NCT ID: NCT06166407 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Myocardial Infarction

Breisgau Pheno Heart Study

Start date: April 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Coronary heart disease and its acute complication, myocardial infarction (MI), represent the leading causes of death in Europe and the United States. Although novel treatment strategies have helped to improve survival in patients with MI, a large proportion of patients develops heart failure and is at risk of life-threatening arrhythmias. Complications arising after MI constitute a severe burden not only for the patients themselves, but also for health care systems worldwide. The likelihood of these complications depends on the area of myocardial tissue lost and the process of myocardial repair and scar tissue formation after MI ('remodeling') which are modified by the local and systemic immune response after MI. The immune response is critical after myocardial infarction. In particular, sustained overactive and prolonged inflammatory reactions lead to accentuated myocardial damage and dysfunction. Important mediators of the inflammatory reaction after MI are monocytes, T-cells, B-cells and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Following MI, myeloid cells derived from the hematopoietic system drive a sharp increase in systemic leukocyte levels that correlates closely with mortality. T- and B-cells in particular act in response to specific antigens. Most of the data regarding the inflammatory response after MI, however, are derived from animal models. The immunological phenotypes after MI and their association with clinical outcome in humans are insufficiently characterized. Aims: The aim of this project is to provide establish clinically and immunologically well-characterized cohort of patients after MI This will aid in identifying novel prognostic cellular and humoral biomarkers that may be used to identify patients at a high inflammatory and immune risk and to guide clinical management. Furthermore, these mediators, in the future, may be targeted by novel antigen-specific immunomodulatory approaches. Patients with myocardial infarction (STEMI and NSTEMI) will be recruited after PCI within 24h and receive a structured follow-up. Clinical read-outs include a detailed and standardized patient history, clinical examination, standard blood work, coronary angiography, ECG, echocardiography and for subgroups, MRI. Patients will present for study visits at 6 weeks, 3 months and 12 months after the initial event. Blood will be sampled at the inclusion and during follow-up visits. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells and plasma will be stored at the Cardiovascular BioBank (CVBB) and FREEZE, both institutions at the University Hospital in Freiburg. Major adverse cardiac events (myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for heart failure, cardiovascular death) will be recorded using telephone interviews and standardized queries to the local authorities. Several laboratory read-outs are planned including flow cytometry, mass cytometry, single cell RNA sequencing, T cell and B cell receptor sequencing and bulk-RNA-sequencing. In an initial approach we aim to recruit 400 patients with MI, of which we expect ≈40 to develop ischemic cardiomyopathy. Differences in immunological profiles between patients that develop MI and a propensity-matched control group will then be analyzed and correlated with clinical outcome data.

Deploying Novel Imaging Modalities Towards a Three-dimensional (3D) CARDIOvascular PATHology

3D-CARDIOPATH
Start date: September 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of the 3D-CARDIOPATH study is to investigate the potential added value of emerging 3D imaging modalities by imaging ex vivo cardiac specimens (diseased coronary arteries, calcific aortic valves, and thrombotic materials) in 3D. Specifically, 20 cadaveric coronary artery segments with advanced atherosclerosis will be received from 10 patients with SCD. These segments will first be scanned with intravascular imaging modalities, namely optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and then with micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM). Additionally, 30 thrombotic specimens aspirated from patients with ST-elevated myocardial infarction, will also be scanned using micro-CT. Finally, 30 surgically removed aortic valves will undergo scanning with micro-CT and LSFM. Traditional histopathological assessment will also be performed on the scanned specimens. Patient laboratory profiles, past medical histories, demographic characteristics, and therapeutic management will be recorded, where applicable.

Intravascular ULTRAsound-Guided PCI in Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction

ULTRA-STEMI
Start date: October 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The main goal of the ULTRA-STEMI trial is to investigate the prognostic impact of IVUS-guided PCI in patients with STEMI and correlate IVUS measurements with clinical, procedural, imaging and follow-up outcomes of interest. Study participants will undergo primary PCI as per standardized procedures; IVUS will be performed at baseline, post-intervention and post-optimization. Manual thrombus aspiration will be performed according to clinical indications. The aspirated thrombi will be collected and scanned with micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Also, angiographic and peri-procedural data will be gathered. Post-PCI instantaneous wave-free ratio (IFR) will also be performed to assess the severity of the residual coronary-artery stenosis, if any. All patients will be followed up for at least12 months for the adjudication of major adverse cardiovascular events.

The Safety and Long-Term Clinical Benefit of PCSK9i in STEMI Patients

Start date: November 1, 2022
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) have an increased risk of recurrent ischemic events, particularly during the first year following the index event, which is mainly due to unattended risk factors and/ or poor compliance with medications. Lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), with a magnitude of clinical benefit that is proportional to the reduction in LDL-C levels. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/ kexin type 9 (PCSK9) antibodies have emerged as a new class of drugs that rapidly and effectively lower LDL-C levels up to 77 % of the original value in combination with statins. The primary objective of this study is to confirm the safety and the long-term clinical benefit associated with the use of PCSK9i when combined with statin in patients with ACS-STEMI. The study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, open label study that will be the first study looking for the safety and the clinical benefit and outcome associated with the use of PCSK9i in ACS-STEMI patients specifically. Internationally, this will be the first trial studying the effect of PCSK9i on patients with acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) in terms of reduction in cholesterol level and reduction in cardiac events rate (re-infarction and cardiac death) after myocardial infarction. This trial will have a significant impact in the management of patients with STEMI, locally and internationally and it will be conducted purely in Qatar. This trial will help to improve the clinical outcome of patients in Qatar in terms of reduction of myocardial reinfarction rate and mortality.

Upfront Premedication For Reduction of Microvascular Obstruction and No-reflow in Treating ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

UPFRONT-STEMI
Start date: January 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Angiographic no-reflow during primary PCI procedures occurs at relatively high rate (25%) and is associated with worsening of long term morbidity and mortality. The exact mechanism of no-reflow is not fully understood, yet it is believed to be multifactorial including microvascular plugging with activated platelets and thrombotic debris in addition to the microvascular dysfunction from the ischaemia-reperfusion injury. Despite a theoretical advantage of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors (GPi) (like; Tirofiban) to suppress the intense platelets' activation/reaction; their use did not lead to a significant net benefit, because it was opposed by increased risk of bleeding. However, the bleeding that plagued GPi use was predominantly related to vascular access in the era femoral approach was the default. Moreover, there are some recent data suggesting that small intracoronary bolus of GPi was non-inferior to intravenous bolus-infusion dose with less bleeding events. This study plans to assess upfront premedication with small doses of GPi + Nitroglycerin ± Verapamil, with staged restoration of flow (repeated balloon inflation) to reduce angiographic no-reflow and CMR assessed microvascular occlusion (MVO).
