Trial summary

Registration of all ACS patients (STEMI and NSTEMI) admitted to the cardiology ward and scheduled for early invasive strategy. The aim is to evaluate the protective effects of early (on admission) high-dose high-potency statin therapy on early and mid-term cardiac and renal events in this subset of patients.

About this study

Official title: The Protective Effect of Early High Dose High-intensity Statins on Cardiovascular and Renal Events in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Registration of all ACS patients (STEMI and NSTEMI) admitted to the cardiology ward and scheduled for early invasive strategy. The aim is to evaluate the protective effects of early (on admission) high-dose high-potency statin therapy on early and mid-term cardiac and renal events in this subset of patients.

Read the detailed description

Statin-naive patients and those on statin therapy with ACS who are admitted to the cardiology ward of our public (National Health Service) hospital and are scheduled for early invasive strategy receive immediately on admission, always before angiographic procedure, high-dose statin therapy. Either atorvastatin 80 mg or rosuvastatin 40 mg is administered at the discretion of the physician. During hospitalization various pertinent cardiac and renal parameters, including hematological, angiographic, clinical data are registered in a dedicated database. Clinical follow-up and hematological analysis are done 1 month after discharge. A second follow-up, either clinical or by telephone, is done 1 year after discharge.

What is being measured

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

  1. Acute renal function changes

    Changes in creatinine and/or cystatine values

    Measured: Within 72 hours after hospital admission

  2. Inflammatory profile changes

    Changes from baseline in CRP values

    Measured: up to 1 month

  3. Lipid profile changes

    Changes from baseline in cholesterol values

    Measured: up to 1 month

  4. Platelet count

    Changes from baseline in platelet count

    Measured: up to 1 month

  5. Platelet volume

    Changes from baseline in platelet volume

    Measured: up to 1 month

  6. Platelet aggregation profile

    Changes from baseline in platelet reactivity (Verify Now)

    Measured: up to 1 month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Major cardiovascular adverse events

    Death, myocardial infarction, stroke or coronary revascularization

    Measured: up to 12 months

  2. Renal function changes

    glomerular filtration rate

    Measured: Changes from baseline at 1 month

  3. Major adverse cardiovascular and renal adverse events

    Death, myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization or glomerular filtration rate reduction > = 25% compared to baseline

    Measured: up to 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Centro Cardiopatici Toscani at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Sep 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 Italy. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Anna Toso, MD (00393387982507, anna.toso@libero.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Acute renal function changes (time frame: Within 72 hours after hospital admission). The study lists 6 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 12 Sep 2019.
