About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, tolerability, safety, and image quality of low-radiation, dynamic perfusion CT of the heart in patients with suspected ischemic chest pain and a moderate or severe stenosis seen on coronary CTA. Secondary aims include the assessment of the diagnostic accuracy of CT perfusion imaging compared to either SPECT or invasive angiography.

Study groups in NCT03103061
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Myocardial Stress CT PerfusionExperimentalLow-radiation, dynamic perfusion CT of the heart in patients with suspected ischemic chest pain and a moderate or severe stenosis seen on coronary CTA. Lexiscan(TM) will be used as the pharmacological stress agent (coronary vasodilator).
Receives: Drug: Lexiscan

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Treatment-related Adverse Events

    Demonstrate that CTA with stress and rest perfusion imaging using Lexiscan as the coronary vasodilator will be safe and well tolerated.

    This outcome measure data value represents the number of adverse events that occurred during this study.

    Measured: 30 days +/- 3 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Diagnostic Accuracy Using Quantitative Objective Image Quality Assessment

    Assess the diagnostic accuracy of CT perfusion imaging compared to either SPECT or invasive angiography.

    Measured: Immediately following CT perfusion imaging.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lexiscan in people with Cardiovascular Diseases and Coronary Artery Disease, run by Medical University of South Carolina 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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Aug 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Aug 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Treatment-related Adverse Events (time frame: 30 days +/- 3 days). 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 9 Aug 2019.
