About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Double Blind, Crossover, Placebo-Controlled, Dual-Injection, Safety and Pharmacokinetic Study of AI-700 in Patients With Diminished DLCO and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and/or Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)

This study was conducted to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of an echocardiographic contrast agent, AI-700, in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and/or congestive heart failure (CHF).

Read the detailed description

In ongoing clinical trials, AI-700 is currently being evaluated for its value to provide enhanced echocardiography to detect CAD. The patient population is comprised of those patients who have chest pain and are being evaluated for inducible ischemia. This population may include patients with compromised pulmonary function due to COPD or CHF. This study was to evaluate the safety of AI-700 in these patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AI-700 in people with Congestive Heart Failure and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Acusphere at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2006. 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 States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

To determine the safety of AI-700 in patients with diminished pulmonary diffusing capacity (DLCO) and moderate or severe COPD and/or CHF. 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 23 Oct 2006.
