- NCT06447740

- Peking University First Hospital
- Brief Summary
Although randomized trials have demonstrated there is no benefit of renal-artery stenting in addition to medical therapy for patients with atherosclerosis renal artery stenosis, many patients indeed gained benefit in daily practices after stenting, such as reduction in blood pressure and recovery in renal functions. One important gap is that there is no universal standard to determine whether to stent in these patients. Fraction Flow Reserve (FFR) has been studied for many year in chronic coronary heart disease and FFR-guided revascularization strategy is known to be better than both angiography-guided revascularization and medication alone. Based on the primary finding of FAIR-pilot study (NCT05732077), FFR-guided renal artery stenting is practical.
The overall purpose of the FAIR trial is to compare the clinical outcomes and safety of FFR-guided stenting plus optimal medical treatment (OMT) versus OMT alone in patients with renal-vascular hypertensive patients.
With the 'all comers' design, participants met the inclusive/exclusive criteria will be enrolled, and hyperemic FFR induced by dopamine will be measured in all participants. If FFR is ≥0.80, patients will be treated with OMT alone and follow up. If FFR is \<0.80, participants will be randomized to stenting in the renal artery plus OMT or OMT alone on a 1:1 ratio. The blood pressure and anti-hypertensive medications will be compared before and 3 months after the procedure based on ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, all participants will be followed up for 1 year.
