Arterial Stiffness Clinical Trial
— LOVE-COARCTOfficial title:
LOVE-COARCT Study: Long-term Outcomes and Vascular Evaluation After Coarctation of the Aorta Treatment
Background: Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) can be treated using surgery, balloon angioplasty or stent implantation. Although short-term results are excellent with all three treatment modalities, long term cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality remain high, likely due to persistently abnormal vascular function. The effects of treatment modality on long term vascular function remain uncharacterized. The goal of this study is to assess vascular function in this patient population for comparison among the treatment modalities. Methods: Vascular function in large and small arteries will be prospectively assessed fusing multiple non-invasive modalities, and the results will be compared among the three groups of CoA patients previously treated using surgery, balloon angioplasty or stent implantation after frequency matching for confounding variables. A comprehensive vascular function assessment protocol was created to be used in 7 centers. The primary outcome is arterial stiffness measured by arterial tonometry. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were carefully established after consideration of several potential confounders. Sample size was calculated for the primary outcome variable. Conclusions: Treatment modalities for CoA may have distinct impact on large and small arterial vascular function. The results of this study will help identify the treatment modality that is associated with the most optimal level of vascular function, which, in the long term may reduce CV risk.

Inclusion Criteria: - Diagnosis of isthmic coarctation of the aorta; - Current age between 8 (to allow cooperation with study procedures) and 35 years (to avoid confounding by aging-related vascular dysfunction); and - Treatment for CoA after 1994, after which all three modalities were in clinical use. Exclusion Criteria: - Residual CoA defined by a systolic upper-to-lower extremity BP gradient> 20mmHg; - Co-morbidities that may independently affect vascular function, including associated significant congenital heart disease, history of known vasculopathy, genetic syndromes or other cardiovascular risk factors; - History of two treatment types for CoA; and - CoA types likely representing a different entity or patients amenable to one single treatment type (surgery), including atypical CoA site (such as mid-thoracic or abdominal), severe hypoplasia of the aortic arch, and an age of treatment <1 year of age. |
