Trial summary

Until very recently, warfarin is still the best drug of choice for long-term anticoagulation for patients with mechanical prosthetic heart valve. However, the complication of warfarin account for 75 percent of the whole complication after the mechanical prosthetic heart valve replacement. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Academic Leader,Head of Cardiac Surgery,Principal Investigator, Clinical Professor

Until very recently, warfarin is still the best drug of choice for long-term anticoagulation for patients with mechanical prosthetic heart valve. However, the complication of warfarin account for 75 percent of the whole complication after the mechanical prosthetic heart valve replacement.

Interindividual variation in warfarin dose is mediated by multiple factors.Advanced models using combinations of clinical attributes and genetic factors(CYP2C9, VKORC1, and CYP4F2) explain 50-75% of variability in warfarin dose requirements.These warfarin dosing models have the potential to improve patient safety by reducing or eliminating serious adverse events. The investigators conducted a prospective, randomized, blinded, two arm trial to test this hypothesis.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Genotype-based Warfarin Initiation modelOther

    Based on previous retrospective study,investigators established a genotype-based warfarin model to estimate the drug dosage.

  • clinical factor-based warfarin initiation modelOther

    Based on previous retrospective study,investigators established a clinical factor-based warfarin model to estimate the drug dosage.

    Measured: from five days after the operation to thirty days after the operation

  2. the ratio of INR≥3.0 and INR≤1.5

    Measured: from five days after the operation to thirty days after the operation

  3. the monitoring frequency of INR

    Measured: 30 days after the operation

  4. the whole-cause mortality

    Measured: 30 days after the operation

  5. major bleeding event

    Measured: 30 days after the operation

  6. major thrombosis rate

    Measured: 30 days after the operation

  7. absolute difference between the stable dose and initial dose

    Measured: 30 days after the operation

  8. the frequency of dosage change

    Measured: 30 days after the operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Genotype-based Warfarin Initiation model and clinical factor-based warfarin initiation model in people with Anticoagulation Treatment Overdose and Heart Valve Diseases, run by Xi Zhang at 1 site in China.

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 20 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jul 2016. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xi Zhang, MD. (86-13902279690, zhangxisysu@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

time to steady dosage (time frame: from seven days after the operation to thirty days after the operation). 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 25 Jul 2016.
