In a prospective international multicenter observational study, 1080 stable chest pain patients (REALITY Advanced registry of CCTA patients) with the suspected chronic coronary syndrome will be enrolled. All of them will undergo computed tomography angiography, CMR and/ or SPECT, and Echo. One of the cohorts will be examined with multimodality invasive imaging including quantitative coronary angiography, FFR, QFR with or without further percutaneous coronary intervention, OCT, and some of them - with IVUS, VH-IVUS. The plaque size and relevant stenosis, a composition of the atherosclerotic lesion, major adverse cardiovascular events (all-cause death, death from cardiac causes, myocardial infarction, or rehospitalization due to unstable or progressive angina, ischemia-driven revascularization) will be judged to be related to either originally treated (culprit) lesions or untreated (non-culprit) lesions. Moreover, the clinical potential of both non-invasive and invasive imaging, as well as anatomical vs functional modalities in two real-world patient flows, will be estimated with the special focus on the natural progression of atherosclerosis, clinical outcomes, and safety (contrast-induced nephropathy, radiocontrast-induced thyroid dysfunction, and radiation dose). The diagnostic accuracy will be analyzed. The follow-up period will achieve 12 months prospectively with collected clinical events and imaging outcomes which will be determined at the baseline and 12-month follow-up. The independent ethics expertise will be provided by the Ural State Medical University (Yekaterinburg, Russia) and Central Clinical Hospital of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow, Russia). The monitoring of the clinical data with imaging as well as further CoreLab expertise (expert-level post-processing multimodal imaging software of Medis Imaging B.V., Leiden, The Netherlands) will be provided by De Haar Research Task Force, Amsterdam-Rotterdam, the Netherlands. FFR-CT is scheduled to be assessed by the ElucidVivo Research Edition software from Elucid Bio, Boston, MA, U.S.A. The REALITY project is a part of the JHWH (Jahweh) International Advanced Cardiovascular Imaging Consortium. The main objective of the Consortium that is uniting international efforts of both Academia and Industry is a synergistic development of the advanced machine-learning imaging software in order to integrate benefits of both non-invasive and invasive imaging providing the daily clinical practice with the robust tool for the anatomical and functional examination of coronary atherosclerosis, PCI-related arterial remodeling, and relevant myocardial function.
This will be a randomized prospective dose escalation clinical study of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) in patients with stage 3 or worse renal failure (Glomerular Filtration Rate 30-60 ml/min calculated with the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula), undergoing a procedure or imaging that requires the administration of contrast media at Oregon Health & Science University or the Portland Veterans Hospital. Subjects will receive NAC 60 minutes prior to the procedure or imaging requiring contrast media. Toxicity will be graded according to NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC) version 3.0. An adult Phase 1 dose escalation study of NAC administered intravenously (IV) and intra-arterially (IA) will be performed. An isotonic nonionic contrast agent will be used in all cases. Contrast Induced Nephropathy (CIN) is defined as an increase in serum creatinine concentration of 25% or more from the subjects baseline value within a 72-hour period after the administration of contrast media. Serum creatinine concentration will be measured at admission, every day during in-patient hospitalization, and at hospital discharge.
Preliminary studies have shown a benefit of sodium bicarbonate infusion in decreasing the risk of contrast induced nephropathy with coronary angiography. The investigators plan to randomize 478 patients (with serum creatinine 1.5 mg/dl or greater) undergoing coronary angiography to intravenous isotonic saline or intravenous isotonic sodium bicarbonate beginning one hour before the procedure and for four hours after. The primary endpoint is the development of contrast nephropathy within 48-72 hours after the procedure. Patients with an ejection fraction <30%, overt CHF, hypokalemia and alkalemia will be excluded.
Full Title: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Procrit for the Prevention of Acute Renal Failure in Patients Receiving Intravenous Contrast Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of a one-time dose of intravenous erythropoietin administration in the prevention or attenuation of contrast-induced acute renal failure. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate serum and urinary markers of renal injury, including KIM-1, BMP-7, and TGF-b, along with other biomarkers, in subjects receiving intravenous contrast and correlate their expression with clinical outcomes Study Design: Prospective, multi-centered, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial of a one-time dose of EPO. Subjects will be followed for seven days or until hospital discharge, whichever is longer. Total estimated study duration 3 years.
