A Randomized Trial of Intracoronary Reopro to Improve Coronary Microvascular Function

A study testing Abciximab in people with Myocardial Infarction and Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Melbourne at 1 site in Australia.

Trial summary

Microvascular dysfunction is a key determinant of pathogenesis and outcome in patients suffering an acute myocardial infarction. The investigators hypothesise that treatment with intracoronary abciximab, a potent anti platelet agent, at the time of coronary stent insertion, will improve microvascular function.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Control Trial of Intracoronary Reopro to Improve Coronary Microvascular Function

Microvascular dysfunction is a key determinant of pathogenesis and outcome in patients suffering an acute myocardial infarction.

The investigators hypothesise that treatment with intracoronary abciximab, a potent anti platelet agent, at the time of coronary stent insertion, will improve microvascular function.

Read the detailed description

The index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), an invasive measure of coronary microvascular function, correlates with clinical outcomes in patients with stable angina and ST elevation myocardial infarction. The glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor, abciximab, improves coronary microvascular function and reduces major cardiac adverse events in patients with acute coronary syndromes. This study will investigate whether an intracoronary bolus of abciximab in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction decreases IMR and improves microvascular function.

What participants receive

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

  • AbciximabDrug

    Also called Reopro

    This drug will be administered intracoronary before percutaneous coronary intervention.

What is being measured

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

  1. Index of Microvascular Resistance

    We will assess IMR in the catheterisation laboratory immediately before PCI, then intracoronary reopro or placebo will be administered and we will re-assess IMR 15 minutes post delivery of the study drug. Finally we will perform PCI and immediately measure IMR post-procedure.

    Measured: within 3 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of periprocedural myocardial infarction

    We will assess for periprocedural myocardial infarction 8 to 24 hours post PCI

    Measured: within 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Abciximab in people with Myocardial Infarction and Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Melbourne at 1 site in Australia.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 7 Apr 2014. 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 Australia. 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.

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?

Index of Microvascular Resistance (time frame: within 3 hours). 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 7 Apr 2014.
