Trial summary

The role of soluble circulating suppression of tumorigenicity 2 biomarker (sST2) in the ischemic heart disease patient is a debatable point. Therefore the aims of this study are to assess the plasma level of sST2 in ischemic heart disease patients versus non-ischemic ones, the acute changes in its level after… Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 40 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: All middle-old aged patients with IHD risk factors and acute or chronic coronary syndrome manifestations will undergo all routine investigations at baseline and after 24-48 hours of PCI and the levels of sST2 will be assessed for relations to acute changes in left ventricular EF by using 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (2D-TTE) and the degree of ischemia by using Modified Gensini score. At the same time, the level of sST2 in control group with normal all routine diagnostic investigations will be assessed.

Who may be able to join

  • Any patients aged 40 years or more and have the risk factors of ischemic heart disease (IHD) with coronary artery disease symptoms will be included.
  • For control subjects should be aged ≥ 40 years old with IHD risk factors including DM and HTN and without any symptoms or signs of cardiac ischemia.

Who cannot join

  • Any patient with heart failure (EF <50%), any patients with rhythm abnormalities including atrial fibrillation, obese patients, structural heart diseases, uncontrolled chronic diseases such as hypertension or diabetes mellitus, any pulmonary artery or parenchymal diseases up to respiratory failure, acute systemic infection or inflammation, and chronic/acute renal diseases.

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Cardiac Ischemia and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention on the Changes of sST2 Level

The role of soluble circulating suppression of tumorigenicity 2 biomarker (sST2) in the ischemic heart disease patient is a debatable point. Therefore the aims of this study are to assess the plasma level of sST2 in ischemic heart disease patients versus non-ischemic ones, the acute changes in its level after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and its relation to the severity of ischemia.

Read the detailed description

A comparison of ischemic patients and non-ischemic controls will be done. The plasma level of sST2 will be withdrawn at baseline and 24-48 hours after the intervention in ischemic group. Then a study ischemic group will be divided into three subgroups; subgroup-1: single vessel disease, subgroup-2: two vessels disease and subgroup-3: multivessels disease. On admission, there will be a significant difference between the group of acute/chronic coronary syndrome cases and controls as regard sST2 plasma level or not. Moreover, the differences between the three ischemic subgroups at the baseline ST2 level will be assessed. The plasma sST2 level after PCI and the correlation between the acute change in pot-PCI sST2 level and the severity of ischemia by Modified Gensini Score (MGS) will be evaluated. The final question that will be answered by this study does the rapid impact of PCI on sST2 level will be mainly related to the severity of ischemia rather than left ventricular function or not.

What participants receive

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

  • percutanous coronary angiography with stentingDevice

    Revascularization will be done by percutanous intervention after assessment of coronary stenosis by diagnostic coronary angiography under local anaesthesia with fluoroscopic guidance in acute/chronic coronary syndrome cases. The severity of stenosis will be done by modified gensini score from angiogram. An sST2 ELIZA test will be done after withdrawal of the cases' samples.

What is being measured

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

  1. sST2 biomarker level

    baseline comparison between ischemic heart disease and non-ischemic heart disease-control groups

    Measured: 24 hours before intervention

  2. sST2 biomarker level

    follow up of only ischemic heart disease groups of sST2 level changes after intervention

    Measured: 48 hours post percutanous coronary intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myocardial Ischemia and Heart Failure, run by Assiut University at 2 sites in Egypt.

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 17 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Egypt. 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 Alkhateeb (+201023858689, areejalkhateeb@med.svu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

sST2 biomarker level (time frame: 24 hours before intervention). 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?
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 17 Jan 2023.
