What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Composite Endpoint

    First event among cardiovascular death, hospitalisation for acute myocardial infarction (fatal or not), or hospitalisation for new onset or worsening heart failure (fatal or not).

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of the first occurrence of the first event, up to 3 years.

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Cardiovascular Death

    Cardiovascular death including sudden death of unknown cause

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to death, up to 3 years.

  2. Hospitalisation for Acute Myocardial Infarction

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the event, up to 3 years.

  3. Hospitalisation for New Onset or Worsening Heart Failure

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the event, up to 3 years.

  4. All-cause of Mortality

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to death, up to 3 years.

  5. Coronary Artery Disease Death

    Death due to heart failure, acute myocardial infarction or cardiac procedure

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to death, up to 3 years.

  6. Hospitalisation for Coronary Revascularisation

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the event, up to 3 years.

  7. Hospitalisation for Unstable Angina

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the event, up to 3 years.

  8. Hospitalisation for Acute Coronary Syndrome (Unstable Angina or Acute Myocardial Infarction)

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the first event, up to 3 years.

  9. Hospitalisation for Acute Coronary Syndrome, or Coronary Revascularisation

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the first event, up to 3 years.

  10. Hospitalisation for Acute Coronary Syndrome, New Onset or Worsening Heart Failure or Coronary Revascularisation

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the first event, up to 3 years.

  11. Cardiovascular Death, or Hospitalisation for New Onset or Worsening Heart Failure

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of first occurrence of the first event, up to 3 years.

  12. Cardiovascular Death, or Hospitalisation for Acute Myocardial Infarction

    Measured: From the date of randomisation to the date of the first occurrence of the first event, up to 3 years.

Individual data sharing
Yes: Researchers can ask for a study protocol, patient-level and/or study-level clinical trial data including clinical study reports (CSRs). They can ask all interventional clinical studies: * submitted for new medicines and new indications approved after 1 January 2014 in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United States (US). * Where Servier or an affiliate are the Marketing Authorization Holders (MAH). The date of the first Marketing Authorization of the new medicine (or the new indication) in one of the EEA Member States will be considered within this scope.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ivabradine in people with Coronary Disease and Ventricular Dysfunction, Left, run by Institut de Recherches Internationales Servier at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2018. 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 United Kingdom. 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. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Jun 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Composite Endpoint (time frame: From the date of randomisation to the date of the first occurrence of the first event, up to 3 years.). 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 NCT00143507, 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 12 Apr 2018.
