About this study

Official title: Olmesartan Effect on Myocardial Viability of Patients With Dilated Cardiomyopathy

The study proceeds with prospective, randomized, open and controlled clinical trials. The subject of the investigator's study was the first patient diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy. Subjects who agreed to participate in the study and were determined to meet the selection / exclusion criteria were randomly assigned to each group, and the experimental group was treated with 20 mg of olmesartan and 5 mg of rosuvastatin for 6 months, and the control group is treated with 40 mg of valsartan and 5 mg of rosuvastatin.

Read the detailed description

Myocardial viability plays an important role in improving the function of the heart. To date, the most reproducible and objective method has been established as a method or tool for assessing myocardial viability.

Olmesartan is known to have the strongest inhibitory ability of angiotensin receptors compared with other angiotensin receptor binding inhibitors. Research has been reported that statin drugs may help improve vascular endothelial function, and several researchers have suggested that these mechanisms may affect the improvement of myocardial survival. In addition, studies have shown that angiotensin receptor binding inhibitors and statins may improve left ventricular function in patients with left ventricular function. However, since the studies did not assess myocardial survival, the mechanisms could not be clearly identified.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of olmesartan on myocardial survival in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy who have left ventricular dysfunction.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FDG PET in people with Dilated Cardiomyopathy, run by Dong-A University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Kyung-Mi Ko (82-51-240-5740, kkmcrc@naver.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of glucose metabolism (time frame: 6 month). 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 NCT04174456, which also lists 2 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 26 Aug 2020.
