Trial summary

This study aims to investigate whether DCB angioplasty, compared to statin-based medical treatment alone, will lead to more reduction in plaque lipid burden as assessed by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) at 6-9 months following the index procedure. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Drug-Coated Balloon Angioplasty Facilitates Rapid Reduction in Plaque Lipid Burden in Patients with Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease: a Serial NIRS-IVUS Imaging Study

This study aims to investigate whether DCB angioplasty, compared to statin-based medical treatment alone, will lead to more reduction in plaque lipid burden as assessed by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) at 6-9 months following the index procedure.

Read the detailed description

A large lipid core is the hallmark of coronary plaques at risk of rupture and subsequent atherothrombosis. Although statin-based medical treatment is known to regress and stabilize lipid-rich coronary plaques, it takes time for such beneficial effects to appear. This study aims to investigate whether DCB angioplasty can effectively modify de novo coronary atherosclerotic plaque and lead to reduction in plaque lipid burden as assessed by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) at 6-9 months following the index procedure.

What participants receive

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

  • SeQuent Please NeoDevice

    DCB angioplasty will be performed in accordance with the recent recommendations. Specifically, aggressive lesion predilation (balloon-to-artery ratio: 0.8 to 1.2) using either a plain balloon or a scoring balloon will be performed.

Study groups in NCT05438121
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with multivessel CAD undergoing DCB PCII. Patients with significant multi-vessel coronary artery disease will be screened. II. If the patient is found to have at least one lipid-rich plaque (LRP, LCBI>250) requiring revascularization (DS>70%) will undergo multi-vessel IVUS-NIRS imaging. III. If multi-vessel NIRS screening revealed another LRP (LCBI>250) with DS<70%, the patient will be enrolled. IV. The stenotic LRP lesion (DS>70%) will be subjected to DCB angioplasty while non-stenotic LRP lesion (DS<70%) will be left unintervened and treated medically. V. Comparative lesions: 1. DCB-treated LRP (DS>70%, maxLCBI>250) 2. Unintervened, medically-treated LRP (DS<70%, maxLCBI>250)

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference of serially-assessed lipid core burden index (LCBI) change between DCB-treated lesion vs. medically-treated lesion

    ΔLCBI: NIRS-assessed changes in LCBI between baseline and follow-up.

    Measured: 6~9 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Difference of serially-assessed plaque burden change between DCB-treated lesion vs. medically-treated lesion.

    ΔPlaque burden: IVUS-assessed changes in plaque burden between baseline and follow-up.

    Measured: 6~9 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Atherosclerotic Plaque, run by Korea University Ansan Hospital 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 4 inclusion and 6 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 15 Oct 2024. 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?

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 Sunwon Kim, MD, PhD (82-31-8099-6349, sunwon11@hanmail.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference of serially-assessed lipid core burden index (LCBI) change between DCB-treated lesion vs. medically-treated lesion (time frame: 6~9 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 NCT05438121, which also lists 3 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 15 Oct 2024.
