About this study

This study of physiologically functional FFR in STEMI patients without direct PCI treatment will provide unique data on plaque progression and risk factors.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter clinical study that plans to continuously enroll patients with STEMI who, for various reasons, have not received direct PCI treatment within 48 hours of symptom onset. All STEMI patients will be treated according to the hospital's standard procedures and will continue to watch for plaque stability for 7 to 30 days. Treatment options for STEMI include: progressive thrombus aspiration without balloon or stent implantation; Stabilization with medication in a relatively small hospital that could not provide PCI treatment and then transfer to a tertiary hospital for further evaluation; Thrombolytic therapy. After that, all patients underwent an angiogram to identify any residual stenosis in the culprit's blood vessels.

In this study, 300 subjects with target vessel stenosis of 50%-90% confirmed to be suitable for stent implantation by angiographic evaluation will be recruited and randomly assigned to FFR, OCT or Angio group according to 1:1:1. FFR group: Patients with FFR ≤0.8 were treated with PCI; FFR \&gt; 0.8 patients will receive drug therapy; All patients will undergo OCT examination. OCT group: if MLA\&lt; 4.5mm2 patients will receive PCI; Other patients will be treated with medication; All patients will be examined for FFR. Angio group: The appropriate treatment (stent implantation) will be given according to the evaluation of the doctor.

All patients were followed up at 1 month (±7d), 6 months (±14d) and 12 months (±30d) after surgery, respectively. Target lesion failure (TLF), including cardiogenic death, target vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI), or clinically indicated target lesion revascularization (TLR), was used as the primary end point. Secondary end points included the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at 1 year postoperatively. The clinical composite end points included: All due to death, Arc-defined stent thrombotic events, non-fatal myocardial infarction, clinically driven target vessel revascularization, or readmission due to unstable angina pectoris or aggravation of angina; Patients in the FFR group and OCT group were treated with a change of treatment strategy (pre-PCI: change of stent implantation strategy; After PCI: with or without additional intervention).

Each research center shall operate and test in accordance with the operating procedures uniformly described in the scheme to ensure the consistency of the test operation.

Clinical event committee (CEC) : a clinical event committee will be composed of independent cardiologists not involved in this study to reevaluate all reported deaths, myocardial infarction, revascularization, and thrombotic events.

A total of 300 STEMI patients who did not receive direct PCI treatment within 48 hours after symptom onset due to different reasons are planned to be enrolled in 16 centers nationwide. The overall study time is about 24 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Target lesion failure

    These include cardiogenic death, target vascular-associated myocardial infarction, and ischaemic driven revascularization of target lesions

    Measured: 1 year after baseline surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events

    All-cause death; ARC defined stent thrombosis events; This is a nonfatal myocardial infarction Anyway, a clinically-driven revascularization of a target blood vessel or hospital re-admission due to unstable angina or worsening angina

    Measured: 1 year after baseline surgery

  2. Incidence of changes in treatment strategy in FFR and OCT patients

    Change of stent implantation strategy before PCI and additional intervention or no additional intervention after PCI

    Measured: 1 year after baseline surgery

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?

Target lesion failure (time frame: 1 year after baseline surgery). 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 9 Aug 2021.
