Trial summary

This is a retrospective study, designed to be conducted at a single-center in the US. The study will conduct a one-time data abstraction from approximately 500 patient medical charts who received Age/Sex/Gene Expression score (ASGES) also knows as Corus CAD testing, by order of the Principal Investigator.

About this study

Official title: Clinical Utility of an Age, Sex and Gene Expression Score (ASGES or Corus CAD) in the Diagnostic Management of Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease in African American Patients in a Primary Care Setting

This is a retrospective study, designed to be conducted at a single-center in the US. The study will conduct a one-time data abstraction from approximately 500 patient medical charts who received Age/Sex/Gene Expression score (ASGES) also knows as Corus CAD testing, by order of the Principal Investigator. Limited demographic data and patient data pertaining to cardiology referral or advanced diagnostic testing will be collected. All data will be collected anonymously.

Read the detailed description

Though the diagnostic properties of Age/Sex/Gene Expression Score (ASGES) or Corus CAD have been evaluated in previous observational studies, there are limited data regarding how primary care clinicians are using the results of the test in the care and management of patients with symptoms suggestive of angina in the African-America patient population. This retrospective study is designed to examine the relationship between the Corus CAD (ASGES) score and patterns of care regarding cardiology referral or further cardiac diagnostic testing in an African-American patient population single-center site.

This is a retrospective study, designed to be conducted at a single-center in the US. The study will conduct a one-time data abstraction from approximately 500 patient medical charts who received Corus CAD (ASGES) testing, by order of the Principal Investigator. Limited demographic data and patient data pertaining to cardiology referral or advanced diagnostic testing will be collected. All data will be collected anonymously. IRB approval will be requested with a waiver of informed consent, as no identifying information will be collected.

This retrospective study is designed to understand the patterns of care, including referrals for cardiac care and testing (including referrals to a cardiologist, exercise stress testing, cardiac computerized tomography angiography (CCTA), invasive cardiac angiography (ICA)) within an African-American patient population.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Angina Pectoris, run by CardioDx at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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 31 Jan 2019. 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 United States. 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?

Referral rate of patients receiving Age/Sex/Gene Expression Score (ASGES) or Corus CAD (time frame: Expected follow-up up to 1 year after receiving Corus CAD testing). 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 31 Jan 2019.
