Trial summary

The investigators sought to assess whether plasma myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels differ among patients with stable and unstable CAD patients and control subjects, and correlate with inflammatory and clinical risk factors such as ox-LDL, NO,leptin, adiponectin, sPLA2, Lp-PLA2, homocysteine and 3-nitrotyrosine in the… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Association Between Myeloperoxidase Levels and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

The investigators sought to assess whether plasma myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels differ among patients with stable and unstable CAD patients and control subjects, and correlate with inflammatory and clinical risk factors such as ox-LDL, NO,leptin, adiponectin, sPLA2, Lp-PLA2, homocysteine and 3-nitrotyrosine in the patients.

Read the detailed description

Elevation of the leukocyte enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) in stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients in contrast to unstable CAD patients is controversial and its relationship with some inflammatory and noninflammatory markers such as oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) and nitric oxide (NO) in the CAD patients has not been evaluated yet. Evaluation of these relationships is the aim of the study.Also the relationships between MPO and some other inflammatory biomarker such as leptin, adiponectin, sPLA2, Lp-PLA2, homocysteine and 3-nitrotyrosine are examined. This study includes 50 stable CAD, 50 unstable CAD patients and 50 controls. Plasma MPO, ox-LDL, leptin, adiponectin, sPLA2 levels are determined using enzyme immunoassay.Homocysteine and 3-nitrotyrosine are measured using HPLC-fluorescence method. Plasma total NO and other risk factors such as lipid profile, hypertension, smoking, diabetes mellitus and familial history of CAD are also determined in the patients. Results are statistically analysed and the association between all markers are assessed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Isfahan University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 7 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 22 Dec 2010. 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 Iran. 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?

Plasma myeloperoxidase levels (time frame: 3 month). 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 22 Dec 2010.
