The SHINE-CTO Trial
- Conditions
- Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary AngioplastyChronic Total Occlusion of Coronary ArteryCoronary Artery Disease
- Interventions
- Procedure: Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary InterventionProcedure: Sham Procedure
- Registration Number
- NCT02784418
- Lead Sponsor
- Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation
- Brief Summary
Design: Single center, double-blind, sham-controlled trial that will randomize symptomatic patients with a coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) to CTO percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or a sham procedure. All patients will receive optimal medical therapy.
Treatment:CTO PCI, as per standard clinical practice.
Control: Patients randomized to sham-procedure will undergo only bilateral arterial access, without angiography or PCI being performed.
Secondary Endpoints: (1) Greater improvement in SAQ-7 Summary scores during the entire duration of follow-up (6 months) using a repeated measures analysis (2) Greater improvement in individual components of patients' health status (3) Greater improvement in exercise capacity (4) Similar incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), both peri-procedural and long-term

Group Intervention Description PCI of CTO Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Intervention: PCI of CTO (Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (CTO PCI), as per standard clinical practice. Hospitalized overnight after the procedure, with post procedure monitoring practices as per standard of care for PCI. CTO PCI patients will receive blinded clopidogrel 75 mg daily for 6 months. Sham Procedure Sham Procedure Intervention: Sham procedure Subjects will be blinded to randomization assignment using a combination of conscious sedation and sensory isolation (e.g., blindfold and noise isolation). Control subjects will only undergo a "Sham procedure", wherein they will undergo bilateral arterial access, without angiography or PCI being performed. Hospitalized overnight after the procedure, with post procedure monitoring practices as per standard of care for PCI. Sham group will receive blinded placebo clopidogrel for 6 months.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Greater improvement in disease-specific health status, as assessed by the 7-item Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) Summary Score (SAQ-7, an established measure of health status in patients with coronary artery disease) 1 month
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Similar incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), both peri-procedural and long-term 6 months Greater improvement in SAQ-7 Summary scores during the entire duration of follow-up using a repeated measures analysis 6 months Greater improvement in exercise capacity, as assessed by treadmill exercise stress Prior to and 1 month after index procedure Greater improvement in individual components of patients' health status, as assessed by the EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D) Baseline and 6 months Favorable incremental cost-effectiveness ratio Through study completion, an average of 6 months Greater improvement in individual components of patients' health status, as assessed by the SAQ Physical Limitation, Angina Frequency, and Quality of Life domains of the SAQ-7 score Baseline and 6 months Greater improvement in individual components of patients' health status, as assessed by the Rose Dyspnea Score Baseline and 6 months
