Trial summary

An acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction occurs due to occlusion of one or more coronary arteries, causing transmural myocardial ischemia which in turn results in myocardial injury or necrosis. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) may lead to the development of heart failure (HF). Read more about this study

About this study

An acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction occurs due to occlusion of one or more coronary arteries, causing transmural myocardial ischemia which in turn results in myocardial injury or necrosis. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) may lead to the development of heart failure (HF). Accessible diagnostic tools commonly used in HF such as natriuretic peptides and (NYHA) classification reflect already overt clinical HF. Troponin and creatine kinase reflect myocardial damage, but their usefulness in predicting long-term LVR is limited. Recent guidelines on HF management stressed that HF onset may be delayed or prevented through certain Interventions, such as pharmacotherapy ,post infarction rehabilitation, or modification of HF risk factors. Therefore, it is important to identify potential markers, which would be more informative of HF preclinical stages to recognize patients with an increased risk of HF onset, and to start treatment in advance (1) Gal-3 participates in inflammation and pro fibrotic pathways, while sST2 is a biomarker of inflammation, cardiac mechanical strain, and tissue fibrosis, both of which may predict LVR (2).

sST is a biomarker of inflammation, cardiac mechanical strain, and tissue fibrosis(3).

B_type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is elevated in acute myocardial infarction and is a quantitative biochemical marker related to the extent of infarction and left ventricular systolic dysfunction(4).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction and HF - Heart Failure, run by Assiut University.

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 1 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 18 Feb 2022. 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 Aya Khalifa Abdelzaher (+201158166015, aya.khalifa150@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

investigate the association of Gal-3, sST2 and BNP concentrations and the development of clinically overt HF in patients after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (time frame: 7 months). 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 18 Feb 2022.
