About this study

Official title: Changes of GALNT4 and the Relationship With PSGL-1on Monocytes and Hs-CRP in Blood of Patients With Coronary Heart Disease

The expression of GALNT4 in blood with acute coronary syndrome

Read the detailed description

Emerging evidences have linked GALNTs to cardiovascular disease or susceptibility to CAD.GALNT4, a member of the GalNAc-Ts family,contributes to the initiation of O-linked. Polymorphisms in GALNT4 have been linked with incidence of MI in an Irish population, probably that O-glycosylation of PSGL-1 by GalNAc-T4 may be important for many P-selectin mediated inflammation.However, there is few relevant studies about the expression of GALNT4 in patients with acute coronary syndrome.This study valuates the expression of GALNT4 in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

What participants receive

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

  • expression of GALNT4Diagnostic test

    Blood is obtained into ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid(EDTA) tubes from all subjects via antecubital venepuncture and the total RNA was extracted from blood.Realtime PCR was performed to measure the expression of GALNT4.

Study groups in NCT03335514
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
STEMIThe study population consists of 20 patients with ST-elevated acute myocardial infarction (STEMI,n = 20) who are admitted within 24 hours after chest pain attack. They will all undergo coronary angiography. The diagnosis is made according to American Heart Association (AHA, 2014 and 2015) guidelines. Patients who had autoimmune diseases, malignancies, chronic or acute infections, severe heart failure (NYHA class 3 and 4) and advanced liver or renal diseases are excluded.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: expression of GALNT4
NSTE-ACSThe study population consists of 30 patients with non-ST elevated acute myocardial infarction (NSTE-ACS,n=30) who are admitted within 24 hours after chest pain attack. They will all undergo coronary angiography. The diagnosis is made according to American Heart Association (AHA, 2014 and 2015) guidelines. Patients who had autoimmune diseases, malignancies, chronic or acute infections, severe heart failure (NYHA class 3 and 4) and advanced liver or renal diseases are excluded.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: expression of GALNT4
SAPThe study population consists of 30 patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP, n = 30). The diagnosis is made according to the criteria of the American Heart Association (AHA, 2014 and 2015). Patients who had autoimmune diseases, malignancies,chronic or acute infections, severe heart failure (NYHA class 3and 4) and advanced liver or renal diseases are excluded.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: expression of GALNT4
CONTROL20 age and body mass index matched healthy subjects with neither coronary artery disease nor any of the components of the metabolic syndrome are studied as Normal group
Receives: Diagnostic Test: expression of GALNT4

What is being measured

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

  1. the expression of GALNT4

    Realtime RCR measure the expression of galnt4 in peripheral blood

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. MACEs during 12-month follow-up

    All major adverse cardiac events( MACEs) including death, myocardial infarction, heart failure are recorded

    Measured: 12 months

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Mar 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 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. 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?

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?

the expression of GALNT4 (time frame: 12 months). 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 NCT03335514, which also lists 5 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 19 Mar 2019.
