Trial summary

Diagnostic purposes of the coronary angiography is to detect stenosis (anatomy) and to detect ischemia related stenosis (function). Coronary angiography (CAG) is a gold standard invasive techniques, but has several limitations. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) provides tomographic intra-luminal images. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Diagnostic Performances of the Computed Tomographic Coronary Angiography and IntraVascular UltraSound to Evaluate Ischemia Causing Coronary Artery Stenosis

Diagnostic purposes of the coronary angiography is to detect stenosis (anatomy) and to detect ischemia related stenosis (function). Coronary angiography (CAG) is a gold standard invasive techniques, but has several limitations. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) provides tomographic intra-luminal images. Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) is helpful to assess precise anatomical information. Optimal functional criteria and their accuracy of IVUS and CCTA by fraction flow reserve (FFR) have not been compared yet.

Read the detailed description

Correlation between CCTA, IVUS and FFR will be evaluated. The presence of myocardial ischemia will be assessed by fractional flow reserve (FFR).

Diagnostic performance (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive/negative predictive values and diagnostic accuracy) of each modality will be assessed and compared.

Being tested
diagnostic procedures CCTA, CAG, IVUS and FFR
Keywords
computed tomography, intravascular ultrasound, coronary stenosis, fractional flow reserve

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CCTA-IVUS-FFRPatients suspected ischemic heart disease by the symptom and CCTA and undergone IVUS and FFR in the Cath Lab with CAG enrolled consecutively.
Receives: Procedure: diagnostic procedures CCTA, CAG, IVUS and FFR

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic accuracy

    Evaluate and compare the diagnostic accuracy of the CCTA, IVUS and angiographic parameters for the prediction of myocardial ischemia (FFR<0.8)

    1. CCTA: % area stenosis
    2. IVUS: minimum lumen area
    3. Angiography: % diameter stenosis

    Diagnostic accuracy of each parameter: (true positive+true negative)/total cases

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diagnosis Coronary Artery Disease, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 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 24 Mar 2015. 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 South Korea. 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?

Diagnostic accuracy (time frame: 1 day). 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 NCT01400230, which also lists 4 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 24 Mar 2015.
