Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Iodixanol 320 is associated with a lower incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) when compared with hyperosmolar contrast medium Iomeprol 350 in patients with impaired renal function undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).

About this study

Official title: Prospective, Randomized, Comparative Study to Evaluate the Effect of Iodixanol 320 Compared to Iomeprol 350 on Contrast Medium Induced Nephropathy in Patients With Impaired Renal Function Undergoing PCI

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Iodixanol 320 is associated with a lower incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) when compared with hyperosmolar contrast medium Iomeprol 350 in patients with impaired renal function undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).

Read the detailed description

Iodixanol, an iso-osmolar, dimeric, non-ionic contrast agent has been shown to reduce the risk of developing CIN in patients with elevated serum creatinine concentrations compared to low-osmolar contrast agents. However, no information is available about a potential protective effect of Iodixanol in patients with impaired renal function on CIN when used during PCI. Due to the high volume of contrast exposition, patients with impaired renal function are at increased risk for the development of CIN compared to patients with normal excretory renal function.

The purpose of the investigation is to determine the changes of renal function in patients with impaired renal function receiving Iodixanol 320 or Iomeprol 350 for percutaneous coronary intervention.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Iodixanol 320 and Iomeprol 350 in people with Renal Insufficiency, Chronic and Angioplasty, Transluminal, Percutaneous Coronary, run by Deutsches Herzzentrum Muenchen at 2 sites in Germany.

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 9 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 15 Mar 2010. 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 Germany. 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 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?

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?

Contrast-induced nephropathy after percutaneous coronary intervention during primary hospitalization (time frame: primary hospitalization). 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 NCT00390585, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 15 Mar 2010.
