About this study

Official title: The Role of Platelet Surface α2β1 Integrin Expression as a Risk Factor in Thrombotic and/or Bleeding Complications in Patients Undergoing Invasive Procedures in the Hybrid Cardiac Catheterization/Cardiac Surgery Suite

This study will begin to define these critical determinants for patients undergoing procedures in the hybrid interventional cardiology/cardiac surgery suite. In future studies, the data obtained from this study will be used to prospectively stratify patients in terms of bleeding verses thrombotic risk to design studies to optimize anticoagulation and anti-platelet therapies in the hybrid setting.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to test the association of DNA polymorphisms linked to the level of αβ1 integrin expression on platelets with clinical outcome in terms of bleeding or thrombotic complications. The association of polymorphisms in other genes such as GPVI, PAR-1, and COX-2, as well as PLA ½ status, will also be examined and considered in the context of other factors such as medications including IIb/IIIa inhibitors, anticoagulants, type of procedure, obesity smoking status, etc.

Lower levels of platelet surface expression of the α2β1 integrin are associated with an increased risk of bleeding complications following hybrid procedures, especially when the low level of integrin expression is associated with other risk factors that may exacerbate bleeding such as vigorous anti-coagulation, aggressive anti-platelet therapy and other genetic risk factors that contribute to a hemorrhagic phenotype. Conversely, higher level expression of the α2β1 integrin is likely associated with a greater tendency to thrombotic complication that is again modified by other coexisting risk factors.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Genetic Polymorphism, run by Vanderbilt University at 1 site in United States.

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 0 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 17 Dec 2013. 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.

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?

genetic determination of bleeding verses thrombotic risk factors in patients undergoing cardiovascular procedures. 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 Dec 2013.
