A Study to Evaluate the Use and Safety of CARDIOLITE® in Pediatric Patients With Kawasaki Disease

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Kawasaki Disease
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00162032
Lead Sponsor
Lantheus Medical Imaging
Brief Summary

Determine the predictive value of CARDIOLITE® rest and stress myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) to define a pediatric population with Kawasaki Disease (KD) at high and low risk of developing cardiac events.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this clinical research study is to determine how well CARDIOLITE® rest and stress myocardial (heart) imaging can define the pediatric Kawasaki disease (KD) population into high and low risk categories of developing cardiac (heart) events (complications) from 1 year through 3 years after image completion. The safety of CARDIOLITE® rest and stress heart imaging will also be studied.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Determine the Predictive Value of Cardiolite® Rest and Stress MPI to Define Pediatric Populations With Kawasaki Disease at High and Low Risk of Developing Cardiac Events.3 years

The proportion of all patients who experienced cardiac events among patients with abnormal (SSS \>=4, high risk) and normal (SSS \<4, low risk) Cardiolite MPI scans during the follow-up period. A log-rank statistic (2-sided, alpha = 0.05) was computed to compare cardiac event-free survival in the high risk and low risk groups. The cardiac event rate is the cumulative event rate based on a Kaplan-Meier estimate conditional on the SPECT MPI score result.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Estimate the Performance of Cardiolite® Rest and Stress MPI for the Detection of Myocardial Ischemia in Adolescents and Children Versus Coronary Angiography6 months

Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) for the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease (IHD) relative to coronary angiography. Coronary stenoses of ≥ 50% were classified as disease. SSS \> 4 in MPI was classified as positive for IHD.

Predictive Value of Cardiolite For Cardiac Events6 months

Determine the incidence of cardiac events occurring over a 6 month follow up period in pediatric subjects with normal myocardial perfusion scans.

Incidence of Hard Cardiac Events3 years

Examine the incidence of hard cardiac events (myocardial infarction \[MI\] or cardiac death) in KD subjects with positive and negative MPI scans.

Estimate the Performance of Cardiolite® Rest and Stress MPI for the Detection of Myocardial Ischemia in the Left Anterior Descending (LAD) Artery in Adolescents and Children Versus Coronary Angiography24 hours

Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of SDS for myocardial perfusion corresponding to the left anterior descending (LAD) for the diagnosis of IHD in the distribution of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery relative to coronary angiography based diagnosis were determined. Coronary stenoses of ≥ 50% for arteries associated with LAD territories were classified as LAD disease. SDS LAD \> 1 was classified as positive for IHD for the LAD distribution.
