About this study

Official title: Prognostic Impact of Lesion-specific Hemodynamic Index and Disease Characteristics in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Assessed by Fractional Flow Reserve

The investigators aim to investigate the additive prognostic value of lesion-specific hemodynamic index such as ΔFFR, non-hyperemic pressure ratio such as RFR, over % diameter stenosis and FFR according to treatment strategy, and to find the prognostic implications of post-PCI FFR after adjustment of various clinical and disease characteristics, and to construct a comprehensive risk prediction model for post-PCI outcomes.

Read the detailed description

Fractional flow reserve (FFR)-based revascularization is the currently best practice recommended by guidelines. In addition to the use of coronary physiological indices as a vessel-specific metric, recent studies suggested the clinical importance of local hemodynamics in prediction of risk for target vessel failure or acute coronary syndrome in patients with coronary artery disease. In patients who receive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the absolute value and pattern of FFR change after stenting are helpful in defining the additional target for PCI and risk stratification after PCI. However, there has been no prospective study that proved the benefit of change in FFR across the lesion (ΔFFR) in daily clinical practice, and FFR usage after stenting is much less than before stenting. Accordingly, we will prove the benefit of ΔFFR in addition to FFR, prognostic implications of combining RFR and FFR, and the comprehensive risk model with post-PCI FFR, clinical and disease characteristics in a prospective study, to maximize the benefit of invasive physiologic assessment.

What participants receive

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

  • Fractional flow reserveDiagnostic test

    Physiologic assessment includes Δ FFR (lesion-specific) and FFR (vessel-specific) measurement. Δ FFR is defined as a pressure step up across the lesion. Coronary angiography and physiologic assessment will be analyzed by an independent core laboratory (Seoul National University Hospital, Clinical Trial Center, Seoul, South Korea).

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adverse cardiovascular event according to ΔFFR (Deferral of PCI group) (time frame: Upto 2 years after index procedure). 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 NCT05250557, which also lists 14 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 22 Feb 2022.
