About this study
Official title: Role of Innate and Adaptive Immunity After Acute Myocardial Infarction BATTLE-AMI Study (B And T Types of Lymphocytes Evaluation in Acute Myocardial Infarction)
The fascinating role of lymphocyte subtypes in the development of coronary artery disease may be a new strategic target for understanding and therapy of acute myocardial infarction. The determinants of cell viability are unknown, postulating that they arise from factors not only related to microcirculation or energy expenditure, but also to inflammatory and immune responses. Furthermore, the intense mobilization of progenitor cells secondary to myocardial infarction triggers large lymphocyte proliferation that colonizes plaques in development, contributing to recurrent ischemic outcomes. This project aims to evaluate the immune and metabolic mechanisms involved in the recovery of the ischemic myocardium and coronary disease progression.
Read the detailed description
Specifically, the investigators will study the innate and adaptive immunity, with emphasis on lymphocytes subtypes involved in the early and late surrogate outcomes of patients with acute myocardial infarction, their characterization (B1, B2 and T lymphocytes) in cell culture and by flow-cytometry, and immune responses (IgM and IgG for oxLDL and specific epitopes of apoB). In addition, the project will evaluate new biomarkers identified by studies of metabolomics, as well as the corresponding signaling pathways. Therapeutic pharmacological strategies and changes on intestinal microbiota will be evaluated since the acute phase of myocardial infarction up to 6 months.
In the study, the investigators will compared four arms of combined therapy: clopidogrel with rosuvastatin; or clopidogrel with simvastatin; or ticagrelor with rosuvastatin; or ticagrelor with simvastatin. The investigator's hypothesis is that the improvement of microcirculation with rosuvastatin and ticagrelor (synergic pleiotropic effects) may decrease the infarcted mass area, resulting in better left ventricular ejection fraction when compared to the other combined therapies.
The monitoring and genotype of microbiota will be examined together the metabolomics and cardiac MRIs obtained at the acute phase of MI and after 1-mo and 6-mo FU.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Rosuvastatin plus clopidogrel, Rosuvastatin plus ticagrelor and Simvastatin plus clopidogrel in people with Myocardial Fibrosis, run by Federal University of São Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.
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 3 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 11 Jun 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 Brazil. 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.
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?
Contact Francisco A Fonseca, MD, PhD (+55 11 992639082, fahfonseca@terra.com.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Comparison of the left ventricular function (MRI) between the four combined treatments, after STEMI (time frame: 1-mo). 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 NCT02428374, which also lists 120 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 11 Jun 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
