About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Ketotifen in Primary PCI Patients With STEMI

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ketotifen (MC stabilizer) on the basis of standard treatment after primary PCI in STEMI patients. The ketotifen group and the control group were the ketotifen group and the control group. The control group continued to receive STEMI standard treatment. The ketotifen group received ketotifen for 3 months on the basis of standard treatment within 24 hours after primary PCI, and was followed up for 1 year. Infarct size, as well as differences in echocardiography, markers of two-dimensional speckle tracking, inflammatory factors and MC markers, and major adverse cardiovascular events.

Read the detailed description

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the best way to improve the prognosis of patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, STEMI after PCI may still have ischemia-reperfusion injury, inappropriate ventricular remodeling and myocardial fibrosis, which may be related to the inflammatory response of STEMI. Mast cells (MCs) and their degranulation products play an important role in the inflammatory response as well as inducing a series of inflammatory factors. It has been observed in animal experiments that MC stabilizers can improve the ejection fraction, reduce myocardial infarction size and myocardial fibrosis in patients with STEMI, but there is a lack of clinical studies to confirm the role of MC stabilizers in STEMI. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ketotifen (MC stabilizer) on the basis of standard treatment after primary PCI in STEMI patients. The ketotifen group and the control group were the ketotifen group and the control group. The control group continued to receive STEMI standard treatment. The ketotifen group received ketotifen for 3 months on the basis of standard treatment within 24 hours after primary PCI, and was followed up for 1 year. Infarct size, as well as differences in echocardiography, markers of two-dimensional speckle tracking, inflammatory factors and MC markers, and major adverse cardiovascular events, to demonstrate that ketotifen can reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury and improve ventricular reperfusion in AMI. It provides new ideas for the treatment of AMI and a new basis for the optimization of STEMI treatment strategies.

What participants receive

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

  • Ketotifen FumarateDrug

    Also called Ketotifen

    Ketotifen treatment for 3 months, 1 mg each time, 1-2 times a day according to the patient's tolerance

  • standard treatmentDrug

    Also called standard

    Standard treatment methods will be determined according to the Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (2019) [19], including primary PCI, dual antiplatelet, anticoagulation, ACEI/ARB/ARNI, β-receptor blockade drugs, statins, etc.

What is being measured

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

  1. Myocardial infarct size

    Myocardial infarct size was assessed by cardiac MRI

    Measured: 3 months after myocardial infarction

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. left ventricular systolic function

    Transthoracic echocardiography to measure LVEF, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, Em/Sm

    Measured: 24 hours, 1 month, 3 months, and 12 months after myocardial infarction

  2. Left ventricular ultrasound strain

    Two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging measures the movement in the long-axis direction as the overall longitudinal strain, the movement in the short-axis direction as the overall radial strain, reflecting the degree of wall systolic thickening, and the annular motion in the short-axis direction as the overall circumferential strain

    Measured: 24 hours, 1 month, 3 months, and 12 months after myocardial infarction

  3. inflammatory factors and MC markers

    Analysis of inflammatory factors (such as TNF-α, IL1, IL6, etc.) and MC markers (chymotrypsin)

    Measured: 24 hours, 1 month, 3 months, and 12 months after myocardial infarction

  4. major adverse cardiovascular events

    MACE events (death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, unplanned revascularization, hospitalization for angina and readmission for heart failure)

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Drug-Related Adverse Reactions

    Fatigue, lethargy and lethargy, nausea and other gastrointestinal adverse reactions

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ketotifen Fumarate and standard treatment in people with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), run by Peking University Third Hospital.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 23 Aug 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Ming Cui, Doctor (+8615611908487, mingcui@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Myocardial infarct size (time frame: 3 months after myocardial infarction). 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 23 Aug 2022.
