Trial summary

Following successful CTO PCI, a multitude of physiological and anatomical changes take place. Contemporary techniques such as dissection/re-entry or lumen-lumen wiring may influence the immediate and longer term follow up of these features. Read more about this study

About this study

Following successful CTO PCI, a multitude of physiological and anatomical changes take place. Contemporary techniques such as dissection/re-entry or lumen-lumen wiring may influence the immediate and longer term follow up of these features. It is not known whether changes in this level of physiology and anatomy in the context of CTO vessels correlate with each other, or with quality of life and exercise capacity.

This study aims to take physiological measurements of absolute coronary flow, resistance and pressure and intra-coronary imaging immediately after successful CTO PCI. The investigators will relate these to each other and to the method of revascularisation, comparing changes in these groups at three months follow up.

QoL measurements, and exercise testing will be carried out to see if there is a relationship between physiological and anatomical changes with exercise capacity and quality of life.

Results from this study could shed light on optimisation of CTO PCI procedural and clinical outcomes.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT03830853
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Successful CTO PCI achievedPatients will have successful CTO PCI (chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention) followed by physiological and intracoronary imaging. These measurements will be repeated at a 3 month follow up angiogram procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in coronary flow

    change in coronary flow at baseline and follow up

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Change in coronary resistance

    change in coronary absolute resistance at baseline and follow up

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in coronary anatomy

    To identify intracoronary anatomical features between baseline and follow up.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Change in exercise work load

    Change in exercise work measured in METS (metabolic equivalents).

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Change in quality of life

    change in quality measured by the validated Seattle angina seven question questionnaire from baseline to follow up. This is a scale based on 7 questions giving scores of 0-100 on physical limitation, angina, and quality of life, with the average of these scores giving a mean value also ranging from 0-100 of the overall summary score.

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Change in coronary pressure measurements

    change in fractional flow reserve (FFR) at baseline and follow up

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Total Occlusion of Coronary Artery, run by Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 3 inclusion and 7 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 21 Dec 2021. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Change in coronary flow (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Dec 2021.
