Trial summary

Coronary artery narrowings interfere with blood flow to the heart which can cause chest pain and heart attacks. Cardiologists can treat these narrowings with balloons and stents. However, some narrowings can become very calcified and hard making treatment with balloons and stents difficult. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Strategy to ROTAblate and PACE (ROTA-PACE) Study

Coronary artery narrowings interfere with blood flow to the heart which can cause chest pain and heart attacks. Cardiologists can treat these narrowings with balloons and stents. However, some narrowings can become very calcified and hard making treatment with balloons and stents difficult. Rotational atherectomy is a tool to treat calcific coronary disease. It uses an ablative drill to break down the hardened plaques inside the coronary arteries facilitating subsequent treatment with balloons and stents. However, during this procedure patients can experience a slow heart rate which may compromise procedural safety. Cardiologists may use a temporary pacemaker that is inserted by separately accessing the heart through a large vein usually from the leg. This maintains a safe heart rate throughout the procedure. However, inserting the temporary pacemaker is associated with additional complications. We have developed and propose an alternative strategy to provide a temporary safety pacemaker during rotational atherectomy without the need for inserting an additional pacemaker.

What is being measured

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

  1. Successful ventricular pacing

    Ability to obtain successful ventricular capture prior to rotational atherectomy

    Measured: At the start of the PCI procedure immediately prior to rotational atherectomy

  2. Ventricular pacing threshold

    The pacing threshold to obtain successful ventricular capture

    Measured: At the start of the PCI procedure immediately prior to rotational atherectomy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Complications

    (a) Coronary wire-related intractable spasm (unresponsive to vasodilator therapy); (b) coronary wire-related perforation; (c) New atrial or ventricular arrhythmia

    Measured: At the end of the PCI procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Coronary Artery Calcification, run by Vancouver Island Health Authority at 1 site in Canada.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 3 Jun 2022. 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 Canada. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Bilal Iqbal, MD PhD FRCPC (2505953111, bilal.iqbal@viha.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Successful ventricular pacing (time frame: At the start of the PCI procedure immediately prior to rotational atherectomy). 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 NCT05404204, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Jun 2022.
