BAFF) and methylglyoxal (MGO) levels in the acute setting. This measure is then repeated at follow-up visit 3 months after reperfusion. The aim of the study is to identify specific subsets of patients and evaluate biomarkers variations.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Feb 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Missing enrollment at study centre). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Identification of Inflammatory Biomarkers (BAFF) linked to ischemic event and outcome (time frame: Day 0). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05112731, which also lists 7 linked publications.

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 16 Feb 2024.
