About this study

Official title: The First Experience With Using a One-dimensional Mathematical Model With Fully Automated Algorithm of Extraction of Patient-specific Geometry From CT Images for a Noninvasive Assessment of Fractional Flow Reserve.

This study evaluates the diagnostic efficiency of an automated method of noninvasive assessment of the fractional reserve of coronary blood flow.

Fractional flow reserve is estimated with a one-dimensional mathematical model constructed by means of an automated algorithm. Noninvasive method values are thereafter compared with invasive method values.

Read the detailed description

Noninvasive assessment of Fractional Flow Reserve is almost never applied in the Russian Federation due to the relative novelty and study insufficiency, lack of the appropriate resource base, specific necessary software and trained qualified personnel.

In 2015, scientists from the Institute of Numerical Mathematics RAS in collaboration with specialists of the I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University developed a noninvasive method of fractional flow reserve assessment based on a one-dimensional mathematical model. A model is constructed based on images derived from the coronary computed tomography angiography performed by standard protocol; the method is fully automated.

The aim of our study is to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of this technique in clinical practice.

This is a pilot study; we are planning to enroll 30 patients: 13 of them underwent 64-slice computed tomography and are included retrospectively; 17 will be included prospectively, with a 640-slice CT scan. Specialists from the Laboratory of Mathematical Modeling will process CT images and evaluate noninvasive FFR. Ischemia is confirmed if FFR < 0.80 and disproved if FFR ≥ 0.80. After that, the prospective group of patients will be hospitalized for invasive FFR assessment as a reference standard; if ischemia is proved, patients will undergo stent implantation. In the retrospective group, patients already have invasive FFR values estimated.

Statistical analysis will be performed using R programming language packages (cran-r.project.com). Continuous variables will be presented as mean values ± standard deviations, order variables will be presented as medians with interquartile ranges in parentheses. We are going to use the D'Agostino-Pearson omnibus test for the assessment of normality of distribution and construct a Q-Q Plot. We will compare these two methods with the Bland-Altman analysis and ROC-analysis and will assess the degree of correlation with the Pearson's chi-squared.

The study should result in determining the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of the method.

After the active phase of the research is done, we are planning to proceed observation on the prospective group of patients to verify the endpoints.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FFR in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University at 1 site in Russia.

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 4 inclusion and 17 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 18 May 2020. 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 Russia. 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?

Diagnostic Accuracy of FFRct (time frame: through study completion, an average of 8 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 NCT03797118, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 May 2020.
