Protective Effect of Early High Dose stATins On Cardiovascular and Renal Events in Acute Coronary Syndrome (PRATO-ACS)

September 10, 2019 updated by: Anna Toso, Centro Cardiopatici Toscani

The Protective Effect of Early High Dose High-intensity Statins on Cardiovascular and Renal Events in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Registration of all ACS patients (STEMI and NSTEMI) admitted to the cardiology ward and scheduled for early invasive strategy. The aim is to evaluate the protective effects of early (on admission) high-dose high-potency statin therapy on early and mid-term cardiac and renal events in this subset of patients.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

Statin-naive patients and those on statin therapy with ACS who are admitted to the cardiology ward of our public (National Health Service) hospital and are scheduled for early invasive strategy receive immediately on admission, always before angiographic procedure, high-dose statin therapy. Either atorvastatin 80 mg or rosuvastatin 40 mg is administered at the discretion of the physician. During hospitalization various pertinent cardiac and renal parameters, including hematological, angiographic, clinical data are registered in a dedicated database. Clinical follow-up and hematological analysis are done 1 month after discharge. A second follow-up, either clinical or by telephone, is done 1 year after discharge.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Acute renal function changes
Time Frame: Within 72 hours after hospital admission
Changes in creatinine and/or cystatine values
Within 72 hours after hospital admission
Inflammatory profile changes
Time Frame: up to 1 month
Changes from baseline in CRP values
up to 1 month
Lipid profile changes
Time Frame: up to 1 month
Changes from baseline in cholesterol values
up to 1 month
Platelet count
Time Frame: up to 1 month
Changes from baseline in platelet count
up to 1 month
Platelet volume
Time Frame: up to 1 month
Changes from baseline in platelet volume
up to 1 month
Platelet aggregation profile
Time Frame: up to 1 month
Changes from baseline in platelet reactivity (Verify Now)
up to 1 month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Major cardiovascular adverse events
Time Frame: up to 12 months
Death, myocardial infarction, stroke or coronary revascularization
up to 12 months
Renal function changes
Time Frame: Changes from baseline at 1 month
glomerular filtration rate
Changes from baseline at 1 month
Major adverse cardiovascular and renal adverse events
Time Frame: up to 1 month
Death, myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization or glomerular filtration rate reduction > = 25% compared to baseline
up to 1 month

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Impact of age and frailty profile on primary and secondary outcomes
Time Frame: Up to 1 month
Frailty evaluation (combination of FRAIL scale questionnaire and hand-grip strength measurement)
Up to 1 month

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
December 1, 2016

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
December 1, 2025

Study Completion (Anticipated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
