Clinical Trial Summary

This is a pilot, multicenter, real-world, single-visit, low risk, phase IV interventional study to efficiently identify new cases of heart failure (HF) Stage C in subjects who are at risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease in high-volume ambulatory primary care settings in 3 countries in Central America.


Description:

Subjects with 2 or more CV risk factors will be identified and will undergo an NYHA score assessment. If the NYHA score is ≥ II, the serum NT-proBNP concentration will be determined on-site on the same day. If the serum NT proBNP concentration is ≥ 125 pg/mL, the subject will be referred to a country specific central echocardiography laboratory for a transthoracic echocardiogram to measure the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and relevant structural heart disease.

Intervention

Diagnostic Test:
NYHA assessment
The New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification of HF
Procedure:
Serum NT-proBNP concentration
Subjects with NYHA score = II will undergo a rapid, on site serum NT-proBNP test on the same day of the visit. Roche CARDIAC proBNP+ test, using the Cobas h 232 device, is a quantitative immunological test for the determination of NT-proBNP in heparinized venous blood.
Diagnostic Test:
Transthoracic Ecocardiogram
Subjects with a serum NT-proBNP result of = 125 pg/mL at Visit 1 will be referred to a study cardiologist for a transthoracic echocardiogram to assess LVEF and relevant structural heart disease

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Number of Cases of HF stage C Proportion of subjects with HF Stage C among those with 2 or more CV risk factors 5 months
Secondary Comparison of number of subjects diagnosed with HF stage C Comparison of the number of subjects diagnosed with l HF Stage C versus the time matched historical proportion at the same study sites 5 months
Secondary Percentage of subjects with CV risk factos Percentage of subjects with each listed CV risk factor among those with HF Stage C 5 months
Secondary Percentage of subjects with CV risk factors among participating countries Percentage of subjects with each listed CV risk factor among participating countries 5 months
Secondary Ratio of subjects with each listed CV risk factor between subjects with and without HF Stage C Ratio of presence versus absence of each listed CV risk factor between subjects with overall HF Stage C and without HF 5 months
Secondary Incidence of equality of HF Stage C among participating countries Proportion and equality of proportions of HF Stage C subjects among participating countries 5 months
Secondary Mean NT-proBNP levels among subjects diagnosed with HF Stage C versus subjects with no HF Comparison of the mean NT-proBNP (= 125 pg/mL) levels among subjects diagnosed with overall HF Stage C versus subjects with no HF 5 months
