Plaque mOrphology iMpact on Side Branch Occlusion at oPtical Coherence Tomography Evaluation in Percutaneous Coronary Interventions: The POMPEI Study

Despite recent advances in interventional cardiology, bifurcation coronary artery stenoses (which account for 15-20% of all coronary lesions treated by PCI), remain a challenge for PCI operators with higher rates of failure, in-stent restenosis, stent thrombosis, and recurrent clinical events, when compared to simple non-bifurcation lesions.

POMPEI trial is a prospective observational study. We aim to investigate the impact of morphological plaque characteristics assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) on the risk of developing side branch occlusion (SBO) in bifurcation PCI.

A total of 27 patients undergoing bifurcation PCI will be recruited into the trial. PCI will be performed according to local practice.The bifurcation lesion will be imaged by OCT on at least two time-points for each patient. Plaque morphology will be characterized by OCT. Off-line quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) will be performed before and after PCI and the following QCA parameters will be computed: reference vessel diameter (RVD), lesion length and diameter stenosis (DS) of Main Vessel (MV) and side branch (SB). Blood samples will be taken prior to PCI and 8-12 hours later to determine peri-procedural myocardial injury and infarction following PCI by measuring serum Troponin. The OCT data analysis will be performed in collaboration with Dr Valeria Paradies who has been trained in interventional cardiology in Rotterdam (The Netherlands) with specific interest in intravascular imaging.

In conclusion, we will use OCT to detect specific morphological characteristics which are associated with acute SBO following main vessel stenting. The routine use of OCT during bifurcation PCI to detect those patients at risk of acute SBO following main vessel stenting will allow the PCI operator to implement measures for reducing the risk of SBO, thereby minimizing the risk of peri- and post-PCI angina, preventing peri-procedural myocardial injury and infarction, and improving clinical outcomes.

Study Overview

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.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

We hypothesized that in bifurcation lesion treatment, morphology of the plaque located in the main vessel may impact on the risk of developing SBO.

The objectives of POMPEI study as follows:

Primary objective:

To identify correlation between lipid volume content of MV plaque and risk of SBO (TIMI flow<3)

Secondary objectives:

To identify the plaque morphology characteristics associated with SBO in patients undergoing bifurcation PCI. OCT parameters which will be assessed include: distribution of lipid volume and lipid arc in the MV and around SB ostium before and after stenting; prevalence of healed plaque rupture and erosion and its correlation with SBO; correlation between calcium distribution within the plaque and SBO; correlation between bifurcation angle and SBO; and correlation between angiographic images of haziness at SB ostium and OCT findings.

To determine the prevalence of significant SB ostium stenosis in patients undergoing bifurcation PCI.

To determine the incidences of SBO following bifurcation PCI.

To determine the incidence and extent of peri-procedural myocardial injury and infarction following bifurcation PCI.

To determine correlation between SB lesion extension from the ostium and SBO

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

21 years to 99 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

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
To undertake a proof-of-concept clinical study to investigate the impact of morphological plaque characteristics on the risk of developing SBO in bifurcation lesion treatment
Time Frame: 1year
If we can show that different culprit plaques behave differently, then there is the potential to undertake a larger study to change the way we manage these plaques and therapies to prevent SBO.
