A Study of INO-1001, an Intravenous PARP (Poly [ADP Ribose] Polymerase) Inhibitor in Acute Heart Attack Patients Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Acute Myocardial Infarction
Registration Number
NCT00271765
Lead Sponsor
Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corporation
Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety of INO-1001 in subjects who have experienced a heart attack and are to be treated with coronary angioplasty.

Detailed Description

Currently, heart attacks may be treated with clot-dissolving medicines, coronary angioplasty, or a combination of both. Unblocking of blood flow to the heart following coronary angioplasty can cause side effects such as heart tissue and blood vessel damage, abnormal heart rhythms and death of heart muscle cells.

In animal studies, the PARP enzyme has been shown to be involved in damaging heart muscle after the sudden unblocking of coronary arteries. INO-1001 blocks the PARP enzyme, and so it may reduce heart damage in humans who have had their coronary arteries unblocked after a heart attack.

A total of 40 patients will be selected and randomly assigned to either INO-1001 or placebo (sugar water). One dose only of the drug will be given prior to coronary angioplasty. Patients will be followed until 30 days after surgery.

The following information will be gathered: vital signs, symptoms, physical examination, blood and urine tests, electrocardiograms, and other information from medical charts.

The information provided in this listing is disclosed solely to comply with regulatory requirements. The drug INO-1001 has not yet been approved for marketing and is only available to patients who participate in a clinical trial and are chosen for the treatment group.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The safety of INO-1001 will be measured by evaluation of symptoms, vital signs, physical examination, laboratory data, electrocardiograms, etc.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The effect of INO-1001 on heart muscle damage will be evaluated by blood tests. Other blood tests will measure how INO-1001 is absorbed and removed by the body after exposure to different doses.
