Non-Obstructive Coronary Atherosclerosis Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Single Center Study of Perivascular Coronary Inflammation in Patients With Myocardial Ischemia or Infarction With Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries
Among patients with ischemic heart disease who are referred for coronary angiography, a substantial proportion have non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Myocardial infarction (MI) with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA) accounts for 5-20% of patients with MI and preferentially affects women. MINOCA pathogenesis is varied and may include atherosclerotic plaque rupture, plaque erosion with thrombosis, vasospasm, embolization, dissection or a combination of mechanisms. Other patients may have clinically unrecognized myocarditis, or takotsubo syndrome masquerading as MI. Among patients referred for coronary angiography for the evaluation of stable ischemic heart disease, non-obstructive CAD is present in up to ~30% of men and ~60% of women. Stable ischemia with non-obstructive coronary arteries (INOCA) may be due to coronary microvascular dysfunction in up to 40% of these patients. Our understanding of mechanisms of MINOCA and INOCA remain incomplete. Coronary inflammation has been hypothesized as a potential mechanism contributing to coronary spasm in MINOCA and microvascular disease in INOCA.
The PericOronary INflammaTion in Non-Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease (POINT-NOCAD) study is a single-center diagnostic, observational study enrolling men and women with MINOCA or INOCA who are planned to undergo (or underwent) clinically indicated coronary angiography. The research plan is to evaluate coronary inflammation, as measured by the perivascular coronary fat attenuation index from non-invasive coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), in patients with MINOCA and INOCA. ;
