About this study

Official title: Shensongyangxin Capsule in the Treatment of Sinus Bradycardia With Premature Ventricular Contractions Multi-center,Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Study

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of Chinese medicine Shansong Yangxin capsule for sinus bradycardia complicated with ventricular premature beats.

Read the detailed description

Premature ventricular contractions is one of the most common symptomatic arrhythmia. Antiarrhythmia drugs for premature ventricular contractions, such as beta-blockers and sodium channel blockers, can cause bradycardia. For sinus bradycardia patients complicated with premature ventricular contractions, it's hard for doctors to make decision. The purpose of the study is to assess the effects of Chinese medicine Shansong Yangxin capsule for sinus bradycardia complicated with ventricular premature beats, which based on the numbers of premature ventricular contractions and average hear rate in 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) after 8 weeks treatment as the primary endpoint of the study. Secondary endpoints are evaluation of the Shensong Yangxin capsule on quality of life. This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multi-center trial. Sinus bradycardia patients(average heart rate 45-59 beat per minute) associated with premature ventricular contractions (PVC number >10000 / 24h), are involved in the study. Patients are randomly assigned into Shensong Yangxin capsule group or placebo group, with the capsule administration of 4 granules t.i.d.for 8 weeks. 24-hour ambulatory ECG, are observed at baseline,4 weeks and 8 weeks after the intervention. The primary outcomes are the numbers of premature ventricular contractions and average heat rate in 24-hour ambulatory ECG, and the secondary outcomes is Minnesota living with heart failure questionnaire (MLHFQ).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Shensong Yangxin capsule in people with Premature Ventricular Contraction, run by kejiang Cao 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 3 inclusion and 6 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 17 Dec 2012. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

numbers of the Premature ventricular contractions detected by 24 houres ambulatory EKG (time frame: 8 weeks). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01750775, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2012.
